Mt. Diablo drive/tour soon anyone?

Dede,

My U2 pilot has some questions... I'm not sure if you had a meeting location in mind for Hayward. There is a parking lot indicated at the arrow.

He's not sure which building is Albertsons, 1, 2 or 3?

Thanks!
Reporting back to the pilot...........................with answers to his questions.

1.Regarding the Hayward meeting place, where you have the red arrow pointing to parking lot is not the parking lot, the parking lot next to the one you pointed out right next door is the one,right off the East bound exit for Clawiter Road. (corner of Eden Landing Road and Clawiter Road) There is a Eden Plaza sign right in front of you when you make the exit off Hwy 92.

2.Regarding San Ramon, Albertson's building would be #1
Thanks so much BoxsterBob. Your the best!!! This will help some people who are not familiar with the areas and such.

For your enjoyment some great maps of Mt. Diablo here.
Here is a link from Kevin my husband of Mt. Diablo cam:

Is their a way to transfer the maps to the "See The World Tour II" post?

If you check the Gallery you'll see the aerial views in there. All you then need to do is to link to them as an image.

Tom, is there a way to delete pics? After the 10th, those arial shots can go.

The issue with deleting the images is then the links all become broken.
 
According to the weather forecast for this weekend, it will be in mid 60's to low 70's plus sunny to partly cloudy. If wifey don't feel like watching the AX this weekend @ Monster Park, I would take her somewhere to enjoy drving top down..better yet, drive to PCH 1 route/stops to get familiar with it and start planning :D I don't know if it's going to be as organized as dedes :eek: ..hehehehehehe! j/k :D
 
I'm a firm believer that any forecast over three days is pure specualtion. Hell, I've heard meteorologists claim that anything beyond 24 hrs. is a crap shoot.
 
Albertson's is building #1

Eden Plaza Industrial Parking Lot is on the corner of Clawiter Road & Eden Landing Road. Right when you exit off Hwy 92 there is a "Eden Plaza Sign" in front of you. Anybody on Hwy 92 going West exit off Clawiter Road go over the freeway going south on Clawiter Road and Eden Plaza should be on your left. Park and wait there. Easy access back on Hwy 92.

I had a thought while washing the Boxster and wish I would have come up with it earlier. Many people have mods/hacks on their cars that others are considering. This would have been a good opportunity to show and tell, i.e., exhausts, short shifter or options that people may want to check out.

I have a short list:

De Snorked
B&M short shift
Clear tails and sides
7mm spacers front, 15mm spacers rear
Full Supple leather interior
Beige interior with Black Lloydes mats (Deviated :) )
Garmin GPS
I'm sure there are others...

I know Tom has Natural Brown Interior and Basalt Black with BBS rims, a killer combo in my opinion!

Whatcha all got? :D

Well at least you got the Natural Brown part right :eek:

My color predates Basalt Black, which has silver flakes, and is a 'cool' black. My Black Metallic has gold flakes which goes quite well with the warm color of the Natural Brown interior. The rims on my car are similar to some of the BBS styles but are lightweight Fikse FM10s. On a side note, it took me an hour to get them presentable for Saturday and I could easily spend another 3 hours on them - but that ain't gonna happen as they pass the 10' test :D

For those interested, an almost complete list of my hacks can be found on my personal page.

I know Barry has a few interesting things he's done to his car...
 
I haven't seen a time posted for meeting up, what did you all decide?

I'm coming from San Jose and it looks like there is just 1 meeting up place, Bridgepoint Shopping Center?
 
So far what I got is this:
-02' Headlight and Brake light
-Clear Side Marker
-18" Carrera lighweight wheels (on tuesday :D )
-de-snorkled (hopefully by tomorrow :D ) with the help of Bob and Blink
-A very expensive cup holder. i mean the best looking cup holder ever (IMHO). On a turns and fast accelaration, it adjust by itself so the drink wont spill and when it get quiet, it talks to me and act as my GPS but sometimes I get reminded once in awhile when i get carried away on turns.
It still has 1.0 version as Im the original owner but has the capability of *ver. 2.0. In regards of wind sensor and temp. reminder. the only thing that sucks is, it's very annoying once you dont turn off or follow the reminder/sensor..you know what i mean!

*version 2.0 update, updates include Wind Sensor to remind that its windy when the top is down. And Temp reminder... About every 3 minutes it reminds of how cold or warm it is in the car.
 
In addition to San Mateo, which departs at 9 am, there's also Hayward (though it doesn't look like anybody plans to meet there) and San Ramon. The time for San Ramon is 10am with a 10:30am departure time.
