Car is ready to go and just entering Colorado on its journey from MN to CA.







I arrived into San Francisco last night and Nick and I drove up to Sonoma for dinner with BigE and his wife. Next up is a stop are a few of the local NorCal breweries (Russian River & Lagunitas) and then a visit to Sharkwerks this afternoon.

Aside from dealing with calls from work since 4:30am, this has been a great start to the trip!

Woke up at Eric's place and enjoyed some great pumpkin bread this morning before Nick and I decided to tour the local NorCal breweries. We stopped at Russian River Brewery first and had a bite to eat.







Next stop was Lagunitas for some more beer.







and bought this sweet butterfly bottle opener:



After trying (not very hard) to sober up, Nick and I drove down to Fremont to visit Sharky and crew at Sharkwerks.







Sharky's personal project car:






Alex and the gang were nice enough to hook me up with some stickers for the race car and a Sharkwerks shirt. I'll definitely be wearing it with pride this weekend!

That's all for now.

Identical posts in two threads about the same thing? Alex, we all know you're super exited (and so are we to see your progress and results!) but isn't one thread enough?

Thanks for sharing though!

FYI, Alex, your images aren't showing in Google Chrome. Something to do with Amazon and I'm afraid I have to agree with Strebo...one thread really is enough.

Thanks again for sticking around and showing Nick and I around. I hope you guys can make it down on Monday. I'm putting the Sharkwerks stickers on the car first thing tomorrow.
