Jason, do you think he could fit more than one lady in his TT? That's whenthe A4/S4's come to play!

Sorry I haven't been on here that much because of the new year and such. I've been pretty busy lately.
Anyway, I hope all of you had a great new year.
Going back to topic, meeting at 8 AM sounds really good to me. I love starting the day early; better if I had a cup of hot white mocha!
So recapping everything:
-Locals meet; TBD place.
-LA/IE/SB/SFV/SGV local groups drive to Jack's and meet at 8 AM for breakfast.
-After breakfast head on to 101 meet with the SB locals.
-Head to Solvang.
-BBQ at park for lunch (again, thanks to Oetty for checking out the place for us!)
-Head to Downtown Solvang for some sights/photoshoot.
-Head back home; possible dinner together.

RE: Southern California January 2008 Santa Barbara Cruise
Don't forget the bacon! Yum! 
Thanks for checking out the place Mr. & Mrs. Wilcox.
January 5, 2008 Update:Breakfast place has been chosen at 8 AM. Look below for address.
What: Let's start off 2008 with a group cruise to Solvang, California. This will be a GTG that will probaby take the whole day. In which case, we will be eating breakfast, lunch, and maybe dinner together with the group. Since Santa Barbara County has many beautiful scenaries, we should arrange to have a group photoshoot with the amazing backdrops that Southern California has to offer.
Where: The destination place is Solvang, located in Santa Barbara County. We will be heading there along the 101 freeway. There will be beautiful scenaries along the way.
Below is the Googlemap of Solvang, California:
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=solvan...a=N&tab=il
When: The date is on Sunday, January 13, 2008. Sunday is now chosen so more members can make it out.The date has now been decided.I would like to apologize in advance when the date I will be deciding on does not fit your schedule.
[blockquote]
The agenda I have made so far:[/blockquote]
[ul][*]We would first meet up in the morning with the group. The breakfast place has been decided. The place is called Jack's located in Westlake Village off the 405 freeway. We're meeting at 8 AM. Check google map for more detail on the place.
http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=...a=N&tab=wl
Address of the place: 966 S Westlake Blvd, Ste 2 - Westlake Village, CA 91361[*]After breakfast, we then continue on the 101 freeway heading toward Santa Barbara. We would make a pit stop at this point to fill up gas and meet up with the local group.[*]Stop at Solvang area. Since it is our destination point, we could have a drive around the area. There are many little cafe's, restaurants, wineries, bakeries, and many other sights to see.[*]Wewill then head out to a park(ThankstoOettinger for checking out the park) to have a group BBQ and some activities after that.This will be a potluck BBQ so anything you can bring will be very appreciated. There is also a sign up list for this already with what others are bringing.[*]Sight seeings around the area and group photoshoot.[*]The group activities would probably end the trip at Santa Barbara County. We could split up right away or we could also drive back home and get some dinner with the group along the way. I am sure there are couple of diners on the side of the freeway.
It is not final but that's how I personally plan the big picture of how the trip would look like.
You're welcomed to put inputs for this trip.
This trip will be open to all the members and everyone else who would like to join.
I will be looking more into places to dine or any other interesting places around the area.
Alright, so who would like to join in the fun?
Note:
If any of you guys have a 2 way radio, please bring them so we can communicate with each other along the way and make the trip more fun.
i3uddha, PandaXpress, and I will be picking up ours soon.
These 2 way radios are actually pretty affordable.
I have checked both WalMart and Target for these. WalMart carries Uniden ones for $18; it ranges up to 10 miles.
Target carries the Motorola ones for also $18 and has 4 miles range.
Of course there are a lot more other choices for higher prices but those 2 are the most affordable ones I could find.
Keep in mind that we can keep using these radios as we go on other group trips later on in the year. [/ul]

RE: Southern California January 2008 Santa Barbara Cruise
So I know I am post whoring here but has anyone considered how cold it is going to be bbqing outside? I know we live in So Cal & all but it is JANUARY & we are going north a bit. The35 degree weather lately hasn't been my favorite.Maybe the rest of you won't really care because most of you, if not all are male & well as a female I am always cold.
