Well, what do you know. It just so happens that this is my daily commute.
It is outrageously fun, but intense (And they wonder how we mellow
Santa Cruz types manage to get ourselves pumped up for the high pressure
environment of Silicon Valley :-) ).

A word of warning though. Don't get too wild on highway 17 unless you
know it well. If I had a dime for every brand new Porsche or BMW wrecked
on that road by drivers that didn't know it well enough, I would quit
my job and hang out at the beach everyday.
