Have fun guys...

this is why we can never get a lot of members meeting up. People from SF never want to drive anywhere BUT in SF. Comeon guy..... Because we are meeting up in Fremont doesn't mean that we are going to be cruising the streets of Fremont. We are trying to find a central meeting place here...... Do you know how far Greg has to drive just to get to Fremont?

Yeah. my drive just to get to Fremont is a little over an hour. Isn't the whole purpose to enjoy your car, so a drive down to Fremont for lunch, meet some new people, check out some rides, and possibly a drive worth it?
Seems like people want to go for a drive but don't want to drive very far to meet up.

well said, greg........

instead of having a " it's ALL about ME ME ME ME ME " attitude, the whole point of having a get-together is to meet new people and check out their rides. I really don't know anyone that is scared to put an extra 20 miles on their cars cuz they have to cross the bay bridge.........

when people think narrow-mindedly, they won't have a good time, edison. He thinks that just because we are going to meet up in Fremont, that means we are limited to the streets of fremont, or better yet, limited to the parking lot of the pizza place. a$$holes like that should just stay home.
