Hi folks,

The weather seems to get going back and forth. The last I heard, Sunday midday should be fairly dry, so I'm going to carry on with the meet.

When: Sunday, November 18th at 11:00am
Plan to depart for the ride at 11:30am sharp

Where: The beginning rally point is Pleasant Hill Park on the map. It's right next to the large PH shopping center. End point is downtown WC at Vanessa's Bistro (Jimmy and Michael's restaurant) for a late lunch around 1:30pm or before depending on the pace.

Route: The route is approximately 40+ miles and should take us 1.5 hours tops. There are plenty of gas stations in PH and WC so hopefully that won't be an issue.

At a high level, we'll take Alhambra Valley Rd to Bear Creek, Grizzly Peak to Skyline, Pinehurst through Moraga, then St. Marys into WC.

If you have any questions, PM me. Hope to see some of you there!

In the recent threads feeling out a Nov meet, I probably had 2 or 3 other folks say they were interested, but I'm not sure if they're still in.

At the last meet in Sept, we had 11 cars show up. I was able to give better notice because the weather wasn't as shifty.

Cool. I'm not sure where the rain went, not that I'm complaining, but it's sunny in San Mateo and Oakland. It had barely rained in WC.

CoolBDPhenom03

Maybe 5? Possibly more.

CoolBDPhenom03

Eh, read that too quickly. I'll repost it.

Heading out there now. Was hoping I'd have enough time to rinse the car off real quick after all this rain, but I suppose it's just going to get dirty again on the drive. haha

CoolBDPhenom03

True! Might have to do it sometime this week.

Btw, I see sunshine!
