If you get in the San Rafael area Thursday (the host hotel is the Embassy Suites; it is currently fully booked), we are having a casual Early Arrivers Cruise late Thursday afternoon.
There's some beautiful scenic routes in the area of SAAC-35, once you get off the freeways.
For our early arrivers, we have planned a casual 3-hour cruise off the beaten path and up the Pacific Coast Highway.
Meet up for this event at the Embassy Suites Hotel in San Rafael on Thursday, August 26 at 5 pm.
The grid will be set and we are looking at a 5:30 departure.
There is no fee for this cruise and it's up to you to be sure that your vehicle is set for a 60 mile round-trip.
We will have a chase car to help handle any unforeseen emergencies.
From the Embassy Suites, we will head South on 101, against the traffic and jump off on the Shoreline Highway 1.
First stop...Muir Beach
Stinson Beach and Point Reyes Station are stops along the way.
The return trip will cross Lucas Valley and bring us back to the hotel.
The total distance is a little more than 60 miles; with photo stops along the way, the duration should be nearly 3 hours, getting us back to the hotel around 8:30 pm.
