kettleman- PLEASE arrange a police for directing traffic this year. That stoplight before the freeway spread us out over a 30 min. start time. Arrival times at Izzys were even more disjointed.
What fun is a run if everyone does it seperately? Besides, a parade of 100+ cars down I-5 will raise more publicity for the cause than anything else we could do.

That is being worked out. I asked him about this last year after I ran into some problems with Des Moines and Sea-Tac police. Oly police could help us, but they said we needed to go to the City offices before the day to get the EXACT route and time planned out to the letter.
I think we are going to get more cars involved this year. Last year it was late November when we did it. This year it is closer to Christmas so more people will see the point.
seemed to me like more of a back up in kent at the 277th st. onramp than when we finally got to oly.
I know, but we had to get authorization from the city council to have police support, and a possible permit to get the police to block traffic so we could get out faster.
Well here is the deal, my baby is due Dec 7th. But the way she is acting she will probably be out before thanksgiving. If so, we are going for sure. If she still doesn't come out till the 7th. Well then we're probably not coming. I do hope she does come. I'd like to take Colin's new Elantra for a spin!
And I might take the motorcycle out. It would be awesome to roll with my Korean bike with all the Korean cars!
