Quickert Rd.

Most people don't know this about my dad, but he grew up on Quickert Rd, which is up on the mountains above Saratoga, CA. At the time, Mr. and Mrs. Marvin and Geneva Quickert were the only ones living on this private road.

Thanks to google images, I've also learned that you too can live on Quickert Rd at the tune of almost $4 million in a 6 bedroom, 5000+ square foot mansion. In addition, the Stanford cycling has used Quickert Rd and the surrounding area for training. They offered this picture and review:

"Brutal, oppressive, brutal, painful, savage, arduous, killer, murderous, blood-and-guts, formidable, backbreaking, grinding, fatiguing, unsparing, harsh, merciless, intense, exhausting, austere and even slavish!"
