Bay Area Drive

[DeaneG]

Lets see who is all interested in the drive. Going south from Ritz on Route 1 to San Gregorio, then take 84 back to 35 and then 92 back to route 1, an hour drive according to Google!!! Looks nice and curvy.

There are also some nice coastal trails in the area around the Ritz. And a great golf course.

That is the same drive we just did for the range test except in the opposite direction. It is indeed a very nice drive!!

It is a much prettier drive in reverse, IMO, and the 84 is quite fun to drive down. And when you come out on the 1 and the sun is shining, the first view of the cliffs and the ocean is stunning.

Not being from this area I will be leaving the final route to the locals. I was just looking at Google Maps. I have driven to Monterey from Half Moon Bay. Maybe it's time of day dependent, I liked going south on Route 1 better than going north.

Of course, I just think 84 is more fun to drive down than 92. It feels like a slalom course at some points.

Yeah, but the majority of the beautiful parts are south of 84. That said, cars do love to race up the mountain as well. I saw two groups of 911s doing that just this morning.

So does anyone know of a café that does V60 in the area?

Morning is probably best - before the roads get crowded. We did our test drive at 9am, I believe, and the timing was really good.

Yep morning is preferable… my family is slow to move on the weekend, and it means I can enjoy the drive without feeling guilty

The drive is scheduled for the morning of June 25th

As of now we have 5 Lucids, one possible additional Lucid, and one possible Taycan. Anybody else interested?
