Interest in Lake Berryessa (NorCal) run

Anyone interested in doing this run? Here is the route;
Waterman Blvd to Alamo Dr - Google Maps

Here's part of the run in my MR-S.
CA Highway 121 - YouTube

*UPDATE* 1FEB2011

4 days to go. Here are the final details. Date is set for 4 February 2012. We'll meet up at a Starbucks, 4490 Central Way, Fairfield, CA 94585. Show up 9:30 a.m. and start the drive at 10:00 a.m. We're taking the route shown in the video taken in my MR-S. Have lunch at Black Bear Diner. Then take the same route back and wave goodbye. Here is a map of the route.

Please post or PM if you'd like to go.

...that route looks great!

Eyefone, I checked out your video. What day of the week did you do that? I didn't see much traffic during that 15 minute run.
Anyway, the route you propose looks very interesting. Are there any notable restaurants along that loop? BTW, Saturdays are good for me. If I am not called in to work on the day of your run, I'd like to join up with you!

IIRC, I took that video on a Saturday. As far as eateries, the route I linked ends up at Vacaville where there are a few decent places to eat.

I'll start a list on who would like to come out. I'll set the date for 4 February 2012, it's a Saturday. I'll update the list on my first post.

Sorry about that. It's for 04 February 2012. Think the 21 came from the drive I'm doing with my coworkers on 21 January.
