Road up to Alice's Warning

[Steve252531]

I bought a 24 piece brush set from Michaels for about $10 about a year ago. This set had a large assortment of tips that works well for touching up spots. You may also want to pick up some Dupli-color Scratch Fix 2 in 1, NG SF 125 clear coat, depending on the paint you use. The Dupli-color clear seems to have worked out pretty well on my Dupont Chroma base paint.

Ed and I drove from 92 to Alice's for lunch today, Sunday. OMG - first we had to wait for 10-15 minutes at a flagman about half to Alices to let traffic flow the other way. They were actively paving the northbound lanes and gravel and tar was flying everywhere. To minimize rocks and tar, we limped into Alice's driving about 15 mph and that's when we weren't dodging construction trucks. I don't think the folks behind us were any too happy with our slow pace but WTF, damage was kept to a minimum.

The good news was that the weather was hot and the crowds plentiful. I don't know how things were on the road south of 84, but I'll bet there was a lot of northern gravel scattered along the way. It seems they are working just on weekends. 84 east was fine going home but we probably won't be going up there soon without an armored personnel carrier.

Yep, I finally found out the only negative (besides cost) of the AVON's. They pickup and sling gravel like a bead blaster.

Tom,
You should have followed us. When Dave posted that, we were planning a bike run with daughter and son-in-law. So I decided to go Mc Keen rd through Morgan Hill, to Watsonville rd over to 152. Dropped into Watsonville and stopped at Gizdich Ranch for a break then over to Capitola for lunch. Then came back old San Jose Ave to Summit rd then cut off on old Santa Cruz hwy around Lexington Reservoir. Excellent ride and weather.
