My guess is that going up would the time for sight seeing, in that Sunday folks would probably want to go straight home...

Any thoughts??

I'm going to go up the fast route (freeway) so I can get my car teched early (around 4). I'm going out to dinner with relatives in Reno and then back for the 8pm driver's meeting.

Thanks to all for the 11 AM departure - those of us in the west and south Bay appreciate it. Dinobyte and anyone else from the mid-Peninsula, we plan to take off from OSH in Foster City at 9:45 - meet you on the west side of the parking lot. Please confirm by Wednesday that you can make it at that time and/or exchange with me cell #s (by private message is fine).

Regarding the route up - I suggest we leave that up to the group when we meet in Walnut Creek. I am not familar with too many alternates off I-80. It appears a fun route might be getting off at Auburn and going through Grass Valley and then back on to I-80 near Emigrant Gap - a route I have not taken and would take about 45 extra minutes (per Mapquest). Otherwise not sure of choices that don't involve considerably more time. Coming home on Sunday, as Mark suggested, may be the time to look for a more gentle ride.
