If you have any questions, please come to one of our meetups and we'll be happy to talk.

Till then, remember Helen Keller's entrepreneurial advice: "Life is either a daring adventure, or it is nothing at all."

106 Miles is a Silicon Valley group for engineers who work at startups and engineers who want to work at startups. Please join us if you're an engineer (or friend!) and...

* You have worked at a startup,

We meet at least once a month (usually the first Wednesday of each month, 6-9pm) to...

* Exchange ideas and information. Informally. Usually in a bar.
* Meet engineers at new Silicon Valley startups.
* Meet engineers who want to work at startups.

Our frequent watering hole is Dan Brown's Sports Lounge at 4141 El Camino Real in Palo Alto, CA...

Elwood: "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."
Jake: "Hit it."
