Mike,
I'm passing on HIN Pleasanton. Did it last year and like Tony mentioned I'm in San Diego. You should try to go to the Central Cali Meet in San Luis Obispo (SLO) in November. The Norcal caravan was a blast the last time on the way to SLO.

We've only had some preliminary conversations about this and haven't nailed down a date. The thought is that we'll do it in San Luis Obispo again to unite the NorCal and SoCal folks and do a barbecue. One thing I realized from going to some of the meets is that we don't get to spend enough time getting to know the people and to talk to them about their passion...their CARs. We usually chit chat for a bit and then hop on a drive and stuff and we don't get enough social time.
Sure we'll still try to incorporate other activities into the next meet especially since people will be making a long trek but I definitely want to make sure we have time to hang out and get to know everyone.
I'll keep you guys posted.

My Ride: MB 2007 E63 Flint Grey with Performance Package
Hey, I finally made it into the pictures.
So, I am the tall old (46) caucasian. Cracks me up. What's funny is, I can do better than just keep up.
So a joke from the comedy channel.
"how do you want your hair cut?" "I don't know but how about a get laid cut because the last one did not work."
Again, a blast to hang with a bunch of people who act young, even if they had the advantage of being young!

Thanks for the video Joe and thanks DrunkMonkey for the pics of the ride (humhmm, since Tony screwed up his video).
I guess we were kind of moving quickly up that tight road. I felt like I was going slow because I was trying not to scrub a wheel or a bicyclist, HaHa! (oh and VT was glued to my arse which made me feel slow, HaHa!)
No problem Glock-357. Its prolly the best I can do... Didn't take my brother for no reason! and plus... I just went for the drive cuz phattbam invited me. I will own a bmw one day...lol

Yeah, A BBQ would give us more of a chance to chat with one another rather than sitting in a resteraunt. That is a good idea... Also, if members hang around and spend the night in SLO it is a good chance to get to know other's while drinking and taking their money in a few poker games. It was a ton of fun for the few of us that got together a game last time...
Looking forward to the SLO meet...
