Cecil Kimber Tour Over
Mt. Hamilton
Saturday\, April 10
Ready for a challenging drive up Mt. Hamilton to the Lick Observatory and back? Then come along as we once again meet up with the Abingdon Rough Riders for our annual trip over the tallest mountain in the area.
The drive is challenging. There are a little over twenty miles of steep hills traversed by some of the most winding and narrow roads in the Bay Area. The views from the road and the observatory are breathtaking.
This is not a trip for the faint hearted\, or those prone to car sickness. Your car should be in good mechanical condition\, as there are no services for over 70 miles. Please start with a full tank of petrol.
We’ll be taking a different route this year\, as Ken Gittings will lead us from San Jose to Fremont via Mt. Hamilton. We’ll be stopping at The Junction and the Mt. Hamilton Observatory. The tour will conclude at Bronco Billy’s Pizza in Niles.
When and Where\: We’ll meet at 10 am at the former Circuit City parking lot at 2225 Quimby Road at Capitol Expressway in San Jose.
Contact\: Ken Gittings at aracingfan1@aim.com.
