Foosh, we got some sweet roads around here too (well..maybe not best just now). I've spent a lot of time exploring them on the Guzzi and a previous Harley. They gotta be even better in an F-Type. When the steed comes in, I'll show you some great hollows to carve.

Or until all the water is gone. Nonetheless, NoCal is hard to beat on this planet in terms of pure physical beauty coupled with civilization.

Oh absolutely. South AA Co., where I live has some of the best. I was just feeling nostalgic about my time in the No Cal Bay Area, but overall I prefer living here, with the exception of Jan-Feb. Ten months a year, it's great here.

Just 2 weeks to go! Everybody ready?!? Cars washed/waxed? I went to a Cars & Coffee today. Huge, huge turnaround (probably 1000+ cars). Was fun. But I'm really looking forward to a small, focused get together. And actually driving our cars not just parking them. Hopefully we'll get the same type of weather as today.

You need to have someone on an overpass etc to get a video of the F-parade.

Good idea. What I'm probably going to do is during our pitstop I'm going to drive ahead and setup my GoPro along the side of the road on a tripod. Or, if I get more adventurous, I'm going to hover my drone above the road to get a real bird's eyeview of the parade
