Default East Bay folks wanting to convoy up for the June 26 Meet

For those of you that will going to the meet on the 26th in Folsom, if you want to convoy up on Saturday, please let me know.


I'll be leaving at 8AM sharp from the Concord/Pleasant Hill area. Once I know how many people are going from the East Bay I'll set up a place. Most likely the meet up spot will be Sun Valley Mall since it is a centralized location and near the freeway.

Chris

East Bay leg is gonna be handled by r.maestas. I'll be joining them from Castro Valley and we'll pick everyone up along the way. We're starting in Hayward/Castro Valley off the 580, up the 680 to the 80.

PM Me and i'll keep you up dated with our side of the convoy.

Hey guys. Let's link this discussion to the new post that i will be starting. We already have people designated to set up the convoy up. I am waiting to hear back from Rolo as we speak, cause I am supposed to post this status up tomorrow a.m.


Proposal

lightwave - North Valley - meeting location TBD
r.maestas - Eastbay / Southbay - Meeting up in Hayward area
al7ezza - Peninsula - meeting location TBD

Anyway, let's see if it makes sense to link up these convoys at some location up Hwy. 80 , such as Fairfield, etc.

I say meet up in Suisun right at the 80/680 junction...either at the Costco shopping center, Solano Mall or even the Factory Stores in Vacaville.

Sounds like a plan.

Rolo didn't get back to me tonight so I'll update later.

Look out for a new post tomorrow, discussing the convoy, agenda,food, etc.

for those who drive up together, all i want to say is meet up on time, don't wait for people who are not showing up after certain time, and plan for extra time on driving. a lot of cars going together usually slow things down a bit

I like the Costco Shopping Center...big empty lot, no cops to worry about, and only 5 minutes from my house!
