Any idea how many miles? Also, it might be good to plan out a couple rest stops / gas up spots, maybe in the larger towns... (Middletown, Nice, etc...)

The drive is about 175 miles and 4.5 hours drive time. This includes the return to SR via 101. The time frame doesn't include any stops so figure another 2 hrs.
If you start out with a full tank of gas you won't need to refill during the trip.
Before heading down 101 from Hopland we should stop and see if we want to end there or in Healdsburg for one last refreshment stop.

Not to be rude but I don't think any of the 76's here in town sell the higher octanes... maybe the list shows Infineon Raceway because they do sell it there at the track (and that's a 76 station).

just got back from the test run, shoulnd be a blast
only took about 2.5 hours to get from Santa Rosa to The Casino, andI got there with only half tank of gas so you guys should be fine if you fill up in SR since I know you guys get better mileage than me
The Casino is WAY nicer than I thought, since I had only been to that Twin Pine one that was in a big circus tent
good looking buffet too!
Okay guys see you at 9am on Sun!

. I tried to come up with a variety of driving requirements and wanted to break up the twisties with some "relaxed" time in between. Even if it was the 17th that would be a Saturday not Sunday
We would have missed you
.FYI, the 24th is a Saturday
