We will be leaving no later than 5

and Manteca (In-N-Out) for Sac/Manteca and north..

This group will get a phone call while we're eastbound on 120 and meet us (on the roll) as we turn onto southbound 99.
This should be around 5:30.

Place: In & Out Burger

Meet up Time: Be there in enough time to be fueled up and ready to leave by 5:30
Convoy Departure Time: around 5:30

NorCal/CenCal Groups

To recap:

Quote:

Pleasanton to Bako (fuel up) is 260 miles (EB 580 - EB 205 - NB 5 - EB 120 - SB 99) picking up Sac, Modesto/Merced and Fresno (break) and Bako (fuel) (4 1/2 hrs to be safe).

Bako to Cabazon is 205 miles ( EB 58 - SB 395 - SB 15/215 - EB 10) meeting with SoCal (4 hrs/safe)

30-45 minute break (fuel up)

Cabazon to Quartzsite AZ (93 octane) is 160 miles (EB 10) 80 MPH is 2 hrs (cause there's nothing out here.....

)

Quartzsite AZ (fuel up) to Chandler (Courtyard/Marriot) is 150 miles (EB 10) 80 MPH is 2 hrs but figure in traffic in Phoenix, so 2.5 hrs

13ish hours to be there by 6-6:30 puts us leaving Pleasanton by no later than 5AM. So Depart at 5AM, hook up with Sac in Manteca at 5:30; hit Fresno around 7:15-7:30, leave Bako around 9:30, Cabazon around 1:30, leave by 2 to make Quartzsite by 4 and then onto Chandler by 6-6:30 depending on traffic.

So it looks like we will get to the Casino around 1-1:30. I way over estimated the time from Pleasanton to Cabazon but we'll see how long the gas/breaks/meets take.

The Bay Area group will meet at Hacienda Crossing which is north of 580 off of Hacienda Dr. in Dublin. There's a Starbucks and Shell station for those who need to top off.

We will be leaving no later than 5

and Manteca (In-N-Out) for Sac/Manteca and north..

Thanks bro! Also I don't see any gas stations in the picture where we're stopping (In & Out Burger). Can someone confirm if there is a Chevron close to that area and is open at 0530 hrs? I don't pay for gas in cash, I use credit card so it would be nice to have a Major gas station(s) close to the area in which we stop.

Thanks for all your help and time in making this a smooth trip. I really appreciate everything you guys are doing for us.

It's true, we need to drop off our cat with Eme's parents in Bako, so it's looking like we'll be heading down there Wed night and taking off with the Bako crew in the morning. Not in stone yet, we may still find a way to leave with the Fresno family, but for now you can plan on us in Bakersfield.

Sketti- There's a 24 hr Chevron on Yosemite Ave about a block west of the In n Out.
