attention bay area motorers

does anyone living in the bay want to meet up for a run? I live in the oakland area and i usually run with some buddies through Grizzly Peaks up on the hills, its located at the Fish Ranch exit on highway 13. if theres another place to go for a run, that would be cool, i just wanna attend a meet and run with some fellow motorers. i would of gone to some Norcal runs but my work or school usually gets in the way

I wouldnt be able to make it, but if youre looking foe a great drive, I found a nice road in the hills above Berkeley. I dont remember the street, but the entrance is right next to the golf course.

I would love to run with you, all but you are in the wrong Bay Area

Plus in Tampa we don't have any of those annoying, what do you call them?

Hills.

Hey Crazy, check out NorCal MINIs, if you haven't already. They're in the Regional Forums, under United States::West. Also at:
http://www.norcalminis.com/
There are a couple of events this week-end. A chocolate festival in Oakdale on Saturday, and a British car show in Dixon on Sunday.
The next monthly run is coming up in early June.
