Hey guys

For people in the LA, Glendale and Bubank area i was thinking of doing a caravan goint to the meet this saturday. Would any of you guys want to caravan with me? I know there's a caravan going on at the Pasadena location so i'll probably join them depending on what time they take off because i want to get a good spot myself. So if anybody is interested let me know.

I posted this in the other thread we were discussing this as well...

A few of the guys including the Europimp himself, are going to show up early, around 10-10:30am. Gives time to rope off some spaces and grab brunch at Hooters. So, who wants to meet up in G-Town (Glendale) somewhere and caravan down there? Does anyone have directions? How long do you guys think it will take to get there, about 45 mins. or so? I think we should meet and leave by 9:30. Let me know...

Thanks bugzy...I posted this as well in another thread, here it goes...

I would like to get down there early to meet Mark, Josh, Steve and a couple of the other guys for lunch at Hooters. Also, I donated so if that makes a difference (I don't know) I will print out my confirmation. I would like to leave from Glendale at 9:30 if anyone is down to meet with me. The drive is about 45 mins. to Anaheim all the way down the 5 south at Katella.

So, anyone wanna meet in Glendale, let's say on Brand near the 134 or something? Maybe even at Western since that is the last exit on the 5 before the 134 so we can just hop on the freeway there, I don't know. If so, please let me know and I will drive over there in a couple of hours and find us a spot. I think there is a Mobil station right by there but I'll let you know.

Let me know so I can get a head count...
