Weapon of mass destruction....

 

Chemical and Biological WMD's!

 

Well if you remove the back seat there is room underneath, but just remember to put the seat back.. just thought I would help out, lol

 

Nope, rooms still available!! You guys should come and caravan with us!

 

If Jaydes going, I'll be there I'll bring Wes too.

 

Will be driving from North Carolina all 2268 miles, hope to see all my MINI Friends! Luke

 

I will be heading down to vegas around 1am on friday. In time to join the temple bar run at 9am. Staying till sunday for the valley of fire run and driving right back. Anybody wants to join me for a caravan from LA ?

 

In like FLYNN...

see you late niters on the roof

 

I'm planning on being there (in case you were wondering) and if you keep a sharp eye out, you might spot the babies wandering (well, being pushed) around too. Have to contact some of the vinyl guys about installing stripes on the stroller.

 

I'm planning to go but nothing registered yet .. (need to tell the new boss about vacation too!).

It's a 525 mile trip for me from San Jose and it'll be Avery's first time out of California and his longest trip away from home. It'll be a blast!

 

About 12.5 hours for us, taking the scenic "major fun Mini" route, and a stop over in Pahrump to visit Becky's folks.

580 Miles. Shorter if Tioga Pass through Yosemite opens early, but we're not counting on that.

 

Yeah the route I looked at was taking 5 I think .. but I may take 99 down instead.

 

The thing we hate about 99, is how crappy it is near Bakersfield. Also, on I-15 coming back from Vegas, is a freaking agro inspection center that sometimes backs up for miles. Lastly, Becky's folks have warned us of construction work along I-15 that will have lanes closed in March.

 

Me and Mrs. V will be there, and son with 'S' will too, with his wife and little boy.

 

Hopefully I'll be motoring in with BLUCOOPR

 

I couple of years ago, I took I-5 then switched over to I-99 to Bakersfield. It wasn't that exciting a drive. Need something twistier and less bumpy.

...I'm also wondering if there's going to be a sign-up thread to hug Batgirlwildcat this year.

 

YAY! Haven't seen yous guys in a loooong time!

 

Jayde, when are you guys leaving OKC maybe we can meet up with ya and drive out. Right now looks like two of us driving from Charlotte NC.

 

Not likely, as I don't spend time on NAM anymore... but indeed there will still be hugs.

 

Gromit (and anyone else coming from the direction of the Bay area), here's a suggestion.

From Delano (on 99) shoot east on 155 to Lake Isabella and then curl around to 178 to Ridgecrest. IIRC, 155 west of the lake (we actually did it east to west in a minivan on a family vacation to Sequoia from Vegas) had some good twisties. I define good as anytime my wife says to slow down more than once while hanging on

From Ridgecrest go back north on Trona road (Pit of the Earth) and then east through Death Valley. We're not hosting a DV run this year so if you're interested there's your chance

 

Just to put it out there, if anybody wants to share a room with me and another person to save a bit of money then please lmk. I already got rooms for friday and saturday night.

 

According to Mapquest, I have you beat by about 200 miles.

 

Nice route, except we don't want to be on 99 at all.

 

I am 2323 miles if you drive the most direct route, but I am stopping over in Chicago to visit friends.. does that count to the official mileage?
google actual distance (aprx)

 

This year I'm going to see if I can find an app to calculate all the distances for me based on zipcodes. Anyone know of one?
