El Solis Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Rupert is thinking of joining up with the Sierra Trip after the Cars and Coffee so people can do both. Right now there are only 4 trucks confirmed for the Sierra Trip so I might change the departure date to the 7th after the C&C too. Not sure why it's being discussed at the BoD meeting though other than the 4 confirmed drivers for the Sierra Trip will be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 So I think I'm in for this one, I haven't had much time to take the GDE out with the birth of baby 2 and starting BR back up. So count me in, as well I may have a customer who wants to come in his 91 Classic (Full resto) But for now 1991 Range Rover Classic GDE will be there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHappel Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 I'll touch base with Rupert et al tomorrow, but I might bed up for doing the C&C then straight to the Sierra trip depending on how it would work. I'm already going to have to bail one day mid-trip since Michele has a meeting she can't reschedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROVRMAN2 Posted July 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 I'd like the club members to setup their orange club flags during the event.No need to wash or wax your vehicle, BlackHawk understands we are an off-road club. This is a Cars & Coffee event. Therefore, safari stripes, dings, and mud are A-OK. (probably preferred).(The museum director is from Kent, England, so knows about Land Rovers) An actual row for 15 vehicles will be reserved for NCLR until 8AM. Any other club vehicles (late attendees) will be parked close by.Suggested time to show up is between 6:30am to 7am. Docents and volunteers from the museum will guide us to our club spot.( It is near the cinema theater).Show up early, each driver may get a free pass to the museum. ( 400 passes can go fast--sponsored by JLR Walnut Creek---BlackHawk expects up to 800 vehicles).I hear Mike Green from West Coast Rovers usually attends this event. I hope to immediately rendezvous with the Sierra Trek after this event. So pre-pack your vehicle if you want to do both. More signups please. Let's publicize your great club! How to get there:http://www.blackhawkmuseum.org/#0931001?tv=5281573437964288 goto mainpage>click visit>click direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjohanson Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 If anyone has a full sized club flag I have a "tailgate" flag pole. http://www.united-states-flag.com/tailgating-flagpole-set-by-valley-forge.html I am also happy to get one made if I can get a high resolution club logo file.

astateofmike Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Do we need to bring ground covering for our leaky Rovers or will we be in the parking lot and won't be a problem? Just thinking if we were not on asphalt, since I know mine will leak, that we might think ahead on that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdvRovr Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 I think it's always a good idea to bring a drip pan if you have a leaky vehicle unless you know for a fact that drips on the parking surface are fine. At many car shows, even old cars that don't leak bring them just in case. O'Reilly has large carpet drip mats for about $10 that are 3' x 5' so you can use your tires to hold it in place if windy, and you can roll it up and toss in the back when done. IMHO, it's is necessary to demonstrate professionalism and respect for the venue as a club. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROVRMAN2 Posted July 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Bring a drip pan if needed.If any of you club members have a business, this is also a good opportunity to pass out your busness cards.For sure: Mexxi's, British Recyclers, CTmotorwerks are attending. Any others want to write off mileage as a biz expense? On C&C days, the museum opens early at 9am. Bring the family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROVRMAN2 Posted July 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 cjohanson, I think "tailgate" flagpoles are frowned upon. So don't bring it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have clients who are members of the Ferrari club. While I may root for Kimi and Seb at the races, I'm not a huge fan of that particular club. They aren't exactly what I'd call 'down to earth' types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuamPilot Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 I'm on reserve, so I might be called in at the last minute. Otherwise, looks good for me to come with my wife. I'll try to bring both of my Defenders (and drip pans.) 1986 90, ExMoD soft top in camouflage, 2.5NA diesel. 1988 110, station wagon with full size safari rack, 300Tdi transplanted from a Disco. Steering wheel on the proper British side. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our GC at my previous employer is a Ferrari Club member. I remember him complaining that he went on a long vacation to Italy and his wife just had to have this $16,000 fine Italian decorative bowl, so of course what choice did he have but to buy it? He never quite understood why no one else could relate to that story..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
