BAY AREA / NORCAL MEET - COME SIGN UP! - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

HRC · 09-13-2005, 07:48 PM

Date: Saturday, November 5th
Time: 1pm
Location: Berkely Marina

Plan: Meet up and take a short drive to Redwood Road/Skyline Blvd. for some pics and drive some twisty roads. Grab some grub and call it a day.

Meeting Place: The Berkeley Marina is located off of the University Ave Exit in Berkeley. Drive down towards Hs Lordships resturant. Before you arrive you will drive pass the shorefront on your rightside. This is where we should meet up. Drive until you start seeing some e90's parked. Nice scenic back-drop with San Francisco and the Bay Bridge. Nice place for some phots so bring your cameras. Here is a map of Hs Lordships:

Here is a more detailed map of the area. IGNORE THE RED PLUS SIGN ON THIS MAP AND REFER TO THE RED STAR IN THE ABOVE MAP.

Let me know what you guys think and we can adjust the above plans accordingly.

Danny

I would be interested!! We should do it before rain season starts too.

Jason · 09-13-2005, 08:16 PM

Sounds great, hopefully you guys will get the amount of interest the SoCal meet got. As details get solidified, I'll (or HRC can) update the first post of this thread with info/members attending. Looking forward to seeing pics from this.

ward · 09-13-2005, 08:19 PM

I'm in the area,
and i like to eat BBQ

northerncalguy · 09-13-2005, 09:21 PM

I am definitely game, but I don't take delivery until mid-October. If you guys can wait that long, I'll be there. Otherwise I'll have to setup a Spring meet...

CA330i · 09-13-2005, 09:24 PM

I'd be down! Depend on when we had it though... my car is scheduled to arrive in port on the 15th, so I should have her by the end of the month.

timzerofive · 09-13-2005, 10:10 PM

When? As long as I'm not down in Irvine for that weekend, then I'm in. It's too boring up here.

CALIF65GM · 09-13-2005, 10:58 PM

No car yet...

bingstarr · 09-14-2005, 02:40 AM

im there. when and where?

timzerofive · 09-14-2005, 03:53 AM

suggestion... lets drive down skyline blvd and can take some smaller, more curvy routes off that road, it will be fun. I drove down Kings Mountain Road a month ago by myself, and then went again last weekend with a friend checking out more routes. At one point I was trying to chase down this C5 vette going about 80 on those bendy roads, but couldn't keep up. After 3 turns he was gone. Then I saw a brand new red 911, and then a blue F430, never saw one in blue.

BMRu4ia · 09-14-2005, 11:23 AM

Sounds Great. count me in too.

hsiaochinsan · 09-14-2005, 01:17 PM

I am in, too!! Too bad my 19" Dpe rims will not be here until mid Oct.

HRC · 09-14-2005, 01:49 PM

Hey All! Timzerofive's suggestion of Skyline Blvd. is a good drive with some places to stop and take pictures. We could meet up and do that, grab lunch somewhere and chill. This type of meet is alot easier than a BBQ in that we don't need everyone to bring some food, nor do we need a BBQ spot. Any Thoughts?

Any other suggestions as to other local spots would be appreciated!

Things we need to arrange:

Date: Saturday or Sunday Dates in September or October?
Time: 11:00am?
Place: Oakland, Berkeley Marina, Treasure Island?
Food: Eat out or bring food to BBQ?
Equiptment: Camera's(who's got them?) and two-way radios

I think that's pretty much it for now. The only *rule* I would like to see is that nobody does anything to get negative attention from anyone else, like the police. If we go for a drive, I'm not racing around turns, etc...have fun without being reckless!

Danny

BTW, those with screen names, could you post your real first name, thanks!

longtran · 09-14-2005, 02:03 PM

hey guys, i am in southern cali. i dont mind going up there if you guys pick a good date and time, i might cruise up there.

hsiaochinsan · 09-14-2005, 02:20 PM

It am fine with any location you listed. Btw, I can bring lots of Chinese Pearl Milk tea to the meet since I work at a Pearl Tea shop in Mountain View.

Steve

surlung · 09-14-2005, 04:03 PM

I'll try to make it, depends on which date

-Sean

ps I LOVE PEARL TEA

ward · 09-14-2005, 05:08 PM

i think going to a restaurant might be nice to avoid the hassle of raw meat in the trunk, charcoal, and other nasty items being in the car

any weekend other than the last in sep, 1st in oct are fine with me

northerncalguy · 09-14-2005, 05:16 PM

How about the weekend of Oct 21? Thats when I expect to take delivery...I'll understand if y'all go ahead without me, maybe I can roll up in my Honda Accord and get a preview of what's to come.

Santa Cruz & the PCH stretch going up to Half Moon Bay is a beautiful, scenic drive -- worth thinking about.

First name is Sang.
