Come visit the link above to see what all the fuss is about.
Looks to be a great weekend. For those that went on the Gallop, I've let a hand, so this should be a great weekender.

All mustangs: colors, shapes, sizes and years are invited.

If you're not a member of Blackmustangclub.com and you want to go PM me I'll let Ichiduo know you want to go.

can be used to go to Pebble Beach to take pics.

After the cruise and photo ops. of Seaside, we will have dinner. Dinner for Seaside is being being looked up right now, we'll have a place soon.

We will be staying in Seaside, Saturday night. The following hotels have rooms avail. Due to people being on a budget, the best course of action is to pick which hotel suits your price range. They are all near each other, so we won't be all over the place. If people want to have hotel parties / go to a bar, google the addresses and make sure you guys stay at places closest to each other / closest to the bar.

Im thinking about going anyone else.

derynf

rrobello, I see you're a champion for socal organization and events.

rrobello

SurfnSoCal

I'll go if I can get the cash...that's alot of gas money.

derynf

But well worth it, I think.

I've driven up north a number of times. It is a great drive through the 101 (although it is a longer drive than the 5).
I've taken my 1992 Maxima (auto) on the 5. The Maxima is really close to the Mustangs mpg (Mustang manual may be even better!), and I only fill it up when I start the trip, once in the middle, and I get there with about a quarter of a tank to go

derynf

We've got
10 people saying they are going from BMC
2 people saying they might go from TMS
4 people saying they are interest from WHC

We'd like to see a large presence of Mustangs in Monterey.

Ichiduo

hey guys, as many of you know, i planned a gtg - cruise for the seaside / monterey this past aug. 13 and 14 with the help from everyone on the bmc. i have taken footage from the cruise - gtg and made music videos of them. i made a day 1 vid and day 2 vid.

day 1:

http://www.sn8k.com/~ichiduo/videos/CruiseD1.wmv

day 2:

http://www.sn8k.com/~ichiduo/videos/CruiseD2.wmv

if you want my advice, download day 2 first and watch it. it's the better of the two vids with the most stuff.

enjoy guys.

i'll be trying to make this an annual thing with the rest of the guys on the bmc and other forums such as this one, so i hope to see you there next year.
