Pismo Beach, 2012

Kevin - Can't wait to see your car. Geturdone.

Doug - Fly your airplane up to Oceano or San Luis. I will pick you up.

I'm registered...

Woooooo Hoooooo!!

im thinking of attending with my Tiger. i would need a roomie that isnt gay, that means no Marines . I do snore, sleepwalk and have flatulance but nothing worse than your wife/girlfriend. My girlfriend is gorgeous but has no desire to drive in a car with no stereo, AC, reclining seats, sunroof, ventilation, makeup mirror, cupholder, cruise control,heated seats, GPS, shock absorbers, decent brakes and doesnt overheat or need gas every 10 miles.

I'm trying to make it. I'm getting married two weeks later and that is making it hard to plan another trip. Oh well, guess I have to cancel the wedding!

Nick has his priorities straight :~)

Sounds like it would be a GREAT place for a bachelor party, Nick. I'm sure she'd understand.

..and we'll do it up right too~

...and maybe Angela will be there!!!!!!

I'll bring a wad of singles...

will there be a sniffers row....

Well heck, if Vince is bringing singles... I'LL BE THERE!!!

Steve and I will go with 90% probability. I've got a bike race the following weekend in Monterey, which is the only likely hitch in the plans.

Bob? Why not have your gal just drive a regular car? You still get sunsets at the beach, great dinner, she gets to meet your buddies, etc.

Oh wait...she might meet us and then leave - LOL!

angela

Alan said, "..and we'll do it up right too~"

Does this mean you are coming west?

She might leave, I think that is a forgone conclusion.... :)

Hey if she drives a regular car whe'll have a way to go home.... :)

Awesome! Jen- we expect clear skies. None of this rain BS like last year!

Jen,

I would like to arrange for a wine tour and drive for those that might like that after lunch.

Dale

I like that idea, Dale. Maybe we can get Warren and/or some of the folks who know the area to show us the ropes????????????

Bob

If we do it right, we should be able to get in 2 tastings and a barrel/cave tasting at one of the locations. We would need to get 8-10 people to commit.

Let's put Warren in a really SLOW car this year. I'm thinking a stock 1960 VW bug with one spark plug wire pulled.

Warren drives "briskly".

Video of SOC Pismo 2011. A little rain hampered the cruises but did not dampen SOCer's spirit. In spite of inclement weather, had a great time. Drive home was another story...

SOC Pismo 2012 can only get better and will be a blast. Looking forward to hanging with our knucklehead SOC friends...

Only spun out once trying too keep up. My bad

Wow! I guess SOPA has finally hit home. When I click on the video I get "This video contains content owned by WMG, UMG, or EMI, one or more of whom must have blocked it in your country on copyright grounds."

Yeah, me too! Because of the music maybe?

I really want to make this event. I am going ti try working it in. Need to find a date......

BADSPD

Angela

I have downgraded to a 914-4. Shouldn't be a problem with your beautiful 911. Hope you can make it again.

And besides, I am getting the feeling that people want something a little more casual. Wine tasting or a run where you try to identify landmarks on the way, with a prize for the most correct answers? Talk to me folks, it's your party.

I still prefer a spirited run but I could probably get it out of my system on the drive down.
HWY 25 is calling...

Terry - There will still be a spirited run for those who wish it. I was just going on the number of people that started last year with the number of people who finished. Well, of course, it was raining.

Whatever I drive, I'll be taking the Hwy 1 to Naciemento road of joy!

Warren, I think Steve wants to drive HIS car. I'll take my old coupe, Butters.

Still going to pull one of your spark plug wires.

angela

hey Angela.....pull this..

Ahhh, Angela...the Naciemento / Ferguson Road. I remember it well when heading down the PCH last May and seeing a sign North of Big Sur indicating a landslide had made our scheduled route to Morro Bay impossible by the intended route. Up that little road we went, mostly in second gear till Fran made me stop to let her take some Gravol. Somehow we came out at Fort Hunter Leggat and the troops were going bananas that day celebrating the news of Bin Laden's death.

David - sounds like it was a pretty good day all around!

WRT cruises after lunch (weather permitting) - we could have two cruise options available. Cruise #1 = scenic route with stops at wineries, and Cruise #2= scenic route with no winery stops.

Great film, I guess it was taken at night!

Wow, it's been a while since I checked-in here. In between the very entertaining banter, here's what I noticed:

Dale wants to put together a Wine Tour.
Jim's thinking 2 drives for Saturday - one with wine, one without.
Also, I got an email from Warren today and he's got a great idea for cruising on Saturday.

So, Gentlemen (hee hee, it makes me laugh to call you gentlemen), talk to each other. Whatever you plan for Saturday will be perfect. And it can be good to have more than one option. A couple things to keep in mind, the lunches are boxed so they are portable, and the banquet starts at 6pm.

Jim, I tried to watch the video of last year but I got a stupid message that it's been blocked due to copyright.

One last thing, Vince, stop asking people to pull your catheter! That's just gross!

Jen

Jen, I am currently peeing freely, but I do happen to have a few "gently used" catheters for sale, at a reasonable price for those who would prefer to not pull over between gas fill-ups..

I would like to plan a "mild" drive to two wineries. Start after lunch back by 4-4:30.

Cuz'n Vinny...now using the moniker, I P Freely.

OK, Lili and I are IN... reservations made, GERD thanks for the VISA number... I am sure Vince will never notice the double booking...

Speedster "D" Book'm Dave-o

Speedster D...I will bring the cigars & Scotch...

Hand-rolled, single malt only! and then we'll worry about the booze!

Just bringing this back up.
Got my room today, my brother will be joining me this time.
Now there'll be two Nuckelheads to deal with!
