Bay Area Miata Association

River Dance Drive

As we gathered like the troops on D-Day, in England, a group of Miatas gathered in Oakley across from the Delta. Some of us were like walking wounded and needed to be chauffeured, some of us had lost our voice, and we weren't sure if that was a welcomed respite from all his yakking. We put on our battle paint, really it was sunscreen and lip balm and we prepared to take-off and explore the Delta region. After paying our $5, whether it was FasTrak or regular toll (dang toll increase as of July 1) we dropped off the Antioch Bridge and were driving at eye level of the Sacramento River.

This years version of the old Hayward Fault run had a few twists. First our late starting time and location, I met Peter Law at In-N-Out for our "It's Not Our Fault, but We Like It" as he was enjoying his book, a Double-Double, 2 fries along with some Animal Style fries, a Milk Shake and an OTS (other than shake) beverage. As we were gathering folks that were shopping near by stopped by to say hello and ask about the club. One couple had just purchased a Copper Red Miata and were interested in joining up. It was great to see folks meeting and catching up before our Drivers' Meeting.

The weather was indeed spring like, not a cloud in the sky when a group of OTR’s (other than red) Miatas along with 7 red Miatas gathered in Los Gatos on Sunday. The group drove through Los Gatos and started their drive over Bear Creek Road. Bear Creek Road is known for its twist’s but bicyclist also love this road making it hard for autos. Well the “No Bicycle God” was in force, as we NEVER encountered one bicyclist the entire way!!

WOW! What a great time at PR Motorsports’ Open House. The food was awesome and it was just another great opportunity for BAMA members’ to mingle and share stories. Among the many topics; we talked about next year’s MRLS. This is really going to be exciting and of course, BAMA (Peter Law) has stepped up to do the BBQ and BAMA will assist any way possible so that next year’s event turns out spectacular. The other exciting news, wait for it….. Rick is retiring after 30 year of service to the Miata community. Unbelievable!
