I'm down for the drive but I need to see if I get a day off at work first. The First would be best, let's hope for some good weather.
I'm in RP, you should post this on BayBimmerz.net for those who don't follow this forum.

You can have some fun on it if you are just cruising, have you ever looked at the map of it?

This is Skaggs from a GTG earlier this year...

Skaggs looks like its alot easier than this GTG we did after that huge Marina meet we did. This one is from the Oakland Hills...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=0BPkDzZfKX4 << might wanna forward to 2mins since the begining is highway driving to get there and sorry its shaky. I had to drive and film at the same time =)

Coming from 101, it starts wide and gets narrower near the ocean. I haven't been all the way through, but the part I did drive was a blast.
Sorry I've been MIA, thanks for taking over. I'll be there.

Skaggs is a ton of fun. I've done it several times and it never gets boring. We make the first observation point after the lake to the bridge one lap and take it from there, never had any problem with the po-lice. I'm definately going, cant wait!

and another thought, that gas station has a very steep driveway that my car can't get into without scraping. So i would recommend Starbucks, it's just south and has a much better entrance, plus it's right next to the freeway on-ramp aswell.
