Heck for the best driving roads the best place to start out would actually be Carson City, NV or Virgina City NV. Both very very close (30-45min away.) They have great access to some great driving in all directions.
Hi Francis, It seems you've got a good handle on steering us around the area when we get there. It is most beautiful there and Dina and I would definitely make it to this event; I hope it can happen. Don't forget that Reno has one of the top 10 auto museums in the Country; National Auto Museum (The Harrah Collection) :: National Automobile Museum | Reno, Nevada :: They have a banquet room and have catered many auto clubs over the years. We look forward to meeting you and all the forum members that will be able to make the Journey North,South,East or West.
