To: NorCal Cobras Headed to Sonoma Wine Country Cobra Classic II



Multiple complaints about Highway 80 conditions

Heads Up - There have been multiple complaints about the condition of road surfaces and driving your Cobras on Highway 80 West from Sacramento headed down towards Sonoma. I checked with a few others who drive that route regularly and there ARE new sections going in an major transitions that can damage the lower front of your car on Highway 80 if you are not extra careful and aware of surface changes.

This is an attempt to reach out to those folks where were originally caravanning and meeting at Brookfields in Rancho and Pavillions in Sacto, to let everyone know we'll all be leaving about 30 minutes earlier out of Sacramento. Maybe we'll cross paths on the highway departing Sacramento, or through Lake Berryessa.

ALTERNATE ROUTE OPTION:
Many folks have decided to take the scenic back way through Lake Berryessa instead. The get-together starts at 10:00a.m. The back route can take up to 2-1/2 hours depending on traffic that early on Sunday.


Brookfields Group UPDATE:
Now departing at 07:45 a.m.


ALTERNATE DIRECTIONS:
Sac to Sonoma Directions, compliments of Phil G: (Thanks Phil), either everyone will be going the right direction or the wrong direction, but the good news is - everyone will be going in the SAME direction - what the hell, we all just wanted to go on a drive to somwhere anyway 'eh. Hahahahah!
