I think it's about time to finally have a meet in SF. I'm thinking we all meet up in the parking lot by the beach next to the cliffhouse. Sometime in the late afternoon/dusk(-ish) that gives us plenty of sunlight for some a game of football, frisbe, volleyball, umm... and whatever other beach games you can think of. Then as it gets darker, we start a bonfire, pool together some money and get some hot dogs, marshmellows(sp?), hamburger, steak, drinks, etc.. and have a BBQ over on the bonfire lit beach. I'm just throwing this idea out there, I'm shooting for around sometime in early dec. after thanksgiving but before xmas. Maybe a Saturday afternoon/night, say the 13th? (weather permiting)

I am in Sausalito, been looking for a meet in the area for some time now. Throw in some driving into your event and you can consider me there.

I would totally be down to do a beach day, car meet, bbq, possible drive. maybe we could do a highway 1 cruise...it's just such a beautiful drive....

As long as it isn't the weekend on the 6th of dec. you can count me in....

hah yeah me and Luke were discussing the bonfire meet idea the other day. Doing it in the evening is a must, since starting a fire on the beach in broad daylight is probably not a good idea... :P

Also the fact that it would be at night would give us pretty much all the parking spots right next to the water. :)

Sometime in December, obviously during the weekend, early/late evening.... there's a Safeway like right across the street so getting hotdogs/marshmellows and whatnot is no problem.

So yea, if you're down, post up in the thread and let us know! ;)

In the winter it gets pretty dark around 5pm, If you want to get a game of football together we should probobly do it a little sooner, tonight it was pretty bad dark around 6pm.

I'll just throw this date out: (Sat. 12/13/03, SF Cliffhouse/beach parking lot, 3pm)should be plenty of light out for pics or football (if you want), plus that also gives us an opertunity to drive to any other SF local (i.e twin peaks, that one place by the marina(not really fort bragg, but ya know), downtown (well.. might be lots of traffic, same goes for lombard), persideo, anywho you get my drift, lots of senic(sp?) places. Gets dark around 5 or 6ish, then we start the bonfire and start the BBQ. But by all means.. If it's too early let's have it at 4, 5 or 6pm whatevers clever

As for the drive, there really isn't many places in SF for "a drive". But I'm sure as the evening continues something'll happen, but I'm not promising anything it's up to you guys. All I'm sayin' is, SF ain't like the SJ roads, just lettin' ya know ;)

I dont think any meet with a "drive" can really be a "drive". Its usually cruise. Cruises are fun anyways.;) That cruise down to the golden gate bridge at the last DC in and out meet was pretty fun.

hmm.. how about a friday then? the 5th? I'm not sure if people are working then or not. If not what about Sunday the 7th?

Man am I the only one with finals that week?

SilviaNinja240
11-17-2003, 11:31 PM
even on a sunday?... c'mon, nobody's got nothing on sunday (maybe work, but plenty of time to request the day off) Friday I can see some problems though beacause it's still a workday/schoolday

I dont think that will but such a good idea......

kazuo
11-18-2003, 04:46 PM
Norcal meets aren't touge meets. 30+ cars on a touge run is not a good idea. Plus where the hell are you going to touge in Frisco? Lombard? :P

Anyways, if you want to touge, round up some people at the meet and go do it afterwards. (Like we always do)

At any rate, I would prefer a sunday meet since I don't have to ask for saturday off, but I can probably make saturday.

Luke: The earlier we have the meet, the less chance that people will stick around for a bonfire. :D

And also, we need to try and work around finals as best as possible. But I find it odd that you UC people have finals so early cus yall got into skewl way after us (we started in August and you cats started in end of September)

But I am thinking 6th or 7th or 13th or 14th. 13/14 probably being better.

woot.

hey, i'm from marin too! freaking live in marinwood, wut u talkin about NZO? haha..n e ways, yea, i agree with the whole date thing..a lot of us..actually i think a lot of us have finals around that period. The original set day seemed pretty good...kinda before christmas..this would allow a lot of us time to get work off or organize or fit this meet into our schedule. As far as time wise, it get darks early so afternoon around 12ish would be good. Hopefully i'll be able to make it..I'll try to get saturday off since I have work in the afternoon usually..but yea, december 13th would work for me since my last midterm is the 11th.

Okay, what about the 14th instead of the 13th, it's a sunday instead. My girlfriend is like "you HAVE to be at my Xmas party on the 13th!" I'm like "I got plans woman, there's a 240sx meet then", then she's like "YOU ALWAYS GO TO THOUSE MEETS!", (actully, she wanted to come too, but I told her I'd be boring and jazz but she still wants to go:rolleyes: ) then I get bitched at for 20 minutes then I feel bad. So is it cool on the 14th instead of the 13th?

As for the time I wanted to have more activities than just the bonfire and just hangin' out, so we have a few options. 1) Get there a little early for pics n' chillin' I still like the idea of a Zilvia.net football game or B-ball game. I wanna set up another meet for something like that eventully, or 2) Just get there at Night for the bonfire and then go do something (whatever people feel like) I'm thinking of maybe a compramise a little of both... 4.30pm?? If not that maybe 6pm which would be pretty dark. whatcha'll think?

Hopefully when next quarter comes, i'll be fine..but right now, i'm failing calc, barely passing chem, and yea...:hammer:

true dat..they consume time and money too! but they are worth it for the feeling they give u :) well most of the time..n e ways, didn't mean to jack the thread. So the 14th of December is the new date?

dvdevo
11-19-2003, 07:07 PM
hah i jacked the thread too but anywyas.. we should have a poll to see.. there's never a good estimate of the # of people that would go. Maybe a poll would be better cause so many people are lazy to push the reply button and type stuff, and click send. :hammer:

11-20-2003, 02:42 AM
It's still kind of a ways away, I don't think we should worry about attendance until a week or so before the date. So anyways, let's just have it on the 14th, if people can't make it to this one, we can always have another bonfire meet another time, no problem. Unless masses and masses of people can't do it then we'll change it
so how about this:
PLACE: San Francisco Cliffhouse parking lot, (down the hill by the oceanside beach)
TIME: Dec. 14th @ 4.30pm
how's that sound?

David why you talking... You're a newbie to the 240sx scene... :axe:

Naw... But hopefully my car will be ready looks like the car should be good to go with Turbo in by next Friday... Unfortanatly not in time to be able to enter any of the events at the Nissan Owners Festival thing... Cause I won't be done till Friday night so there is no way I'm heading out right when I finish...

how about on the 13th, because Saturday is a better day all around. People will stick around longer. Or if the 13th isnt a good day, what about December 6th?

SilviaNinja240
11-21-2003, 10:25 PM
the 6th is good for me, but for some reason I remeber people said they have to study for finals that day or something, or there was another event. And there is no way I can be there on the 13th :(
So we have to change the date, please let's not have the 13th, pretty please;)

ootranceformeroo
11-21-2003, 10:53 PM
Theres a private event at Buttonwillow that weekend(the 6th) Also it dont think it has to be the 6th or the 13/14th. Are you guys THAT anxious to have another meet...I know theyre fun and all but I'm just saying that it could be the week after the 13th or even the week after that...(unless thats christmas..) Or even just a BIG meet to start off the NEW YEAR! ahah just an idea.

At night theres tons of bonfires that go on and nothing ever seems to happen. I think the thing that might stop us is that it will be HELLA cold....of course theres the bonfire but last time it went it was sooooooooooooo cold...i could berely stay warm from the fire.

trsilvias13
11-22-2003, 03:07 PM
just to let u guys know, that bonfire in richmond mostly get stopped, that mean near ob safeway. and on the sunset side they dont care as long as it stay 3ftx3ftx3ft. and also the parking you are talking about next to the beach is prohibited at 10pm.

just a heads up for the planners.

also if you drink on the beach, i clean up, the police hate on liter people

Drift_Ladie
11-23-2003, 10:12 PM
are police pretty strick over ther?

SilviaNinja240
11-23-2003, 10:30 PM
I think you guys are making this more harder than you think it is. Even if the cops kick you out after 10pm, I seriously doubt we will be there that long. And yeah, it WILL be HELLLLA cold, but we just have to be sure to bring lots of, sweaters, jackets, blankets, n' jazz. It'll probobly be in the 50s or so, so just be prepared with your stylish artic wear.
Even if everyone can't make it on that day, Nor Cal 240 meets are just about on a weekly basis. I'm sure we'll have another bonfire meet soon enough in the future, beacause it's really the ONLY place in SF to have a meet with a bunch of 240s. PLUS, it also gives the marin/sonoma, and east bay 240s a chance for a closer meet, since most nor cal meets are in the SJ area

The 14th is a Sunday;)
yea, if I rains out we'll have an alternate spot in the area. Any suggestions? We probobly can't all have our cars in the same place though, beacause the SF beachside is the only place I can think of that has hella parking spaces open. But still good to have a back up plan
