vioaltec 03-27-2009, 11:53 PM You guys should meet up at Marina Square up in San Leandro. I used to work at lame as$ Gap and sometimes at night Lancers would meet up. Preety neat..... the whole lot was filled with colorful cars. Dont do Bayfair cause at nights there are alot of juvenile delinquents lol. I'll try to make it but i might be up in Brentwood.
Mr.Coupe 03-28-2009, 09:51 PM So when are we going to meet up guys?
It doesn't have to be a big meet just a small one. Maybe the San Lorenzo people can meet at the new In n out, Right next to Walmart. Let me know guys.
junbug 03-30-2009, 11:30 PM I'm down for one I'm from union city. San leandro would be cool to meet up there.

Mr.Coupe 04-02-2009, 09:37 AM I think the location for the meet should be in San leandro at the Marina Sqaure park. We can take picture there and have the Ocean and SF background.
the.pravo 04-02-2009, 11:51 AM alright guys so lets go with that idea for the location and as far as the date how does the following weekend of April 11th and 12th sound? if not the weekend after? 18th and 19th? lets set a date and get this rolling. Small or a Big group doesn't matter at this point but More the merrier ofcourse haha :banana:
Honda247 04-02-2009, 02:14 PM 18th and 19th. I'll be in the east coast the second week of April.
iiokuru 04-04-2009, 10:12 AM im coming from reno so please set a date asap.... thanks
Honda247 04-04-2009, 10:48 AM OK how about we do it the first weekend of next month. This will give ppl time to call in sick for the meet. As far as a location, IDK.
Bruce Hawkins 04-06-2009, 12:36 AM Add me in. I'd prefer somewhere not so far North, I'd be coming from the S. Bay area...
Mr.Coupe 04-06-2009, 11:28 AM My vote is for the 18.
junbug 04-06-2009, 07:23 PM 18th & 19th would be good for me. let's do it.
junbug 04-12-2009, 05:44 PM is this going to happen this coming weekend? Marina Square Park sounds good. let's do this.
Bruce Hawkins 04-13-2009, 03:29 PM Can you please post a full address. (or did I miss it?)

I think you take Marina BLVD all the way down to the parks main entrance. Usually when i go to the Marina i would just cut across through a community called "Heron Bay".
Mr.Coupe 04-16-2009, 01:26 PM I think the Marina square outlet would be good. A Lot of parking spot. We can meet in front of the nord storm rack store.
Nordstrom Rack San Leandro
1285 Marina Boulevard
San Leandro, CA 94577
On Saturday 4/18/2009 at 8:00 PM.

Bruce Hawkins 04-16-2009, 09:56 PM OK We've got two directions now?
1285 Marina Blvd, OR go down Marina Blvd to the end, which one?
dennisho18 04-16-2009, 11:27 PM its right across the street from San Leandro Honda

I think that will be a easy place to find.
Give me a count on how many people are showing up, and if you can bring some one to come along. Lets try to catch up with the people on 8th civic with there meets. (Days 26- i donk't think alot of girls sorry but you're welcome to invite some of your girlsfriend even if they don't have an accord.)
Mods or No Mods. It doesnt matter.

vioaltec 04-19-2009, 12:45 AM Wow did anyone actually went? I went at 9:30 and all i saw was a Lancer meet infront of starbucks. I saw one PMM Accord Coupe sitting in the parking lot adjacent to Starbucks.
Mr.Coupe 04-19-2009, 12:08 PM I was there I was in a Black hawk Coupe. I stay there for like 30 min then i was like **** it. No one was going to show up. So i left.

what time did you get there? All these flakers didnt show up!!!! :thumbsdow
Honda247 04-19-2009, 12:29 PM I just got back from Boston. So i didn't go. I'm still ajusting to the time difference.....
vioaltec 04-19-2009, 12:30 PM I just got back from Boston. So i didn't go. I'm still ajusting to the time difference.....
Thats no excuse! lol j.pppppp is it snowing up in Boston?
Mr.Coupe 04-19-2009, 04:18 PM I came at like around 8 45 and waited for 30 min.
vioaltec 04-19-2009, 04:24 PM So when are we going to meet up guys?
It doesn't have to be a big meet just a small one. Maybe the San Lorenzo people can meet at the new In n out, Right next to Walmart. Let me know guys.
The question is not when is our next meet, the question is if anyones going to attend it and not leave 2-3 members hanging waiting in the damn cold lol. Are you serious? There is no parking at the New Walmart. Plus you have a bunch of high school idiots roaming around in their 1995 buicks bumping their loud musics.
Honda247 04-19-2009, 04:29 PM Thats no excuse! lol j.pppppp is it snowing up in Boston?
Naw its pretty warm. High 60s to low 70s.
Bruce Hawkins 04-19-2009, 04:52 PM Good grief charily brown...
I was there too???
I arrived around 8.45pm. Drove around looking for any suspicious looking Honda Accords...
Eventually, I sat across from the Norsturm Rack, with my parking lights on, nose out, near the stores on the far side of the parking lot. At around 9.13pm, I drove to the park, sat there till 9.30pm. Then, I checked out the rest of the area. I sat by the Bay, got to see some fireworks across the Bay. I saw some tuner group (Lancers, I think) and a Dodge, group (old school looking station wagon, with V10 and Hemi's, forgot the name).
It was a 145 mile round trip. I like to drive, so it's no big deal, averaged 29.3 MPG, on this trip. Ended up seeing an area I've never seen before. Nice area. There was little traffic. It was comfortably worm...
Next time we try this, I think we need to be more exact in, describing the location (provide, Lat/Lon ;=). It should be scouted out, to make sure we can park in, that exact place. At the "rack" the front parking was a premium, as well as near StarBucks. We need a identifiable way to stand out. Like, how many Honda Accords were parked there???
This is the second time the meat has not worked out...
Possible Ideas:
Park with your parking lights on, back into the parking spot...
Any one have FRS radios, meet on FRS Channel 6, for example?
GPS (use Lat/Lon coordinates?
Organizer, PM their cell phone number, to participants?

Wow you wasted all that gas and no one showed up. Well technically we did show up, but at different times and we just ended up leaving. lol. You drove to Marina park? It was sweet last night eh, with the fireworks. Heard it was coming from the Britney Spears concert or something, my source was drunk lol. The only lancers i saw was infront of Starbucks. They usually have meets there and i would occasionally see them outside when i used to work at the Gap Outlet. Well atleast you did end your night on a good note.
Bruce Hawkins 04-19-2009, 05:26 PM I wrote more in that post, after you used it, in the above quote. We may want to think about, how we do our meets...
Mr.Coupe 04-19-2009, 10:27 PM I agree, Now we know that 3 of us are really down to go.
mr.ikon 04-20-2009, 11:03 PM I wanna join!! But it wont be until around september cause thats when i plan to get an accord.

I think you guys could post recent pictures of your cars so you get a visual idea of who to look for or use white shoe polish and write on your window something like drive accord or DA or somthing then when you think ppl get the idea you can wipe it off with windex or water?! Idunno just throwin out some ideas :nuts:
princess 04-22-2009, 02:01 PM I thought about making a flag.... using a suction cup with a light weight flexible pole & a DA flag. Putting it on my rear window after I park....:D
Have fun!!
markopoloha98 04-24-2009, 04:54 PM When is the next meet...:dunno:
Honda247 04-24-2009, 05:02 PM Maybe some1 should scout out where you are going to meet. Then decide on a time and date. Update the first page of this this thread of the time, date, and location. If ypu can take pics of the location and post them so every1 has an idea of where to meet. When we did the Socal meet this is what we did.
http://www.driveaccord.net/forums/showpost.php?p=346501&postcount=2
But i wouldn't make the meet at night, because there are some ppl coming from far and that would be late. Then it won't be a Norcal meet, it will be a local meet instead. I sure would love to come up for a meet. Solcal ppl can tell you that. i drove 4 hours to LA for a meet. I live in Fresno, basically the middle of Cali........
Bruce Hawkins 04-27-2009, 02:42 PM I thought about making a flag.... using a suction cup with a light weight flexible pole & a DA flag. Putting it on my rear window after I park....:D

Is this last meet area were you used to live?
I think parking lights and parking in fount of a store with out a lot of costumers would work?
princess 04-27-2009, 02:50 PM Yep.... I was born in Walnut Creek, raised in Concord & lived in Antioch most of my adult life. :D
You know those flags on whip poles they have for bicycles? I thought of putting one on a suction cup & adding the DRIVEACCORD on the flag. Hondas are way common & sometimes hard to find the ones we are looking for! The window is an area that's less apt to be damaged from such an item. Of course, it wouldn't go on till parked!
Mr.Coupe 05-01-2009, 08:25 AM Ok, We will try to have another Meet once again. Please let me know the time and dates that you guys is free. I will Google Earth the location.
Thank you,
P.S: Go Boston!
