Come and get them P-cakes!
IHOP Santa Clara, CA
9:14 AM
Saturday, April 24th
Just show up...no reservations needed.
Bring a 914 if you have one...come see what roadworthy 914s look like if you don't. Last chance for motivation to get your car on the road before the WCC. The May 9:14 breakfast is cancelled only because the WCC will be the week following the regularly scheduled breakfast date.

I'll be there. There's a gun show in Reno that requires Brian's attendance, so I will be sans SO. But I will most likely be bringing another Shyu with me.

Cross-posted everywhere…
I am away from the computer for a day and look what happens! The RoadGlue list is still alive? 30 posts in one day about a breakfast supersedes the number of posts all year…So now I know its food that brings you guys to life…8^).
The following is the previously posted SF BAY AREA schedule so you can see that we are actually on track, and according to plan, but we can change this schedule if needed:
SCHEDULE – Bay Area 9:14 Breakfasts 2004
Mar 27 East Bay (Pleasanton) – Donuts/Drive
Apr 24 South Bay (San Jose) - Breakfast only
May 29 No event (West Coast Classic is following weekend)
Jun 4-6 - West Coast Classic
Jun 26 East Bay (Pleasanton) - Breakfast only
Jul 31 South Bay (San Jose) – Breakfast only
Aug 28 North Bay (Novato) - Donuts/Drive
Sep 25 East Bay (Pleasanton) - Breakfast only
Oct 30 South Bay (San Jose) - Donuts/Drive
Nov – Holiday Break
Dec – Holiday Break
We should avoid the herd mentality of a hasty decision. Multiple breakfasts will fracture our Bay Area group and then no one will participate. A single, larger breakfast which rotates locations around the SF Bay Area has a much better dynamic and will bring more 914s together. Someone shouts ‘hey what about…’ and all of a sudden it’s a stampede. It would be a far richer 914 experience if we had several regional breakfast hosts, willing to do minimal coordination, who could help plan the breakfasts, but few have volunteered. Its super easy, just select an easy to find venue with good food and parking, tell me and I will post it. You will even get kudos for your effort!
I have always encouraged local areas to host their own 9:14 Breakfast and as a result there have been great breakfasts in Seattle, Tacoma, Oregon, Virginia, Chicago, Florida and other places. The Bay Area is not so large where we should have multiple breakfasts in my opinion, but anyone outside the Bay Area, while always invited to the Bay Area 9:14 Breakfasts, should consider organizing their own local 9:14 Breakfast. We can each only dream of the day when we can be visiting emissaries to other 9:14 Breakfasts in other far away parts of the world. All Good 9:14 Breakfasts should be held on the last Saturday of each month though…
I anticipate that The Bradster may volunteer to be our Fremont 914 Breakfast Chairman as soon as he gets settled in. He was our Novato connection until he moved…but hey people do that, its not the end of the world fellas, you are not abandoned.
Patrick Pickerell is our Pleasanton Breakfast Chairman. He had a last minute, important business call in March…give him a break, the man has to prosper so he can buy 914 parts…As I understand it there was still a 914 vs 911 hill climb-masquerading-as-road tour and a V8 Conversion meet that was held that day.
To make this the best series of 9:14 Breakfasts anywhere, we need 914 Chairperson volunteers for the vicinities around Novato, El Cerrito, San Francisco and San Mateo. We can hold the breakfasts at each of these locations a couple times a year so not everyone has to be always driving to attend. I do drive my white 914 frequently BTW…usually 500-600 miles per week…not including 2 trips to Los Angeles. Its been my daily drivers since 1998 when I bought it…
No one can be at every breakfast each time it is held, so it means that we need to work together in a coordinated manner to benefit the group. I am willing to continue the master coordination and announcements, but your help is needed.
See you Saturday April 24th at 9:14 am at the Santa Clara IHOP?

Yes. Fremont will hold one somewhere along the line. 84 and Ardenwood right off of 880 and 84. BIG parking lot with an IHOP and a OSH. Conveniant for the East bay peeps and only 20 minutes for most south bay people.
