Well, beg to differ but V We did have a ride many years ago
to San Francisco/Marin Headlands and it would be great to do it again if
anyone wants to put it together. My $.02  *I did offer to help with such a
drive and also made suggestions.  Someone else was interested in helping. I
don't remember who.  I have gotten no response to date...  And, as an ex
NY'er, with two sons living there now I have to agree with Ron "*...The City
IS NYC!"
