I thought I might start a thread and see who all from the south end would like to meet up on the morning of the Meeting somewhere and cruise in together, maybe at the kent station or something? any ideas?

Ok so here is the info's and arial photos for everyone, I'll include addresses for those of us with NAVI, Also if you have FRS/GMRS Radios be sure to bring them channel 5 (no sub channel)


Address for Parking in Seattle:
2288 6th Ave, Seattle, Washington

Easy directions. From 1-5 N take the Seneca st. exit. right off the exit (youll be on 6th) , follow that until the Impark parking lot on the left on 6th and Bell.






Address for park in shoreline:
2101 Northwest 190th Street, Shoreline, Washington

Heading North on I-5, take the N. 175th exit (exit #176?)
Take a Left and head West on 175th.
At Aurora Ave N, take a Right.
At 185th, take a Left.
Follow that road (it becomes Richmond Beach Rd.) for couple miles; it winds a bit.
At 20th Ave NW, take a Left.
Follow for a few blocks to the entrance of the beach. You can't miss it. The road will then wind down a steep hill. At the bottom is the parking lot we plan to meet at.

 

yeah i like the sound of that.....

 

I would, but I'm goin right from work in Seattle.

 

well wait in seattle and we will meet up wit u from there?

 

yea, we could meet somewhere in seattle, maybe at pyramid alehouse or something, where in seattle you comming from?

 

I'm down.

 

I work on 6th and Bell st.

Straight shot from Seneca st. exit. I'll check the time I'm getting off that day and post back up.

 

ok, i'll check google maps and see if there are any free parking lots with enough quick parking for a few people in that area

 

So I'm thinking, maybe the Northgate Park&Ride / transit center, its a little north of seattle off I5 we could meet you there Nick?

 

cliff your balliztik awsome bro!!! good to know your coming out...!

Seattle Spot works for me....

 

sounds goo to me guys how bout at 11am?

 

I have no idea at all where I am going so somebody has to let me follow........I also have no navi right now as car is gutted down to two seats,no speakers,no amps,no subs,no nothing......and not expecting to have it all back in by then either.......at best the amp and subs temporarily but that is about it.

 

I grew up in Edmonds, haven't been to Richmond beach in years, but i'm pretty sure i know just how to get there.

 

well i think us southend people should meet up at the tacoma meet and greet spot and head from there

 

yeah we will have to do that brad.......as i have no idea where Edmunds is either.......lol


well I gotta get my butt back to work.......headed to Bremerton to do a night audit of the stores energy use.......wont get home till after midnight and gotta get back to work again at 6am.........fun fun.

 

actually on second thought. My work parking lot is fine to meet up at.

Bell St & 6th Ave, Seattle, King, Washington 98121

plug that into google maps. Its a pay to park but its my work lot and youll be fine if you're around your car. Has plenty of room on saturdays. It's perfectly ok to park there for a half hour or so and head out from there.

I'm off at about 10:15am you guys can pick any time after that to meet up there with me.

easy directions. From 1-5 (you'll all be going north) take the Seneca st. exit. right off the exit (youll be on 6th) , follow that until the Impark parking lot on the left on 6th and Bell.

Let me know if that works for you guys.

EDIT: This will give us more time to cruise

 

Directions to Richmond Beach Park:

Heading North on I-5, take the N. 175th exit (exit #176?)
Take a Left and head West on 175th.
At Aurora Ave N, take a Right.
At 185th, take a Left.
Follow that road (it becomes Richmond Beach Rd.) for couple miles; it winds a bit.
At 20th Ave NW, take a Left.
Follow for a few blocks to the entrance of the beach. You can't miss it. The road will then wind down a steep hill. At the bottom is the parking lot we plan to meet at.

 

Mike: No worries, I appreciate the assistance

Nick: That sounds good, if a few of us can park there that will work, and since the others are going to meet in tacoma I'll just meet up with them at your work

Angie: Thanks for the directions!!

 

I think I can find my way with directions like that pretty easy.......sounds like a plan......as it gets closer I will arrainge the meet at Tacoma MG spot for the southenders to meet up in seattle at Nicks work then head up from there......smaller groups tend to be easier to get around when you are following directions.

 

We might also want to follow suit with the usual FRS radios that we so often use in our convoy's

Also if no one else would like to step up for this, I have a new Nav unit and could Lead the way from seattle....but be warned i've never led a convoy before, only 1 or 2 cars
