I felt like that the first time I sat inside my uncle's FG2 (2006 Civic Si Coupe). Now I'm used it. When I sit inside a different car, I feel like the windshield is super close to my face.

side note: anyone going to Nisei this weekend?

Question Proposed meet spot

UVAS Reservoir
15000 Uvas Rd
Morgan Hill, California 95037


Google Maps

This spot is off a a very nice windy road. The drive goes along Uvas reservoir and there is a couple very nice spots for pictures. The spot with the picnic benches sits above the large parking lot and also looks onto the water.


This is not the spot with the picnic benches but it is a great spot for pictures.


This is the proposed meet spot.

Hey Tim,
Looks like a nice spot. Set up a meet here, and I'll come. If you need help, let me know.

I'm going to check it out tomorrow and see how much it gets parked up. Its in the hills so the road is not traveled a lot. We could easily keep 20+ fits in a row for a while on this road.

There is several other lakes in Morgan Hill that allow boats and are more popular. Uvas also has hiking trails and a more popular destination miles away. I usually only see people fishing at this spot.
