THE BRISBANE MARINA BRITISH CAR DAY SUNDAY b" SEPTEMBER 13th, 2009 And now for something completely different..... Join your British car friends, once again, for a smashing day at the Brisbane Marina. Over 200 quirky, classic, and lovable British cars will once again gather in the Bay Area for our 32nd Annual British Car Meet. We have been doing this on the same weekend for over 30 years and just because the times, they are a-changin,b webll be a-changinb with the times. After careful consideration of the present economy, fading sponsorship, and smaller attendance, combined with the decentralization of the hobby in general and a number of new competing Northern California events, we have decided to try something that is quite like the first British Car Meet held in Palo Alto in 1978. A one day FREE event .......... Thatbs right, FREE. b" Sunday b" Parking Lot Show & Tell: This will be a simple, no fees, no frills, no awards gathering of British and Arcane car enthusiasts. We have made arrangements with the good folks at the Sierra Point Yacht Club to set up in the parking lots around the club. As last year, the Yacht Club will be offering an optional Sunday brunch and coffee. It all starts Sunday morning at 8:30AM. b" Sunday b" Bay To Breakers Tour To Cameronbs Pub: These tours take you over some of the most beautiful roads in Northern California. There will be two optional routes; one direct yet still quite scenic, and another with a backroad component. We will be starting tour cars from a staging area by the entrance. Cars will leave in small groups between about 8:30 and 10:00AM - The shorter route should take less than an hour and the backroads route will take a bit more than an hour... Cars should start gathering at Cameron's at about 10:00AM, a combination of early tour drivers and people who live near the coast. Directions To The Brisbane Marina: The Brisbane Marina is located on Sierra Point, just east of the Bayshore Freeway (101) in Brisbane, between San Francisco and the SF Airport/Highway 380. Just take the Brisbane/Sierra Point Exit and follow the signs to the Marina. Cameron's Pub is located at 1410 S. Cabrillo Hwy in Half Moon Bay. It is just south of downtown on the west side of the coast highway.

Message-ID: <18368943.1240339057461.JavaMail.root@mswamui-valley.atl.sa.earthlink.net> Forwarded from the T-series list: California and San Francisco Bay Area T series owners should get a laugh out of the letter, paraphrased below that I recently got from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District: "Dear Vehicle Owner: Since the registration on your model year 1951 vehicle is expiring soon, please consider an alternative to driving this vehicle. You can receive $650 for your 1987 or older car, van or pickup truck from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District and help reduce air pollution. The District's Buy Back Program buys and then scraps 1987 and older vehicles. These older vehicles have less efficient emission control equipment and therefore produce much more air pollution than newer vehicles. This program is completely voluntary. If your car is a classic car or otherwise valuable to you, please disregard this letter." Needless to say I will be disregarding the letter. No wait, I think I'll write the BAQMD and ask why they are wasting my taxpayer funds to mail these letters out to owners of cars as old as mine. Any car of this age still registered and in operation is already a classic and more valuable to the owner than the $650 offered. Still I wonder if the "program is completely voluntary" provision will someday be rescinded? Time to write your legislators and express your opinions now? John F.
