2011 End of Summer Run - Hold the Date 10/8/11

[cobrasnake]

7:30 - Depart Rock House - you guys are on your own for leaving by this time. There is a Chevron Station just north of CA 92 in HMB on CA 1.

8:30± or earlier if you like - Breakfast at the 3-Zero Cafe @ Half Moon Bay Airport - 5 miles north of CA 92 on the west side. Park in lot on north side of restaurant. 3-Zero Cafe - Half Moon Bay, CA - they don't have their own site.

9:45± - depart for Tour. I expect two groups. All will leave at the same time: one will head south on CA 1 to Santa Cruz and then head east on CA 17 to Granite Creek Road and will loop back over the freeway to Scotts Valley Dr. Turn left onto Scotts Valley Drive until Macleod Way (.9 mi) where you make a U-turn to 4900 Scotts Valley Dr. - Canepa Design. Canepa Design. This drive is a more direct, less winding road, and is great for co-pilots who don't care for the twisties.

The other group will also go down CA 1, but only 18 miles to San Gregorio (CA 84) turn left heading inland until the group hits CA 35 (about 10 miles, @ Alice's Restaurant) and will then turn right heading south on CA 35 (Skyline Blvd). Travel on CA 35 for approximately 20 miles before heading west on CA 17 for 7± miles. Take CA 17 to Scotts Valley Drive (exit 5). Turn left onto Scotts Valley Drive until Macleod Way (.9 mi) where you make a U-turn to 4900 Scotts Valley Dr. - Canepa Designs. Canepa Design

11-11:20 AM± - Assuming we leave at 9:45 promptly, the group that takes CA 1 should get there a little after 11 while the other will arrive about 20 minutes later.

No Host lunch will be about a mile away at 230 Mt. Hermon Road at Bruno's BBQ (Bruno's BBQ: The Original California BBQ) where they have a diverse menu including salads and lots of BBQ. My guess is that we will be heading to lunch by 1 PM.

Due to the length of this Run, I did not schedule a winery stop as it would have made too long a day - sorry. The weather is currently forecast to be wonderful for driving, after mid week rain - this should be a great way to close out the 2011 driving season.
