Konig, thanks for the cold weather warning. I am glad that no one was crazy enough to ignore your post!

...for those that couldn't make it...

Our "HellaFit" group got together this Sunday. There were 16 of us that showed up with Fits. 2 other members showed up in an MX-5, and an S2K.



My day started at 9am, meeting up with Konig_Feather and 07fit916 in Tracy. Our 3 Fit caravan ended up at "Dave and Buster's" in Milpitas, where we joined the rest of the group. We had a table set up for 20+ people. Here we got to meet, greet, and eat.



After lunch, we had an arcade video driving competition. The top four winners of "Daytona USA" were awarded Gift Cards.




Later we met back at the cars to do some photo shoots. At this time, we had a drawing for various prizes, including:
1-HellaFit license frames (2 winners)
2-HellaFit cooking aprons (2 winners)
3-HellaFit T-shirts (2 winners)
4-HellaFit wine glasses (2 winners)
5-HellaFit pint glasses (2 winners)



Here is the list of members that attended (as best I could remember):

1-DoYouFit?
2-Annievil
3-Macbuddy
4-Konig_Feather
5-TPColgett
6-Kira
7-RubyQQ1211
8-MVshutter
9-nodrogkam
10-Slimjimx701x
11-07fit916
12-T-Rex Fit
13-Jasper
14-OhNineFit
15-overheatedfit
16-kitkit201
17-lilcat
18-S2K Gordon

Before we left for our "rolling shots" photo shoot, I decided to take advantage of some "fun" shots in the parking lot.



The "Rolling Shots" section of our meet required that we take a short run up and down the freeway. Luckily, we didn't cause too much of a traffic hazard. I can't wait to see the rest of the shots that Wilson and Ayrick took!



We eventually called it a day after our 45 minute ride. Most of us went our separate ways, others partied on with a Sushi dinner destination, in Livermore(?). SlimJim and I drove on to Bruno's in Scotts Valley for an appointment with manxman, and a BBQ Rib dinner.



He needed our GD3's to take pictures of, and to jot down measurements for a new product that he is working on in conjunction with Zeta Products. Dave has the GE8 version already underway, he wants to design/engineer a similar product for the GD3.

I got home around 9pm. What a great way to spend 12 hours of my day!
