I'm setting up to meet others in the Salinas area the morning of May 15 to head down to San Luis Obispo to meet up with the rest of the group.
The plan is to leave Salinas at 9:30AM, take 101 to SLO, have lunch and wait for the north bound group to show up.
Let me know if you are interested in joining us.

It's easy. First, send a PM to VegasCrossfire with your cell phone, email address and whether you have walkie talkies to bring along so she can email us all back with a private list of phone numbers to coordinate meeting up if needed.
Then, post a reply and let us all know where you prefer to meet up with the group and whether you're going all the way to Monterey with us so we can add you to the drivers lists below.
Our thanks to AZ Outlaws for spending time with MapQuest to create the list below, but please note that times and meeting places are subject to change! If you know the area and think the driving times are off, or if you want to suggest a better meeting place or itinerary, we're happy to make changes!

:arrow: 3. 10:05 Leave Santa Barbara meeting place. Meeting place is Doubletree Hotel Parking Lot. To get there, take 101 North to Cabrillo Blvd., left exit off the freeway, left onto Cabrillo Blvd., right into the hotel parking lot. Address 633 E. Cabrillo Blvd. From there we will all drive along the ocean front in Santa Barbara (where on Saturdays there is an art festival). Then, we will make a right onto State Street, (the main street in Santa Barbara where EVERYONE is out shopping on a Saturday morning) and left onto Carillo St. which leads straight back to the 101.

From here, it's easy to cut back to the 101 for a "straight shot" drive (vs winding highway 1) south back to Los Angeles...about 7 hours drive.

Could everyone turn around for a sec? I have a problem checking my fluids when someone's watching.
[Now, in the interest of remaining on topic...]
Can't wait. I know I'll be bringing up the rear in this little parade, but I'm looking forward to meeting all the Crossfires.
Hmmm... I have to remember to Google for a good car wash in Monterey so I can make sure mine's the shiniest.

It's easy. First, send a PM to VegasCrossfire with your cell phone, email address and whether you have walkie talkies to bring along so she can email us all back with a private list of phone numbers to coordinate meeting up if needed.
Then, post a reply and let us all know where you prefer to meet up with the group and whether you're going all the way to Monterey with us so we can add you to the drivers lists below.
Our thanks to AZ Outlaws for spending time with MapQuest to create the list below, but please note that times and meeting places are subject to change! If you know the area and think the driving times are off, or if you want to suggest a better meeting place or itinerary, we're happy to make changes!

:arrow: 1. 8:00am Leave Santa Monica meeting place. Meeting place is the parking lot of the Comfort Inn at 2815 Santa Monica Blvd., Santa Monica.

:arrow: 2. 9:15am Arrive and leave Oxnard meeting place. Meeting place is parking lot of Best Western Oxnard Inn, 1156 S Oxnard Boulevard. It's on Highway 1 (Highway 1 is called Oxnard Blvd there) just north of Pt Mugu and Port Hueneme, and just south of the 101 and 34 highways.

:arrow: 3. 10:05 Leave Santa Barbara meeting place. Meeting place is Doubletree Hotel Parking Lot. To get there, take 101 North to Cabrillo Blvd., left exit off the freeway, left onto Cabrillo Blvd., right into the hotel parking lot. Address 633 E. Cabrillo Blvd. From there we will all drive along the ocean front in Santa Barbara (where on Saturdays there is an art festival). Then, we will make a right onto State Street, (the main street in Santa Barbara where EVERYONE is out shopping on a Saturday morning) and left onto Carillo St. which leads straight back to the 101.

:arrow: 4. 12:20pm Arrive and leave Pismo Beach meeting place. Meeting place is F. McLintocks Saloon & Dining House, 750 Mattie Road. Take Shell Beach exit off the 101 and go one street inland to Mattie Road. Look for the BIG goldminers statue in the parking lot. From there, we'll drive through downtown San Luis Obispo to stop for some quick munchies (possibly Jamba Juice at 17 Chorro Street) and then it's on to Highway 1 for the most beautiful part of the drive along the ocean.

:arrow: 5. 5:00pm Arrive and leave the park entrance to go on the 17 Mile Drive. Park entrance is north on Highway 1 through Carmel, past Rio Rd, past Ocean Ave, to the top of the hill. Exit onto Highway 68 towards Pacific Grove, left. After 68 goes over Highway 1, turn left to the Pebble Beach entrance gate. CGates has let us know they charge $8 a car.

From here, it's easy to cut back to the 101 for a "straight shot" drive (vs winding highway 1) south back to Los Angeles...about 7 hours drive.

I'm so excited I don't know what to do with myself!
I'm about to drive to the airport to head out to the left coast... see everyone out there!
If only I could bring my poor xfire out there to play too!

Hi all,
since DC doesn't want to do their own promotions ;-) how about giving one of the local TV stations a call along our route and see if they have a few seconds of airtime available. Say like in Santa Barbara...
I think that could be cool to get the XFs on TV en masse like that.
Just a thought.
