empire grade is off hwy 236 which is off hwy 9... so a meeting place closer to cupertino, saratoga, los gatos, campbell, etc would be closer to the jump off.
a word of warning, i've heard it's getting really HOT around hwy 9 lately, so be careful getting there. i don't think there would ever be much traffic on empire grade, but you never know. i was up there about 6 months ago and didn't see a single car for about 15 miles.

I'll try to be there!
I was up in the Santa Cruz Mountains last weekend for Doc Wongs driving clinic and it was
*HOT* with *Bears* on the main roads (hwy 9 & 35 & Skyline Blvd.), but nothing really on the side roads, 
but do look out guys.
There have been a lot of Motorcycle accidents
and they're SERIOUS about cracking down.!
2 months ago I personally witnessed the pulling over of 12 YES
twelve motorcycles at one time (they blocked the road... Hwy 35) !! 
Drive sharp, but safe!!!

Alright you guys, count me in for this one. I'll be getting into town in the late morning... I agree that a meeting point closer to the drive would be better, but then I don't live there so I don't know. 
Someone hammer out a specific time and agenda!

Okay peeps, it looks like SteveUCI and myself are leaving SoCal at around 4:00am to meet up with you guys! You gotta love it! Drive breakneck speed for 6 hours straight just so we can meet up with you and drive another couple hours! 
I think we're gonna be taking 101 if you guys are changing the meeting spot from Milpitas, though.
