Yes the runs will meet at the top of MT Hamilton ... two split groups one clockwise going mines toward MT Ham and the other running thru reservoir rd going counter clockwise ..... the two groups should pass opposite each other on the way up or down the mountain ....

Breakfast is catered and a gift to all of you from Kevin at Porsche of Livermore ....

Last year we had a great turn out and look forward to seeing you all again .....

Steve .........

Steve, you are the man! Thank you for coordinating this run every year. If the brake bleed tonight goes well, I will be there.

i didn't make the run up to mt hamilton but here's a video of yesterdays event. the first 4 minutes is of our drive out there (sweet flat six sounds), then of the cars in the back lot and finally a short clip of my drive home. it was good to meet some new folks and catch up with old friends. happy new year.

Steve, thanks for organizing a great event from a first timer.
I drove up from the San Jose side, and minutes after
I arrived at the peak, dozens of Porsches rolled up.

A beautiful windless clear day and spectacular view.

There are a few curves that are 'Mini-Pikes Peak',
steep drop-offs w no guardrails and no shoulders on either side.

It became interesting due to the large number of cyclists
-ascending & descending- that resulted in a few hair-raising
moments, for both parties. I met several riders descending
at high speed only inches from the double yellow line,
meeting me mid-point around blind curves.

Several times progress came to a full stop, due to blind curves +
cyclists on my right. There isn't enough room for 2 vehicles and bikes,
somebody is going over the precipice.

Troubling, when the slowly ascending cyclists heard me approaching at speed,
quite a few groups made absolutely no efforts to move from the center
of the lane to the edge, and some continued to ride 2 and 3 abreast.

No way they couldn't hear my air-cooled flat six approaching at redline!
The cyclist's disregard for road manners/physical injury is puzzling.

The majority of cyclists did a great job of sharing the road.
I'll do it again next year, with a drone ahead of me clearing the way!
