Moving to NorCal!!!

Hey Guys (and Gals),

I'm moving to the SF Bay Area next week, and as my girlfriend pointed out, I like to have my "car friends."

So, Car Friends - who lives in the North Bay/Marin area? I'll be moving to San Rafael, and spend time between there and Sebastopol (Near Santa Rosa) regularly. Who's local, and likes to hang out, talk cars/efficiency, drink beer, brew beer, ride bikes, etc?

I like to do all of those things! Unfortunately, don't live in Cali.

(Shudders at the thought of another approaching winter...)

Congrats on the move & good luck finding some EM car friends out there.

Drat!!! I saw that you replied, and thought you were going to move there too....shoot.

Thanks for the congrats though! I'm sure I can find some people on here, or drag some people up there over to the dark side.

I wonder if this might work better for you in the "meet-ups" section...

It's not miscat, it's open-ended.

I'll move it over and see if you get some more bites.
