LMAO, so I decide to come to try to go to a car meet, answer a simple question about where I'd prefer to have it, get attacked out of nowhere for answering in a way that one guy apparently doesn't like, and then continue to get jabbed once I say that I'd rather not go under the circunstances. yeah, I'm the loser clkal. In the 2 or so years on this site, I guess I've now been officially trolled. thanks.

Sorry to the rest of you in the thread. I had actually been planning on coming, regardless of where it was (well maybe not Hollister). It looks like I'm obviously not welcome and will pass on the meet if this is the vibe.

#1.....when did you suggest anything other than san francisco?
#2.....when you found out the meet was in Fremont all you did was clown on the location.
#3.....stop whining like a little biotch. if you ain't coming, you ain't coming. nobody is banning you from the meet.
#4.....you wanna show up like everybody else, you are welcome.
#5.....one last thing....just to let you know.....there are several people that live quite far away....frisco wouldn't be to convinient for them. Fremont is a more central location for everyone. Yes, people from frisco might have to drive 20-25 minutes, but oh well...i gotta drive that long to get to fremont as well. Our last meet was in S'vale, this one in Fremont, and what the heck....our next one might be in the north bay like the one before s'vale. It's about give and take and not being an individual. I apologize for singling you out, but i really dislike selfish people. Nobody was taking charge of this bay area meet, so i stepped up and decided the date, time and location. Why don't you just leave this subject as it is, and show up and have a good time?

Also, where's that overgrown punk Greg (not you, GG, but Greg P. E55 Greg)!?! You hear me hill billy boy??

By the way, what's the agenda? High speed runs across 92? I know you guys picked a place already, but I was gonna suggest Skyline. Then again, just meeting is cool too.

Maybe I'll buy it a bra just for you ... but you know I love an exposed exhaust! (ok, I admit that was corny, but I couldn't do better)

Do you guys want to drive or just meet?

If you want to drive, I suggest we meet at the corner of Edgewood Road and Canada Road (take the Edgewood road exit off of 280, head west (left if you were on 280N, right if you were on 280S), and park right there on the side.

I don't mind being the lead. We'll take Canada -> 92W to 35 S (skyline), stop up there briefly at a vantage point assuming it's free, and then progress down to Big Basin Way, mosey down into Saratoga, and from there you can either call it quits or take 9 into Los Gatos and have a meal there?

Or we could meet elsewhere and just talk??

No. Well, it'll just be the two of us... not that there's anything wrong with that!

Maybe we'll call Greg P. for fun, wherever he is.
