SF Bay Area Drive - 5/3/14

All,
Me and Funkle are looking at putting together a nice drive Saturday morning on the 3rd. Tentatively we'll do something like meet near Page Mill Rd and 280, then head up Alpine for some tasty twisties, and eventually end up in Pescadero, CA. From there we'll head over to 84 and up to Alices to check out the mini-car show. Nothing set in stone, but i was hoping to gage interest. Plan would be to do it early ish to beat the crowds and only take up 1/2 the day so you can all get back to your honey-do's...

Raise your hand if you'd like to join us!

Yes - plan is for early. I'd prefer meeting like at 8am, but that might scare a few people away. Does 8:30 or 9am work for you?

I hate them when I'm driving, but hate cars when I'm cycling Actually I gave up road biking years ago, I'm dirt only now (the only one that can injure me is me)

I'm in. The earlier the better: less bikes/cars/cops

Nice - 4 committed so far. This is what I am thinking for a proposed route:

Start from Palo Alto (280 and Page Mill ish) and go up the hill and down Alpine Rd, weaving our way to Pescadero Creek Rd with a stop in Pescadero for coffee, etc. Then over to the coast for a bit, and finally a run up 84 to Alices. Let me know what you think!

I'm gonna try to make it but will know better as the day comes up.

By any chance, do you guys live near or visit someone near SCU? I have seen a dark colored M Coupe near where I live. There are also a bunch of GT3's and Cayman's!!!

I would be joining you guys with my M Coupe, but there's a BMW CCA Golden Gate Chapter cars & coffee event that morning near my home in the East Bay.

http://ggcbmwcca.org/event/cars-coffee-east-bay-2/

Would you consider a different day?

No, we have 4 committed. But it is a fantastic drive, so I know we will be doing it again soon. Blow off the coffee and join us :-)

All,
Looking at having our drivers meeting at 8:30 at the park and ride lot at Page Mill Rd and 280 (see picture below). Few items to discuss such as where we'll stop for pictures and where we'll stop for coffee, then we'll leave at 8:45 sharp!!

Who else is in!?!

You should join us for this driving! It is very rare that we have this many Z cars together for a nice drive. Skip the CCA Cars and Coffee; I've been to many events and to be honest, you wont miss much.

Okay, I'll probably end up joining you guys. Sounds like a good time and I'd hate to miss the rare chance to see all of our cars in one place and talk shop.

OK, last post on this - any last folks that want to join us? Will be a beautiful day and a great drive with some cool photo-ops. My guess is that we'll win the May Photo Contest as it looks like we may have as many as 5-7 of us there!

Meeting is at 8:30 on Saturday 5/3 at the Park and Ride on Page Mill Road at 280.

I will PM those that have said they can come with my cell later this week.
