However, we like to switch it up each week but if we want to make it a regular spot then that is okay by me. And, I am sure @SeanBlader would like that
Your show sirs and ma'ams! Always has been. However the SB want and where to do it, post it.

And I saw you're willing to offer a hand with Sean's recent tire debacle

That said, I do enjoy where this community (SB in particular) is going. They are getting together on other days to hang out, do things together, online and offline. I still remember the early days where folks would stand around, frightened, shy, maybe even didn't want to be there, but now are the center of attention, they've become the inviter as well as the invitee.

The 86drive founders have spent many days and drives conjuring up ideas to build this community, all of the communities. We've tackled each other's schedules and challenged personal lives so that its not always between he and I but more of US. And I think it's succeeding.

Regardless where and how you meet, sharing stories face to face in the company of others that can relate, is a big win for all. So meet on! Whether it be at a bowling alley and karaoke or in front of the big screen, meet on!
just a thought some of us can do either tuesday or wednesday... it was the reason why we have it interchangeable rather than having it fixed on wednesday...

but its no big deal since we always hang out outside of meet anyway...

the next push up bowling challenge will be hosted by @Rollan and karaoke contest by @doggieboy09

@SeanBlader bowling again?

I can underatand moving it to accommodate, but I kow there are skme who like to attend meets in other areas so with 3 weekly meets I think it would be helpful to keep at least the days the same. Location would be nice but not necessary. With fixed dates for multiple meets if you miss one you can always go to another

I think we are all missing the point of these meets. It's somewhere during the middle of the week to either break up the week or somewhere to go and talk cars while the traffic dies down. So it doesn't have to be on a certain day and/or conflict with other meets during the week. If you can make it then great and if you can't then we will see you next time. I would rather have people talk about meeting up than one person show up to a regular meet when everyone else is busy. IONO. Just my opinion.

True. And we all know you probably attend 2x as many meets as any of us. Lol. But not everyone sits on the forums all day at work like some of us. And of course other can meeet up whenever and if nobody can come then cancle it or move it that week.

I believe there is at least a movie night on Thurs to go see Need For Speed. Not sure what's going on tonight. There's also one in Dublin on Fri night, but a little far from SJ. Check out the 86Drive calendar for upcoming events, @PMok is usually pretty diligent in updating the calendar

Feel free to subscribe to this thread to get the latest on where there next meet will be in the southbay.

You can also always check out the calendar of events that @PMok constantly keeps updated here: http://86drive.com/events/

Hope this helps!

I think this week (tomorrow perhaps?) there will be a bunch viewing Need for Speed. Not sure if this is confirmed publicly or in PM. Stay tuned here!

Since no one has suggested otherwise, I would say that it is a safe bet that we will be at Five Guys again on 1st street around 7:00. I'll be there for sure and hopefully others will too. I always look forward to bringing new folks into the fold.
