Buddy Rob (from GKR event on Dan's bday) mentioned that a few weeks back a kid died in the interseaction, he ended up broadsiding a car on his bike.

Def a fun drive, but there were a few sections that I was like, "whoa this is a tight area". Anyone feel this way too?

Thanks for setting this up, Mac and Vu. Feel free to add me to the list of drivers. To help you guys put a name to the face, I was the one with buzzed hair, Berkeley shirt and virgin bone-stock black S (see last pic).

Thanks Peter for the jumpstart in the morning - I recently topped my battery off with distilled water, and heard when you do that, the battery needs to go through a couple discharges before it starts holding a charge.

Yup, the drive down the 1 along the Sonoma Coast was breathtaking. There were tons of bicyclists - it must've been a race or something with all the CHiPs guiding traffic. Would've been interesting to see 21 S's competing for road space with dozens of bikers! I couldn't find my digicam that morning, but here are some thumbnails from my camera phone (click to enlarge).

I had a blast on Skaggs, and at breakfast talking about X-ray vision and cellulite! Looking forward to future meet-ups.

Some battle scars from Skaggs and Harris. It's getting pretty bad.

I did notice a lot of stones flying. I don't get this with regular traffic. What gives?
