HAHA...Hey Keith. My tag line is in honor of you. No offense intended.

OK VT and I've been talking and we thought it's best to ask the SoCal guys what they would like to do Sat night? The meet will start around 10ish on Sat at Santana Row with the exotics and originally I figured we'll drive north to SF and then do a night on the town there. I was thinking of taking you guys to a night club called Ruby Skye and maybe even pitch in for a VIP table. That was idea but I realized it may not appeal to everyone.

Another option is still come back to Santana Row because they have lots of great restaurants and bars and if you guys stay at the Valencia Hotel, it would be very convenient.

Where we end up is what will determine our drive. Right now I'm leaning towards a drive to Livermore and visiting some wineries there. Maybe play some bacci ball.

So, who from SoCal/CenCal is still committed to this meet and what is your preference? Worse case is we split up at night. Here is the list again:

1) ECF
2) Torquey5
3) Freed0m
4) asickmf
5) VT
6) Swajames
7) E1142860
8) CoolTones
9) Dee
10) soc_fans
11) kmslo530i
12) cmansbimmer (coming from NY to hitch a ride with us)
13) ro11dice
14) Blackonblackonblack (BOO
15) EBMCS03??
16) Walked_U??
17) Wheelzplus
18) sideeffects
19) my530i
20) Alex911s?
21) Roleez
22) Merzbow
23) jshoope60?

VT, Freed0m, my530i and I are also having a casual lunch with some E39 and E60 M5 owners this coming Wed and I'm going to invite them to our meet as well.

Shouldn't cmansbimmer be removed from the list? Good thing too. Won't have dead weight to slow me down when I start engaging in some spirited driving.

I would have liked to come out for the meet, but I got a couple of little league games to watch in the morning. Maybe I'll meet up with you all in the afternoon or maybe at Ruby Skye.

Here is the drive that I proposed as below:
4th Bay Area, CA Meet & Greet - Mar 31st-map1.jpg
It's not going to by I-680, I-880 or Warm Spring drive. It's the one with the indicated red arrow

Someone in our group must take some dozes of motion sickness pill before the drive

Yeah,
That person doesn't deserve to have a BMW if he can't tackle the twisties without motion sickness pills.

Hey WINGer, what time would you be done? We'll probably be at Santana Row until after 1 cause we'll have lunch there. And then we'll head out for the drive.

BTW, let's see some pics of that car..

Hey Fred, does that road drop us into Livermore? How long's the drive?
