Not 100% yet but definitely down for a convoy from Sac area to the bay if I can make it.

We would be leaving Sac on 11/10 in the early AM and coming back later that evening right?

Yep. Leave around 7 to allow for traffic and some wiggle-room as the estimated drive time is 2 hours from Elk Grove.

Thoughts?

Sounds good to me, we can probably gather at the same spot you guys gathered last time? or if there is one closer to the freeway (Whatever works), I live on Calvine

Where we met last time is right off 5.

I live near Elk Grove Florin / Bond.

Down to meet wherever.

N26Ghost · 10-19-2018, 01:36 PM

Yeah, if folks are good to meet at Rescate, we can caffeinate and then hop on the 5 from there.

That sounds like a good plan.

jh_f30 · 10-19-2018, 02:45 PM

I'm happy to see this meet getting traction! Pun sort of intended. =P
Let's just all keep our fingers crossed that the weather holds up!

N26Ghost · 10-19-2018, 03:31 PM

sspade and Roadtrip Ren if I remember correctly, your vehicles are outfitted with special equipment that will be of particular benefit on our drive down. Should probably have you take point to ensure no hiccups on our commute to SJ.

Radar detectors?

N26Ghost · 10-19-2018, 03:49 PM

Nope, photon torpedoes...

Thats a funny way to put it...." special equipment"... good one.

Roadtrip Ren · 10-20-2018, 12:11 PM

BTW... Im good to meet at the same coffee spot as before.

Just a side thought.... for a long day that we are talking about... should we look at some type of communications during? ( walkie talkie?)

rhdc2itr · 10-21-2018, 10:52 PM

if the meetup is going to be in SJ, I will be down to attend.... would love to see what your guys got hiding.

chhappy7 · 10-22-2018, 12:26 AM

I'm going to try to attend. Waiting to get my car back from dealership for a bunch of issues that 'magically came up' right before new car warranty lapsed for some reason, and it has them checking literally everything. Super weird how that worked out, right?

So far, they replaced a couple cracked buttons and valve cover gasket.

Also, is everyone okay with me taking some footage to be used for my channel if I do show up? There aren't many videos of NorCal meet ups so I wanna get some NorCal coverage on there too XD

Glad to hear that they came up right before rather than right after! Definitely would be cool to get some footage shot. I personally have no objections.

I saw this iPhone app called Zello and downloaded it, it allows you to create a channel and talk on it, it's available for every platform. If you have iPhone, we can do a test run and then others can join. This seems like an easy and efficient way, what do you say?
