Hey everyone,

Organizing an SF Bay Area meet for the local MBZ owners - just an informal gathering to check out some rides. Saturday, Dec 11th at 230pm. This is the tentative date and time - if there is rain forecasted, it may change!

It will be held in the Gilead Sciences Parking lot in Foster City - behind bridgepoint shopping area. More specifically, its address is

333 Lakeside Dr
Foster City, CA


Let me know if there are any questions.

If you are definitely coming - please post here so we can look out for you!
Hope to see you there.

Damn, I was really pulling for this weekend. Next weekend I'll be in SoCal for my sis' college graduation, otherwise I'd be there.

Kev - if it rains, we'll have to reschedule! Hope it doesn't after your posts - I'm super curious as to how your exhaust sounds and looks!

Blake P - sorry bout that man - I just figured to organize it at some point so we could get it underway - hopefully I'll be able to organize more regularly scheduled meets so we can all get together more often!

hold up, 333 is our main building (i.e. lobby), so I wouldnt suggest parking infront there since people do work on weekends. the parking lot by 368 or the next building over on the same side have a lot of open space.

Shoot, I was really looking forward to this but I forgot I have a Lasik consultation on Sat at 2:30 too. I'll see if I can reschedule the Lasik consultation to an earlier time on Sat.

So the weather looks like it will cooperate for the meet - although it sounds like my C55 will be a little dirty due to no time to wash.

Here's a running list of people showing up:
1. neoprufrok
2. KompressorKev (weather pending )
3. Frisco
4. Ronnie0738
5. xxbenzc230kxx
6. xqwizit
7. Aznxkcboy
8. tritonx
9. bigmikeyee

I'll be there at 230pm.. hope to see y'all there!

Unfortunately, the snow is looking too good and I'm probably going snowboarding for the day and won't be able to attend. Sorry for the last minute cancellation - if my plans fall through I'll be there.
