2nd Annual Mt. Baker Meet & Cruise

[SamuraiSam]

It's the second annual ClubSi/Multi-Forum Mt. Baker Meet & Cruise put on by yours truly. Last year I think we had about 77 cars and I'm expecting a bigger turnout this year! I've read on forums and have been told by more then a handful of people that last year's cruise was the best they'd ever been on, and this year with the help of H&R Springs, we're stepping it up a notch. You won't want to miss this one!



Date & Time: Saturday, September 8th 2007 at 10:00 AM, RAIN OR SHINE

Meeting Place: Burlington, WA. Cascade Mall/Applebee's parking lot, the southeast corner, near Sears and Macys. To get there, head to Burlington. Coming north or south on I-5, you'll take Exit #230 and then an immediate right on SR20 - Go 3 blocks and make a right onto Burlington Blvd. Cascade Mall will be a few blocks down on your right:





General Info: Please be at the parking lot no later then 10:00 AM. Grab some free goodies, including Krispy Kreme donuts (thanks to H&R Springs) and pick up a map from me. A short "driver's meeting" will be held around 10:30 and then we'll head out to Baker.
You'll want to bring:
•an extra layer of clothes, "just in case"
•a picnic lunch and plenty of water/drinks
•a Motorola Talkabout-style FRS radio that's capable of using security codes - we will be on channel 07, code 04.
•There may be a $5.00 per car fee payable to the National Forest Service when we arrive at Heather Meadows, so bring cash!

Rules: No overly aggressive driving will be tolerated - you will be asked to leave. That means NO DRIFTING. We're driving enthusiasts going on a spirited cruise, not millionaires on a Gumball rally.

Consider: Fuel past Bellingham is CRAP not to mention expensive. There is a Shell station in Maple Falls, but prices there are very expensive. There's a Chevron directly across from the Cascade Mall parking lot and you pass a Shell station at the intersection of SR20 and Burlington Boulevard just after you turn off I-5.

We'll all drive back and start splitting off whenever people have to head, but don't plan on being back in Burlington before 3pm.

[zack_odom]

Lol..thanks dude! lol
I keep buggin you on every site on the net sam!
and sup Danny? lol (Who STILL hasn't made a post on SI yet...hmmm..)

[Primo]

Thats a Big list...

[SamuraiSam]

Kind of rediculous, huh? We'll actually be splitting into six smaller groups with designated & stickered leaders, spaced out by a few minutes. Everyone will be on the same route, and we'll probably 'congeal' nicely on 542 in the Glacier area it all goes to plan.

[zack_odom]

We will?
Oh well then I definetly need to ask you some things then.
Number one:
Where is the place where we will uh, congeal (yuk btw...)
I would like to be taking video of everyone...
I want to be able to get the huge amount of cars in some freeway shot or something....
Last one:
where is 542? and can I and my video crew jump ahead to that location?

[SamuraiSam]

The group leaders will be instructed to slow way down at Glacier as the speed limit drops there. There is a turnoff around that area which is the only stop we will make on the drive up, and hopefully there will be enough room. It was a close call last time with about 80 cars, but i think if we organize the parking a bit more, we will be OK. IIRC there is about 20 miles of driving after Glacier, and as far as twistys and elevation chage goes, its the best part by far. I'd reccomend just being part of the cruise and having fun. If you want to film the best opportunity is on the road to Artists Point which is after we arrive at heather meadows.

[zack_odom]

I suppose that make sense.....
Well I will do my best with what I got.
