CNelson Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Anyone interested in going to this event? It's May 26 & 27th. I can lead this, for sure. I think there is a camping ground outside the city. I'll do more research. I read in the SF Chronicle that there are going to be lots of events and vendors. I really want to go.

NomaD110 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Sounds cool. Is this an off road or overlanding focused event? What kind of vendors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNelson Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 It's about the bridge, silly. But I think it's going to be a bunch of art and food vendors. I'm going regardless if I camp or not. It's going to be pretty big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDeWitt Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Crystal, There are 4 campgrounds in the Marin Headlands area, reservation only. A couple of them have views of the bridge. Google "campgrounds Marin Headlands", or NPS.gov and look under "camping". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNelson Posted March 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Thanks! I guess this is a dud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMBRover Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 There is supposed to be a ham radio special event station set up somewhere. I'm going to see if I can find out where and sign up for an operating stint. Should be a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandRonB Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Thanks! I guess this is a dud? Well, maybe not yet. Let's try this. I am that half full glass type of guy (smile). Could we get (Mike, can you pls look into this) enough interest (dealers/clubs) to rent Bodega Bay private trail in Marin? Could we also order 75th Anniv Golden Gate baseball caps ($15.95 retail) and have http://www.nclrclub.org stitched on them (like what Rovers North did as one of our give-aways last annual gathering)? And can we throw in ham radio. Like to add cooking in the mix, camping Friday, wheeling Saturday and caravan across the Golden Gate bridge on Sunday May 27th - celebrating its 75th anniversay since May 27, 1937! Local vendor sponsor e.g. Tepui, Royal Robins (clothing)... Anyone interested? Shouldn't conflict w/our Pismo trip the week before and nothing is planned for this wknd! Crystal - if enough interest, I can help you co-plan this. C yah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Bodega Bay trail? If you are talking about the ranch that has the goats and the guy who will sell you eggs and honey before you leave, then yes, I'm interested. I cut my offroading teeth there, under the direction of Tim Scully and Lee McGee. Would love to return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNelson Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Sweet, Ron! I looked into the camping at Kirby, no dice. Weekend is already reserved. I don't think there are any other camping near there. 28 miles North is another... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandRonB Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Ok I reached out to LR Marin and LR Walnut Creek; asked if they have any plans to do LR Wheeling Event @ Bodega Bay; will post response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandRonB Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Ok I reached out to LR Marin and LR Walnut Creek; asked if they have any plans to do LR Wheeling Event @ Bodega Bay; will post response. Have not heard back from these dealerships especially plans for GG Anniv. If my family and I are in town, will probably just head over Marin and have lunch, and back.

Phil. Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 who runs that one in Bodega? Cheri grew up out there and is curious as to who it is. John Braybyn is the owner of that Bodega Bay property - Salmon Creek Ranch? He started rangerovers.net. Why couldn't we just contact him directly?

LandRonB Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Phil, your lead may come thru. Carl from RRnet responded to me; meant to send it to John. Now checking with John. Carl is checking for his avail. We can keep the agenda simple - my suggestion. Meet somewhere in San Francisco eg Crissy Fields, drive thru the historic Golden Gate Bridge, meet at Bodega Bay, work out an appetite for lunch wheeling and then catered lunch. Variety of wine brought in for tasting optional after wheeling and during lunch (no drinking and driving). I know it's last min and less than 1 month to plan - why not. Cost est $20 for food catered. $10 for wine tasting. These are est cost - will be depending on head count. Anyone interested in making this happen on May 27; celeb GG bridge turning 75 and wheeling on a privacy prop in Bodega Bay? Post up if you are asap so I can get a head count. Also I am reaching to LR in Redwood City - one of our sponsors. See if they would interested in joining/sharing the cost. Just do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineryrover Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Hey Ron, I am pretty sure that John is going to be at the mendo recce trip this weekend. If he is, I will try to get a feel from him about your suggestions. Great plan, I don't know if I can make it, but it sure sounds like fun! If all works out and you need some vino, let me know.

LandRonB Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 That would be great Robb if you can get a sense of what John would think of my suggestion. Thanks! Let John also know that I initially suggested the idea on Range Rover Net; Carl from RR Net ended-up receiving my message, and was also going to check with him. And yes if it all works out, would like to take your offer on some vino; PM sent. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
