Seattle to SoCal Rally is now on the calander
Fred H. and Jason L. and I got together today and scratched out a game plan for an epic Cobra Rally for Aug. 1 through the 10th , 2009. This will be the longest of any prior trips however, it is sure to be the best! We want to top the trip to Banff and the prior trip to Redwoods. In order to make it all the way to Santa Barbra and back in less then two weeks, we decided to take the coast on the way down and have two freeway days to get back home. We would like to have everyone who is considering going please post your interest. We will have a final commit day of May 1st, 2009. Jason, Fred, and I will be planning the route and chosing clean, economical motels which we will block out rooms. It will be the responsibility of those wishing to go to call and make thier own room reservations. All of the motel info will come in future posts. One of the reasons I am posting this so early is so people can talk about it and start saving some cash...This will not be a cheap trip. However, it's a chance to to cruise Hwy 101 and Hwy 1 all the way to Southern California with a group of Cobras and great people (If I do say so myself
.)
The schedule is the following:
Day 1 Tacoma area to Florence
Day 2 Florence to Eureka
Day 3 Eureka to San Francisco
Day 4 San Francisco -Day trip to the wine country
Day 5 San Francisco -Downtown trip
Day 6 San Francisco to Salinas (Stops in Monteray & Carmel)
Day 7 Salinas to Santa Barbra
Day 8 Santa Barbra - Day trip ?
Day 9 Santa Barbra to Redding
Day 10 Redding to Tacoma
I can honestly say that doing an extended Cobra vacation is one of the best ways to travel and meet fantastic people. We are sure to make many memories! Jason has already started working on a commerative gumball for the side of the Cobras that will be worn by all cars on the Rally.
