Tuesday night I tried the Niles Canyon/Crow Canyon loop. But it's too slow... average speed in the 30's and 40's... it'll take a month to get my 1000 miles. Wenesday I drive to the top of Mt. Diablo, 20 minutes to go 8 miles! Not efficient, or fun at all (bumpy as hell, dirt all over the road... no guard rails...)

Plus, the car isn't exactly fun to drive... a 4300 rpm rev limit means it's impossible to stay in the boost, and all those twisty canyon roads are perpetually wet this time of year. No reason to risk sliding off into a ditch ruining my FMIC during my break in!
