I am looking for someplaces to fly in the East Bay.
(Other than the marina--since the wind there has been
gusting 25+ the last few days.)  Am not quite a novice;
I don't crash much, but am still working on the snap-stall.
Just looking for a nice and consistent breeze since the
marina is just too heavy (at least for me -- and I haven't
too many other people out there the last few days either.)
Any suggestions on alternate sites that are a bit less of a
arm workout?  Thanks in advance!!

Kevin, 

In the East San Francisco Bay Area try the following:

Try Lake Elizibeth (spelling?) park in freemont.  Take Stevenson Blvd (off
880) and go toward the hills, at the last right (Galudet) before the hills
turn right into the park.

Or, Sportsman sport park in Newark.  Take Mowry exit, off 880, go toward the
bay.  The park is on the left after about 1 mile.  The road ends, just after
that so you can't miss it.

Or, we used to fly at the San Leandro Marina Park.  Take Marina exit, off
880, and head toward the bay.  Stay on the road after it curves south and
the park is on the right.

Hope this helps, 

Darrin
