914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Breakfast in the Bay Area

Posted by: JimN73 Feb 15 2012, 11:25 AM

Isn't it time for a Bay Area breakfast?

Max's. 2015 Crow Canyon Place, San Ramon. They have a large back room that we used last time.

Take the Crow Canyon Road exit from 580 in Castro Valley for a pleasant, almost country road, drive.

The 25th at 9:14.

Edited the first post to make it official!

Sorry, I am not available that weekend.

Thanks, Mark.

Is there a way to keep the time sensitive threads on the first page. Right now there's an event in Hershey coming up, drives in the PNW and a Florida event and this - they're all slipping down a page or so a day unless someone bumps or responds.

thanks,

Assuming my car is not disassembled (you never know)

or

I don't have a broken limb (also not in the realm of unpossibility!)

I'm in!

Bummer, would like to catch up with some of the Disco Bay crew, but I won't be able to make this one.

Only about an hour before the 914 breakfast starts! WAKE UP!!!

I think I'll relax a little since I'm only 5 blocks away... biggrin.gif

Posted by: Cairo94507 Feb 25 2012, 02:07 PM

So this was a well attended event - Lot's of fun to meet and talk with fellow 914 addicts and see our cars in the wild - Here are 13 of them together....

It was a good event, I'm glad that everyone could make it. I counted 27 people, including women and children. And 13 cars. l

Weather was perfect, a little cool but clear.

The breakfast was good and the service a little slow. It's interesting and unfortunate that so many places will take orders in a reasonable way but lose track of where the food goes when it comes out of the kitchen.

A couple of guys had real cameras so we should get some good pictures.

It was great seeing everyone, and their cars. Got to meet some new people, and saw a few familiar faces. It was the first event I'd been to with that many 914s there.
Can't wait till Monterey piratenanner.gif

Good times, nice pics!

I promise that by the next event I will wash my car.. smile.gif

Posted by: pt_700 Feb 26 2012, 11:10 AM

nice seeing the familiar faces and meeting some new ones in person. good call on switching up the venue, bring different folks "out of the woodwork". jim, mention to your wife i had to go home and put my camera next to a smaller one before i felt better about myself. she'll know what i mean, ha ha!

good on jim for the name tags and organizing this. place coulda done worse with our gang, we were probably half of their total at the time. missed some peoples toast though... i agree on the help. polite enough but, still much to learn. i guess the good ones move on to fancier places.

great chatting with marty and jeff at the table. rob and his lovely wife, in the parking lot (dang! forgot her name and i see no name tag in the pics!). it was heartening to hear my ugly irish green was at least one person's fave! rob's son apparently has the irish green die-cast.

most of the same pics already posted turned up on my memory card. i'll post another rear end shot. couldn't help but thinking of a roll of life savers candy when looking at all the pretty colors.

valy, you're totally right to bug me about getting to work on my poor car. my wife too, wants to see it receive some love, especially paint. i'm stickin' with my "mechanicals 1st" credo though! lately, been distracted with fixing the klr 650 up for riding in death valley though. at least that has given me something good on fuel (50 mpg) to commute with.

looking at the pics, i can't help but think those in colder parts must really be hating us...
