I did say if they're not in a rush :)
And the view is much much nicer than from 101/280/17/85, but everything 
comes at a cost.  Come to think of it, I haven't driven to Santa Cruz 
down 17 (during daylight) for some years now as i'm never in a hurry to 
get there.

The problem with the bicyclists is when they decide they can use either 
lane and go around a corner doing so...are you a bicyclist trying to 
discourage cars from interrupting your cycle ? ;)

ewwww, 101

I think that will be the fastest and is much less boring than 101.
