July 9th or 10th Skyline run

Hey gang,

How 'bout a run around Skyline on July 9th or 10th?
(or wherever if anyone has suggestions)

I've PM'd a few of you and there seems to be a split between the two days, so let's see who else can make it and when.

Jimz68 suggested an afternoon run followed by a casual dinner. How does that sound?

UPDATED 6/29/05:
TIME: 9:30 AM
DATE: Sunday, July 10th
PLACE: Parking lot at Arastradero & Page Mill & 280 (unless someone has a better idea)

Hope to see you soon!

Hey, I may even join in on this one. GCM doesn't have anything going on that weekend. Plus, I may have my suspension upgrades, so its a great excuse to get out and put it to the test! See if I can keep up with Lag and Campos around the twistys...

I work every Saturday, so the 10th is a natch, and I would prefer a morning run because of the reduced traffic alone...

I'll be shooting a Solo I (auto-x) at Golden Gate Fields on the 10th. Saturday would work for me.

Hey guys and gals, count us in for the drive. The 9th or 10th works, sometime in the afternoon.

Sorry GroupB, I'm not getting up on a weekend for an 8am run - you had your show last weekend.

Looks like we're still split on the day with a slight lean toward Sunday. Keep posting your replies!

Welcome chefdog96! Lookin' forward to meeting you!

I guess I forgot to include that either day works for me. Keep me updated! I don't know if anyone else is interested from GCM, but I will post the details once a date, time and meeting location is set!

Either works for me, but the sooner it's settled, the better. Also, I'm kinda with Nrminer05, so afternoon is preferred!

I'm a definite maybe!

If it's sunday, I'll have to bring the baby! But she likes drives....... But if you plan an afternoon run, look for some non-standard roads, as skyline, 84 and 92 get pretty crowded. So does 9 further south. Some of the roads we went on Sanday (hay, what the heck, I was the only mini in a bunch of WRXs!) were good, but Tunitas Creek is real, real rough. Did I say it was real rough?

Matt

ps, Tunitas creek is pretty rough....

Okay, how 'bout a compromise on the time? Does 9:30 sound good?
Someone better bring donuts!

TIME: 9:30 AM
DATE: Sunday, July 10th
PLACE: Parking lot at Arastradero & Page Mill & 280 (unless someone has a better idea)

If anyone can suggest a different area from the Skyline roads, I'm sure we're all open for ideas.

Nice pic, Lyle!

Sorry we'll miss you Steve!

Looks like we have a few folks from Sacramento coming down with me to join in the run. This little run is shaping up nice. Is SFJames coming? One more person that I can try and keep up with!
