Yo dawg I heard you like go pros...here's another one so you can go pro while you go pro.

Edit: Mo, are we going through tolls? If so, have you thought about the best way to get 30 something cars through the tolls?
The only toll we go through is the bay bridge toll and our cruise leader wheels4fury is a master on taking us through that. We will make sure we all go through the same lane and will gather after the toll is paid, on the side shoulder before the bridge.

Once we are all through the toll all cars go on the bridge at the same time, in one lane. If needed, one car can stop the traffic before and after the toll and let all s2000 go through.

Previously, other drivers just stop and let us through as they are all too excited to see our cars. Just make sure we all stay in ONE lane when we leave Exit 31.

If we really have 30 something cars, it might be easier to just get everyone to reorganize under the kent narrows bridge, though I forgot what exit # that is. And it'd make a good spot to take photos of the cars all lined up.

I was thinking we can collect toll from all the cars so that the person in the front, which will be either you or me, we can pay the toll and rest of the cars can just drive through without stopping the traffic and we all can gather again on the side right after the toll. Just like we did last time.

Apparently its exit 41 lol. When you go off the exit you'll come to a stop sign where you'll turn left then make another left to go under the bridge where theres a large parking lot.

I dunno if we'd have enough room to accomodate 30 cars right after the toll though, we only had like 10 last time.

We had 27 cars when we went to H2O, but if you think we wont loose any car while trying to get there, im ok with that. I think thats where the radios will come in handy

This is do-able however the boom will need to come down in front of each car regardless if the money is paid by the first car or each individual vehicle. Edit: this is what I've experienced in the past...not sure if its different at this toll.

4 wheels of fury's idea of setting up a regroup spot might be better if that spot is after the toll plaza. That way we can split up and each go to the shortest line at the toll plaza as to not obstruct traffic, go through and regroup until all cars are accounted for then proceed onwards and get back on the freeway.

Just throwing out ideas here...

AGREED, if the exit is after the toll and before the bay bridge

That is pretty much my reasoning. That and we'd get to park under this.

So unless I'm looking at this wrong or you guys are taking a different route...after the second pick up point at exit 31, the next exit is 32 and that's the last exit before the bay bridge toll.

Exit is circled in green and the toll is in red:

2 way FRS Radios with head set are a must ...... and an E-Z Pass makes toll paying a breeze ....
