The Wife and I are planning on leaving around noon or earlier on Thursday, but I'm taking the back way from my house and going up hwy 88, nicer drive than 50, maybe longer , but nicer. Anyone who wants to join up can meet at my house or along the way.

I'm heading up straight from work Thursday, but won't get off until 4 (maybe a bit earlier). My office looks out of 50 right at 65th so wave if you go by! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) There just solid cones. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) I've never had a problem on 88, and I like the drive better than 50. |

914's are kewl Group: Members Posts: 1,776 Joined: 6-June 03 From: San Ramon, CA Member No.: 791 Region Association: Northern California |
I would love to go, but my motor just runs too hot for me to trust it. Still getting up over 220 degrees driving around San Ramon with the rain tray off.
I'm also a CSOB when it comes to hotels. Can one sleep comfortably in a 914? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I'm planning on going up Thursday sometime. I really liked the route we took to the last Tahoe WCC, we didn't hit a freeway once. Maybe I'll see if I can duplicate it again. Jeff, Shoot me a PM with your address. We might just meet up and travel together. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Marty I don't mind posting it, it's my business address also so it's already all over the net. That way if anyone else wants to meet up, I'm shooting for between 11:00 -1:00 leave time. The wife's going.....probably 1:00 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) 11599 Arno Rd Galt Ca 95632, cell 916-834-6574 Jeff |

I thought about meeting up with you guys in the bay area but I'd really like to take some back roads if possible. I'm thinking of going up the 5 till Stockton then 88 to Tahoe. Sunday coming home on the 4 through Bear Valley, Arnold, Murphys and Angels Camp. I'll probably leave Thursday morning really early. Maybe as early as 10:00 am.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If you want to come by and travel with us, I'm only 20minutes north of stockton, and we're taking 88. Jim, you can drive 88, just not in Robs car....you'll be fine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Rob....remembered.....just got your joke earlier, we need a smiley with everything going over their head...missed that one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |
