Big thank you to all who made it out today. With the West bound Bay Bridge being closed this weekend, we thought the San Mateo Bridge (92) would be crowded but surprisingly it was congestion free all the way up to SF.
The weather was amazing (aside from a bit of a breeze) and found a sweet spot at Crissy Field for our BBQ and photo op. Special thanks to mvshutter for the individual photo sessions of each fit. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished work.
There was an amazing show of patience for those of you who actually stood in line for hours to make it into the Wekfest car show! Hope you all had fun and please post your pix / videos...
While standing in line for Wekfest, there was a discussion about getting a caravan together in the Bay Area and head down to So. Cal for the annual Fit Meet coming up sometime this Spring. I will be in touch with Pandahh who was visiting from So. Cal with her b/f for the details. Once the date and location is confirmed, I will create a new thread so keep your ears and eyes open.
Again, thanks to all who joined us today and looking forward to seeing those of you who could not make it out today at future meets/run.
Hope to see you all again

Thanks for setting up this get-together. At the end of the day I was exhausted and my legs and feet are beat. Great seeing you all, and look forward to meeting again in the soon future. I didn't take too many pictures, but I'm sure others will be able to share.
The wait was long, but I think it'd be best to go late in the day. Was thinking to myself when all was over...could have took a drive and then go to the show. Anyway, too bad security were being pricks.

I am back in SoCal! Really enjoyed meeting all you bay area fits too bad I didn't get to say goodbye though... went back to my fit near the end of the show and I planned on waiting there until the other fitfreaks came out to their cars but everyone was already gone

Had an awesome time! Already looking forward to the meet in Socal and the Mt. Diablo drive! I wasn't too impressed with the photos I shot though. It's really hard to shoot in direct sunlight like we had. I'll be posting some of them over tonight and tomorrow.
Here's one....
If they aren't showing up or if you want to download an image, feel free to do so from my flickr. flickr.com/mvshutter90 Also, if anyone is looking for a print of an image, PM me. I picked up a new metallic paper that looks really good. lol

Hey all, hope you had as much fun as I did! Just a few shots below and the link to my album from the day:
I took the tail of the caravan on the way over to SF, and had some fun trying to keep up!
Despite the Bay bridge being closed we made great time! As usual other Fits on the road looked confused, but this guy even tagged along at the back for a few exits
The weather was GORGEOUS, and we could not have asked for a better venue to park and BBQ. We could see the Golden Gate, the palace of Fine Arts AND Alcatraz!
While mvshutter setup his gear and got some gorgeous shots of our fits against the SF backdrop, konig_feather fired up the grill and the rest of us wondered around checking out each others rides especially Pandahh's BRIGHTLY accented GE8
After everyone's ride got a spot in mvshutter's "studio" and we had thoroughly snacked on all the various eats, we took a stroll on down to get in line for the actual car show. Wandering through the parking lot was like a pre show in itself though! The line was FOREVER, and after nearly 4 hours, freezing winds, and a debacle with security which cost us konig_feather's company we Finally made it inside. We even found a couple of Fits :
There was lots to see, and if you want to check out the rest of my shots from the day and my favorites from the show feel free to browse my album: Wek Fest 2-2012 pictures by TPColgett - Photobucket
A big THANK YOU again goes out to konig_feather for putting together another great meet up, also to mvshutter for taken some pro shots, and especially to Pandahh for being an ambassador to our SoCal Fit brethren >_< I hope everyone had as much fun as I did and I look forward to the next time we all meet up!
