Need the info. I am in SB, but still on my first year of a Bimmer owner so never have been to one of these. I have a date Saturday morning with a water heater, but would like to check it out in the afternoon. Hopefully the rain will not put a damper on it.
I will call my salesman this morning (SB - BMW) to find out the details
I would definately be interested in meeting up with any forum members if I can make it.

OK, I have read the info and I apologize for acting like/being a newbie (everyone has to start somewhere).
Does anybody know the overall schedule of events? Since I have prior commitments on the honey-do list, I can probably only attend for a couple of hours (I should blow them off and I will definately be more in tune for next year). It looks like the morning is seeing the cars/vendors and talking to people, then lunch and the road rally. What happens in the afternoon?
Forum members that are attending - how do you usually link up?

After the rally, everybody goes home. Many out of towners who are staying overnight try to organize dinners during the evening. I'll be missing out this year.

If you only have a couple of hours, try to go around 10:30 am when things are hopping and all the sponsors are set up. Say hi to Jon Shafer, who was the GM at Cutter Motors BMW for a few years and got everything started back in 2001.
