Okay guys. I've been lagging in posting this up but I'd like to nail down a good Sat for this Central Cali Meet. I've been discussing the plans with Vegastrashed and kmslo530i and we're hoping to incorporate some winery visits in the Central Cali area as well as a coastal drive. I'm also hoping to make this an overnight event where we can drive to SLO Sat morning; do our events; have dinner; and stay overnight and drive back Sun.

I've put some potential dates for the poll so let me know what you guys think.

Tony

The March ones are dicey for me since I'm leaving the country on the 6th and will probably be scrambling to do a lot of last min things.

23rd works best for me although that would have been my 7 yr anniversary that went kaput late last year. I'm down for a trip with some wine though to get through the day lolz!

Would the drive be early AM on Saturday? Never been to SLO so i have no idea how long it takes to get down there..

I'll let hollywoodtrash, ICEMAN316 and bmw4life know about this since I'll be in Socal this weekend. I know ICEMAN316 aka Bing has been wanting to do a wine tasting Meet and Greet for awhile. As for hollywood, small chance of him going but I'll ask nevertheless.

I'm guessing the Norcal contingent will be heading down early at about 6 or 7am. It's about 2.5 hr driving from SJ.
