I'm down for any date

I think your meeting criteria is fair. I plan on bringing the wifey so we will need to make plans to have someone watch the little ones for us. Having said that, I appreciate you taking the time to organize this event (and others in the past). This will be my first one (and not my last) so I hope it's a go

Thanks!

I think it is very fair in what you stated Shane, I am of course down for any meet date, it is the only time I see other G owners who actually appreciate their cars.

Of course I just tell the wife I'm going and she nevers says no...lol

Jeff when the event date gets closer we usually set up meet points for various locations so that everyone arrives at a set time. I guess Shane will do this when a number of people have signed up.

Meet

Hey guys,
Good to see were planning again. I am up for the 17th. Im having knee surgery on the 23rd so I wont be doing squat after that. I WILL make the 17th if it ends up on that date. Look forward to meeting all you and checking out your rides!!! P.S this route is a blast I drive it all the time!! Dont miss it.

Yeah Ken, but the question is...how long are you going to stay? the whole run or just part of it, like usual?

Those 12 are of course excluding the maybe/tentative or if’s, but I would expecting about ¼ of them are end up not showing up, because their plans do change from day to day.

Well, that’s what my take on the min attendances for a meet is, let me know if its fair. You know what they say? Half the battle is showing up, that definitely holds true for the meets, but certainly I wont ask anyone to plan their life around the meeting date or change their plans but thing is that we all have to make certain compromises to be able to attend the meets, I mean ppl like Eloy who show up for meet with couple of hours of sleep and sometimes none, and others like Mike, Paul, Wes and few others from Sac that attend the meets quite regularly, they have to drive couple of hours just to get to the meeting point, and others might have to decide wheather to spend their day off with their family or attend the meet. Thats why I try to take extra steps to ensure everyone enjoy the meet/drive.
Thanks for clearing that up.

I work weekends so as soon I know what day this meet will take place I'll schedule the day off. And I'm also one of the people coming from pretty far out (Fairfield) that's why I made my comment about needing to know if there's minimum car limit before the whole thing is canceled.

Anyway, I hope by Monday the date is set so I can add myself to the list officially.

Hello Rob, Sorry to hear about your knee, do wish you have a speedy recovery!

As far for the date of the meet? right now its TIED (unless ershG35/Pro-Skyline03 willing to drive across country to attend , not sure the location of bilitzsti22 tho). And yes the route is decent, specially the part of 84 after Alice .

Jeff, Like Paul said, when the date is set, there also be some caravan info as well, but that will be upto ppl from various locations to set it up, there is usually one from Sac/Fairfield area, of course we could set one up for the Eastbay location, maybe at Union Landing or off 237/880 if we dont want to pay the freaking toll?
