The September 2001 Bay Area 02 adventure will be in Santa
Cruz County. We will meet at
Foothill College off 280 at El Monte/Moody Road in Los Altos. Plan to meet at 10:00am and depart at
10:30am. This is about a 90 mile
drive with some very aggressive accents and descends, and a good mix of
twisties and sweepers.
The route is generally as follows. From Foothill College we will go up Moody Road to Buena
Vista then to Hwy. 35 (Skyline Blvd.) then down to Hwy 236 through Big Basin
for a rest stop. Then on to
Jamison Creek for a super nasty twistie uphill to the long sweepers of Empire
Grade and south into Santa Cruz to Natural Bridges.
This marks the start of our coastal route past Steamer Lane
and the Lighthouse, skip the Boardwalk (too many touristas), then on to the
Yacht Harbor, Pleasure Point, Shark’s Cove, Capitola, and finally Soquel.
Once we’ve gathered in Soquel we’ll climb back
up into the SC Mountains for a social gathering at Burrell School
Vineyards. Saturday will be one of
the wineries regular tasting days, and for food please either bring a picnic
lunch, or stop at Summit Store right before the winery.
