[JONAT] JONAT SECTOR COORDINATORS - PLEASE NOTE

We've decided that JONAT can post in the pub. The problem with posting to
the individual lists is that they are supposed to be for items relating to
the vehicles in question. People outside the U.S. (other than Fazal)
probably are not going to care to much about it.

Here's something everyone could do, and stay within the rules. There is
nothing wrong with having a signature that include a few lines like your
cars, your club, your business, etc. 

Create a signature along  the lines of:

Ron Rader, So. Cal. Coordinator
Jaguar Owners North American Tour, http://jonat.org
Join our ongoing discussions in the Pub Forum

The idea is to squeeze as much in about three or four lines as you can.

Then we all need to sign up for the Pub. If we start discussing things
there, people will have some input and a reason to follow the progress. 

Mark (signing up for the pub right now.)

Is there any reason that we cannot promote this on the Jag lovers pages? 
i am a member of the E group. 
I need some help and also from the local Jag clubs and Jag dealers.

having just that information.  One slight problem is that I do not have an
Oregon person to link up with yet, so I do not know exactly when they will
be turning the "bunch" over to me.  So in lieu of waiting, I'm planning on
routing out the Oregon coast for the run.  I still would like to know if we
have someone in Northern California though to hook up with at that point.
If not, once I get the routing through Oregon and Washington done, the
person between Ron and Oregon will be pretty locked in on the time available
for them to run the route and places to see. Sorry about that but we must
move forward, right? Michael?  You and Ron have been talking right?  Do you
know which day you are figuring on being in the San Francisco end of your
side trip? Or Ron?  Do you have a day selected for when you are planning to
be at the most Northern end of your Sector? Jamie Duffey

 Bob: thanks for the clarification, and I would just like to point out that
the Vancouver section *must* coincide with the Van Dusen show on Saturday
the 22 of May; cars will have to be IN Vancouver the night before, or very
close by to be on the field before 10 AM. In addition this is the Victoria
Day weekend in Canada, so the entry to Vancouver should be done BY Friday
(Friday evening will be a worse than usual traffic period). Monday the 24th
is actually Victoria Day (ie, a remembrance of Queen Victoria's birthday),
but we should be on our way to Penticton by then, and there won't be any
real problem.    But we here have to know dates from the Seattle sector
fairly soon.                                                        Gregory

GregoryThe gruelling, up to the minute schedule, is set by the computer and
is a little retentive.  (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!).  It may
be gruelling, but I'll leave you and your team to de-gruelize it - keep in
mind it's only a starting point for discussion.On the schedule, there is
three days for sure in your sector.  You will see the pink days on the
itinerary athttp://jonat.org/bob/JONAT_Itinerary.pdfare unspoken for days.
I have left in as a float in case any Sector upstream of you (or your Sector
itself for that matter) needs them.  My pink note might not be very clear,
but the intent is if anyone upstream needs them, they would be given the
extra day, and that means one less pink day in your area on the
itinerary.Right now we have two points on the Tour that are linking with
pre-planned events.  One in your Sector, and one in Phoenix.  This means we
have to be quite disciplined in our time per Sector scheduling. You can see
that it is therefore important that everyone needs to have in place the
number of days to cross their sector in place soon, so everyone downstream
of them knows the actual dates of the Tour in their area. I hope this is a
little more clear (as mud I suppose!).  I guess what I need to stress is
that all Sectors need to be de-gruellified, and also the times to traverse
the Sectors need to be set in the not to distant future.Bob England

Bob: regarding the Victoria-Vancouver segment: the routing is fine, but the
times and schedule present a grueling, cruel and unusual punishment.     It
is my understanding that the participants would have several days in this
area, from the 16th of May to the 22nd (for the Van Dusen show).
Furthermore, the actual directions given within the cities are bizarre and
will have to be changed. So: the route is fine, but we are working here
under the assumption that there will be a few days at least in this area. It
is not possible, for example, to leave Whistler in the morning and to be on
the Van Dusen field in time for the show. People must be in Vancouver the
night before. If the timing is not the issue right now, but only the route,
then the general route is fine. We have been working on optional daytrips
around this area (well worth doing: the wine country, over to the wild
Pacific at Tofino, etc). No one is going to want to drive day after day.
Comment?                                        Gregory
