Grant Ranch Meet - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

This is just a thought but we need to set up a potluck meet at some park in the hills. I think Grant Ranch up Mount Hamilton would be kewl. That way there's a drive there anda drive back. And once there we can have a BBQ and crub.

This is just a thought. What do you guys think. We could meet up somewhere first then drive up there in groups. For those that don't know there are two ways of getting to Grant Ranch one is up Mount Hamilton and one is up Quimby Road in San Jose and both drives could be really fun.

nokeone · 10-08-2003, 02:06 PM

i'd be game...although i have no idea where that is..lol

knghtryde · 10-09-2003, 12:25 PM

Grant Ranch is in San Jose. There is about a 15 minute drive from the city to the park and the entire drive is nothing but curves. I like to take the drive at night. Is a great and fun drive. It's also two different drives, One would get us there and the other one would get us back.

Come on everyone show me who'd be interested. Shiet if you got younger brothers or sisters bring em along to the BBQ.

If I get some peeps who are interested I'll set it up. I'll even bring some Hotdogs, drinks, and chips.

Let me know.

driftcrazy · 10-09-2003, 02:27 PM

when do u wanna do this?

knghtryde · 10-09-2003, 02:34 PM

Okay. Here it is. How about Saturday, November 1. We meet up at 12:00 noon at the Save Mart Shopping center on McKee and Toyon in San Jose. It's in the East Hills. From 680 you take the McKee Road exit towards the east hills. We'll take off at 12:30 to Grant Ranch, where my wife will already have a fire going in the BBQ grill and all the drinks and stuff. We'll drive up there. Then I'll turn around once we get to the top and head back to get anyone who got their late and doesnt' know the way.

Let me know if anyone is interested.

And it doesn't have to be November 1 it could be the 2nd.

driftcrazy · 10-09-2003, 02:40 PM

yo r yall sure that hyperfest has been cancelled cuz i went to hyper-fest.com and they dont say anything about it being cancelled. plus i have not heard anything in the news. i thing it is still going on. i am gonna call sears point to be for sure.

95Blue240sx · 10-11-2003, 05:11 PM

if theres not as many people as the last meet im willing to go. i can get about 3-5 other 240 owners to come too.

Andrew Bohan · 10-11-2003, 10:09 PM

that sounds like fun

asdf54 · 10-14-2003, 12:10 AM

wait, whers great ranch exactly?

knghtryde · 10-14-2003, 11:59 AM

Grant Ranch is in the East Hills of San Jose. It's about 20 minutes worth of winding roads that makes a really fun drive.

Okay so here's are the details:

Sunday, November 2, 2003
1:00 P.M. at the Corner of McKee and Toyon
SaveMart Parking Lot, (I'll Post the Address Later)
Leave for Grant Ranch at 1:30 P.M.

My wife will be meeting us at Grant Ranch with a BBQ going. I'll supply some hot dogs and burgers. I'll Also supply some drinks, and Patato Chips.

Let me know who's going. I don't think it's going to be a big turn out cause not many peeps are responding, but Let me know any wayz who's planning on going or who can go that way I won't buy to much food. I am on a slight budget.

95Blue240sx · 10-14-2003, 12:33 PM

why not make it a saturday?

knghtryde · 10-15-2003, 04:21 PM

ootranceformeroo · 10-16-2003, 01:30 AM

I might be down. I can probaly bring a couple 240s.

s13chica · 10-16-2003, 09:30 AM

I can make it either day...but I think the 2nd will be better since a lot of people might be very tired/hung over, after halloween. Just some food for thought.

knghtryde · 10-20-2003, 03:28 PM

I should have all details down within the next few days. I will definately be suppling food for the meet. It will be a go on November 1, 2003. As soon as I get the time and everything I'll open a new thread. So for anyone who wants free food and drinks I will be suppling hot dogs, hamburgers, chips and sodas. It should be fun for everyone who shows up. Even if there wasn't much of a response.

knghtryde · 10-20-2003, 03:31 PM

Off topic, but Does anyone know how to attach a picture to your signature. I've been trying all day. And if you don't see a picture you know I've failed.

driftcrazy · 10-28-2003, 01:51 PM

coo i will try to roll up. if i have ma ride back

knghtryde · 10-28-2003, 02:30 PM

Okay me and my wife are going to get to Grant Ranch about 11am to find a nice BBQ area where we can park close by, but I was just told right now that they sometimes charge $4 per car to come in. Is that kewl with everyone. I want to get there early so that when the meet starts we won't be trying to find a parking area or picnic area. I also want to get a place close to some rest rooms.

If not let me know. I don't want to start BBQing all this food and nobody show up.

For those who don't know Grant Ranch it's 8 miles of really nice turns, and mountain driving.

knghtryde · 10-28-2003, 02:32 PM

Hey Dave (Driftcrazy) if you don't have you're ride why don't you just bring your S14.

Var · 10-28-2003, 05:27 PM

count me in. i have carne asada sitting around in my fridge(dont worry it's not moldy....yet)
