Pic of The Day – Putah Creek Café – Winters, CA
 

2nd Dry Run and change in route
 

We made our second Dry Run today, thanks Lyent and Oliver it was a blast and we have fine tuned the route. So everyone gets more twisties time. These Dry Runs are very important because you see obstacles and traffic that you would never see on the web maps. We found that there was going to be too much traffic (we pretty much knew that) on hwy 29. So the new route will take us on Silverado Trail to hwy 121 to Wooden Valley Road to I-80.

Silverado Trail takes you by the smaller scenic Wineries bypassing all the traffic on hwy 29. This road will let you take a break from the switchbacks on hwy 128 and let your equilibrium stabilize. Then back onto the twisties at hwy 121 bypassing Napa. This section of the run is a lot smoother road wise than hwy 128. Our last stop before saying our farewells will be at The Tower Market at Suisun Valley Rd and Rockville Rd

I will have a map up soon.

One more thing, the breakfast this morning at Putah Creek Café was absolutely the best!

Only two weeks away, can’t wait.

We will probably opt to sit out on the patio, availability of getting seated is quicker, plus the weather should be great for outdoor seating.

Here is a pic of the outdoor patio, right on Main St with all of the old buildings that make up Winters.

Where are the meet spots?

You guys need to come up with the meet up spots. I am coming from the opposite direction (Sac). I had mentioned that there were a few coming out of Fairfield and suggested the Starbucks off Green Valley Road actually it's on Business Center Drive on the North side of I-80.

As far as closer meet up spots for caravans, I had mentioned that all could use this thread to query the other attendees on a caravan and use it for a sign up thread also.

I do know that my co organizer stylnZ (Lyent) is coming 4sur and is out of Fairfield. And some others mentioned Fairfield also. But for S.Bay, The City and S.Jose peeps, they might want to get something going around their area and then coordinate with Fairfield peeps for time to meet up.
