Grizzly Peak + Redwood Road sounds great to me. Also keep in mind that Pinehurst is right off Redwood and IMHO is an even better (though shorter) twisty than Redwood is. It also has no views to speak of, but hey, who has time to look at the views when you're haulin' ass?!!

As far as food goes, I know a great breakfast spot in Castro Valley, called Doug's Place. It gets really packed though, so if we want to start there, we probably'd need to meet up a little earlier. Oh, and it's right at the beginning of Redwood Road.

Yes. There's one *awesome* spot where you can see both bridges...it's a little dirt side-road...could easily fit 5 or 6 cars, and then another spot about 100 meters down the road where you can fit another 4 or 5 (nice view but not so easy to take pictures from)

Ok let me know if this is correct:

When?
11:30am-12:00pm CHECK

Where?
From what I read we need to pick one of these:

Route 1: Empire grade and meet in Saratoga or Los Gatos

Route 2: Calaveras Road and meet in Milpitas

Route 3: Skyline Blvd to Grizzly Peak and meet in Milpitas

Route 4: Redwood Rd and meet in Milpitas

So far if we meet in Milpitas (In-N-Out) we can take route 2,3, or 4.
If we want to go with Route 4 it would be easier to meet in Saratoga or Los Gatos. MeCCaJM, maybe we need a new thread with a poll? I think we should determine a Route by tomorrow 8am so there is no confusion.

When we detemine which Route to take we can decide on the lunch destination for those interested. For those who can't make it to the drive and only want to socialize just show up a little before 11:30.

Who?

ok everyone, sorry it's so late.. but i talked to MrMack, and we're gonna meet at Micro Center @ 12pm.. that's at Mercado in Santa Clara, and we're gonna do the empire grade drive. we figure that Micro center will have enough parking for us to all meet up.. Hopefully everyone is down to go other then the people who have replied saying that they can't..
