Default South Bay Meet for Rainbow Run April 8th

Ok, no one has taken the reins on organizing a South Bay meet to caravan up to Petaluma run start point, so I'll do it

Remember we are going over the bridge so FasTrak is really helpful. Drinks,snacks,coats possible as it might be a little cool at the rest area at Bodega Bay and a 2-way radio (channel 10-0) is really helpful to let others on the cruise know of potential hazards, issues along the way.

Meet point at the IN-N-OUT Burger at Rengstorff and 101.

WHERE: 1159 N Rengstorff Ave, Mountain View, CA
ROLL OUT: 8:30 sharp

Sound off if you will be joining in from the South Bay!

We will take 101 north to the Golden Gate Bridge

I like to join, but I prefer to pass over Golden Gate.

I haven't decided on the route yet, but I did consider that route 😁🤙 sounds like there's a +1 for the Golden Gate Route!

When you guys take 19th through the city that road can be bad.
Historically the left lane has a lot of bad bumps. I usually take the middle or right lns.

Just a heads up. Everyone drive safe. And remember. GG has toll booths so you NEED fast track.

Thanks for heads up man. We will take middle lane thru 19th ave.

We are driving north on Golden Gate bridge. I think south bond has toll...
And of course we take 680 back, so no toll

Yeah that's right. And also. Be careful on the bridge. Stay left/center lane.
The tourists take the first right hand after the bridge to look out point.
And the once past all that second lane in is good. Fast lane is against the wall and always crap there.

Also getting into Petaluma through the narrows is construction.
I'd stay right. Your right against the wall in the fast lane
And the exit getting off to the meet is all brand new now. Nice sweeper. Lol. And remember gas is just past the meet spot 1 block.

Cool. No left lane on the bridge. And no 1/32 tire thread on sweeper ramp!

BUMP

Looks like chances of showers/rain, but we are going regardless. Please let me know if you will be joining the South Bay group. Engines started and rolling at 8:30 sharp. We will take 101 North and cut across at 380 to 280, or possibly take 85 over to 280 and head North.

Please be fueled up and ready to rock and roll!

Is there a white SS in Mountain View on DR? I'm surprised I've never seen him.

We will have one short pit stop (regroup) at the vista point just after Golden Gate Bridge.
We go around the circle and park all the way in the back just before the ramp back to highway. 9:20 to 9:25 am.
