Hey Jerry:
I am doing the section from LA to SLO. I would think we could get the lads at
XKs Unlimited to have some kind of dinner on Thursday night. I have not
contacted them since I am leaving that up to the SF co coordinator. <grin>

We will be all day in LA on Wednesday the 5th. Leaving LA on Thursday the 6th
between 8.30 and 9.00 AM (I don't know yet) and driving to Los Olivos (winery
area) for lunch at one of the wineries. Then to SLO with the arrival planned for
between 4 and five PM.

I am planning that the roads from LA to SLO will be on secondary roads the
entire way. The map book says about 204 miles buy I would guess that my route
would be closer to 250 miles. Thoughts? Comments?
Ron Rader

FYI:  I am planning on driving from Las Vegas to Vancouver and shipping my car
back.
