Anyone in the Concord, Walnut Creek or far East Bay interested in a Mt. Diablo climb? :cool: (with your Element, of course)!

I'd love to climb a mountain in my E! :)

Wow...Mt Diablo thread jumped out at me. I grew up in Concord, went to Mt Diablo High School (a LONG time ago!). Is castlerock park still there? (For that matter, is mt diablo High School still there?)

If I was closer, I'd go!

I'm there. I am in Danville / Alamo 3 times a week. Tell me when.:D

I'd be interested too... the Ridgeline owners club had a meet up there I believe last year... maybe we could invite them along also... would make for an interesting meet.

..may even get a chance to meet those from both sites that are planning on attending the Tahoe camping trip (and maybe convince some that aren't):smile:

Hi all you brave souls who responded ... I am eager to meet you all. Let's meet at the top of Mt. Diablo to escape at least a bit of the heat and at the same time compare "E"'s ! I am thinking of Saturday 6/17/06 right at Noon.

The reason I have chosen 6/17/06 is that on Monday 6/19/06 there will be construction begun and if you know about construction on roads, you will know that your travel time will be doubled!

If you want additional info on Mt. Diablo or how to get to an access road you may call 925-837-2525 or you can visit Mt. Diablo online by going to
www.parks.ca.gov and then clicking on Mount Diablo.

Hope to see a lot of "E"'s there on the 17th!

Take care!

Val

Darn I missed it lets do it again but somewhere easier to get to.

i don't think you missed it, but a dating error

Hi all ...

Ok, Ok ... I recently had a stroke and that's why the date mixup ... Let's not meet 6/17 ... cause that date is already passed!!! Let's meet instead on
Saturday, July 1 at the top of Mt. Diablo ... Sorry about all the mixup .. definately my fault! let me know who's coming ... hope it's a huge turnout!

Val

Count me in!!
:D :D :D :D
Would we want to add a trip to the auto museum after that?

sounds like fun, i need to follow someone up, i don't know my way

Hi all ...

Just a reminder about the Mt. Diablo climb on 7/1/06. Plan to be up top by
12 Noon ... for those of you unclear about what's "up there" or how to get "up there", you can visit the Mt. Diablo or California Site at www.Parks.ca.gov
There you will find great instruction about how to get to the park entrances, what's available up top, etc ... See you all on the 1st!

Val

Folks, I would love to join you. But I've already planned a camping trip for the 4 day weekend. I know you have already moved it once. How about moving it back to 7/15?

where are we meeting, at the summit?
what are some activity we can do there.
i want to make it more than just a drive.

and where do we park?

Thanks

Hi all ...

There's a lot of questions regarding what to see and do on Mt. Diablo. I have only been "up there" once and recall that it is a very scenic place. I would recommend bringing your camera as the views from "up there" are truly amazing. PLEASE visit the web site for Mt. Diablo. It is loaded with information about what to see and do, parking, picnic tables ... etc. Go to
www.parks.ca.gov. Thanks and hope to see as many of you up there as is possible.

Val

unfortunately I wont be able to join you all like I'd hoped :cry: . The wife and I are going to Santa Rosa for the weekend and a bbq is planned for Saturday...

....have some extra fun for me and take lots of pics.

....as I'm now in 'E'-possesion again. Not sure about DW's hours on Sat, so it'll just be me. Might bring the Greenspeed recumbent trike to tool around in, so I'll have an even stranger vehicle to show off...

Damn! I can't make it. Have fun up there, and post plenty of pictures...

lets get a tally up.
if including me thats 2(right?)
i wanna have a group activity type thing up there...

This'll be my first road trip in a new E in a little more than 2 months--hopefully the idiot gods will be kind to me...

I'm a maybe. :| Isnt it supposed to be like 90 degrees out there???:confused: I love my clouds and fog and 60 degrees at the coast :):)

Printed out a broucher what we can do, a nice map of everything...

Presented it to my lady.....

(Her) I'm not messing up my sevens for that.

(Me)Haha...

(Her)And you have to work...why do you want to rush to go climb some mountain?

(Me)no reason...

And if she wasn't my world....I am officially not going and is visiting friends instead.

Have fun,

Raymond

Hi all ...

WOW! I never expected to see so many elements at top of Mt. Diablo. The weather there was very warm and beautiful!

Sam & Diane ... You have a great Element! Some of the features I never even thought of. I'll have to get that special one we talked about!

George ... Nice ride!

Sammy & Mary ... WOW! It's so clean!

Jack ... all the way from SF ... thanks for making the climb!

Melissa & Greg ... All blue ride ... NICE!

There were a total of 6 of us up there looking down at the world! The funny part about the whole "group" experience was that when the car showed up by itself no one looked ... when there were so many, everybody came over and wanted to see the car. Honda should be paying us! (-: We all then caravaned down to In-N-Out in Danville-San Ramon where we were besieged again .. the ride down to Danville was awesome ... so many looks and "pointy" fingers. Special!

I am looking forward to the next get together!

Stay well!

Val:)

It should've been 7. . . I'll apologize; I was on 680N when my folks called with a minor emergency. Ugh.

Anyway, I wish I could've been there. . . let's see some photos!! :D

I was caught in the dreaded 'honeydo' patch!

I promise to make the next one.
