The only other "caravan" thread I want to see is a flight plan from NY to SLO for some numskull.
There are no flights to SLO direct from NY. Here's what's going on...

I have a client in LA that I'm trying to get a meeting with on that Friday. If I do, I am coming out and will be spending the weekend with you guys. That said, I will most likely caravan up with the LA guys. However, my problem is the return flight on Sunday. Getting back to NY at a reasonable hour will require me to take a butt ass early flight and since the closest airports with direct flights are San Jose or LA, I doubt anyone will want to get up and drive me to the airport at 5am in the morning on Sunday...

How about Peet's in East Bay right of 580...

Peet's Coffee & Tea
4620 Tassajara Road,Suite C
Dublin, CA 94568
So who's all meeting up at Peet's? I'm in San Ramon so Peet's would be great, but anywhere else is fine.

Route hasn't been discussed and I suppose for ease of navigation you will take the 101 down as the quickest route to get here. But on your return north if you have just a little extra time, you may want to consider taking HWY 25. You catch it out of King City and it dumps you in Hollister... It's worth it.

I think so far for East Bay, we have:

1) Torquey5 (Dublin)
2) ro11dice (Pleasanton)
3) freed0m (Dublin)
4) lokoloko (San Ramon)
5) ...

We can take 580 to HWY 5?

I believe E1142860 (Bill) is also in the East Bay but I'm not sure. Also, Jed Peter is in Stockton so he'll be coming your way but he's tentative.

And you guys will be caravaning to San Jose to meet up with us in South San Jose. You wouldn't go to HWY 5.

Yeah, what ECF said. Looks like you'll be doing your daily 580 W to 680 S towards SJ.
