NorCal: Caravanning to Monterey Car Week Aug 2012

[Bxx1]

Good idea Duane.... I will be taking the Hwy 1 route... from Sacramento to the Golden Gate Bridge south.... unfortunately I have to drive I-80 to 101 for the 1st leg of the trip. Might stop at Infineon for a few gallons of 112 octane, top off. I should have a full tank of at least 100 octane by Wed. am.

I anticipate leaving Wed. around 9-10am.

I'm headed down on Wednesday as well, will probably do the I-80 to 37 to 101 route and hit the coast in San Fransico for the cool ride the rest of the way down. But would like to head out early (maybe 6am-ish) to beat the heat with a stop for breakfast in Novado to let the commute traffic clear.

Yes, that is usually the route I take. I-80 to Hwy 37 to 101- left immediately past the GG Bridge and then proceed South on Hwy 1. Temperatures should be in the hi 60's by the time we hit the GG Bridge.

I am now thinking of leaving Sac around 7AM to avoid the valley heat/traffic putting us at the GG Bridge before 11AM. Breakfast in S.F or the nice seaside cafe, with the T-Rex outside, in Montara south of Pacifica.
