6. Jordan89
7. 5angell Tony
8. Yellow1980 Tony
9. 1nasty73 Mike
10. rkingce Robert

Took these names from the main thread. Above names I recognize as being from the north, guys from the south are listed in the SoCal thread, other names I don't recognize (non forum members?) someone clue me in


9:00 meet at Country Waffles

Me
Thomas & Rhee
Tony & Maria
Robert +1
Mike & Tammy
Tony


Meeting areas/times:

Sacramento: Meet @ 7:10AM at the Park & Ride at W Capitol Ave and Enterprise Blvd just north of I-80

Fairfield (:44 mins/ 41 miles) 8:00 hook-up at the Cheveron/Starbucks at 4490 Central Way

Pleasanton/Dublin: (:43 mins/47 miles) Breakfast Show @ Country Waffles on San Ramon Valley Blvd. in Dublin. Those that want to eat something before hitting the road, meet here at 9:00 AM. Need a head-count so I can arrive early and have enough tables reserved! At 10:00, drive by the Shell station on the southwest corner of Dublin Blvd and San Ramon Valley Blvd to pick up those that don't want to eat, and head to.....

San Jose (:41 mins/36 miles): Parking lot south of the Target store on the corner of Silver Creek and Capitol. Leave at 10:45

Prunedale (:55 mins/51 miles): Prunedale Cheveron, at 8695 Prunedale North Rd. just off the 156 interchange. Leaving at 12:00 noon SHARP, so get there a few minutes early to top off the tank and pick up any needed items at the mini-mart. This will be our main meeting point, so if nothing else, just be there by noon, also if anyone would rather do a roll-on at any point during the cruise, PM me your cell# so someone can call to say we are approaching the roll-on point

King City Alternate fuel stop at the Cheveron at 1 Broadway Cir in King City...At least one of our group is running a big block and may need to fuel up. If this is deemed unnecessary, we roll right on by to.....

Bradley (1:24 mins/86 miles): We'll take a break at the Bradley rest stop. They have water, restrooms, and a phone in case we're out of cell range and someone needs to make a call. Get out, stretch, have a snack, take a few pics, figure 20-30 minutes here

San Luis Obispo (:49 mins/49 miles) We're there! Aim to meet the SoCal cruisers at the Embassy Suites Hotel 333 Madonna Rd. at 3:00. Park, BS session, dinner later, more on that at the main thread

Next Day: Cruise to Morro Bay (:16 mins/12 miles) for pics. At that point the Southern crowd heads south, and we head north along the Pacific Coast Highway. Stop for lunch at Nepenthe's http://www.nepenthebigsur.com/ in Big Sur (2:05/94 miles), then cruise home

All times/distances compliments of Mapquest


What to bring: Two-way radios, snacks, tools, folding chairs, overnight bag if staying the night

More details/updates to come.....

When you figure it out let me know I was trying to cut/paste the flyer and couldn't seem to get it to work so I had to dig out my home computer in the garage. Kid thought it was funny I was sitting in my office chair, pecking away at the keyboard in the garage
