Moto GP logistics

So who's going down to Laguna? When? Are you going Thursday? Friday? Coming from the East Bay? The City? North Bay?
Let's see who's coming from where, and when, and maybe we can get a few small groups together. With all the law enforcement that's going to be on the prowl, it's probably safer to travel in numbers.
Who's staying where? Where are you going to be at the track? Where are good spots to meet throughout the weekend?
Put all your details here, and we can all make our plans accordingly.
**********************************************************************************************
My tentative plans:
May have a small group of 4 leaving Friday morning, from my place, 7-ish (not confirmed). Hoping that an early enough start will keep police, traffic, and squids to a minimum.
Taking 35 to 9 to 1 to 183 to 68. [moto]
Going to keep speeds as close to limit as possible... no need to stir the hornets
.
Depending on check in time, may just go to track first.
Will have coffee, bagels,etc at house for those coming with us.
There's plenty of room if you want to meet up the night before and crash here. Lots of garage space for bikes.
Or bring gear and bike ahead of time, then just drive over in the morning. Plenty of off street parking in back.
Just tossing out some ideas.

I'll be there on Sunday only. I still haven't decided how I'm getting there or where to park or where to hang out and everything else. It will be my first time at Laguna Seca.

Leaving Fri Morning from the cite-e. Let's meet up for sure. Sounds like a good plan.
Last year the bikes outnumbered the cars on the Monterey freeways in places, but there were a lot of johnny
on the freeways.
I saw whole groups getting pulled over.

The Lovely Wife, my Multistrada friend and I will be riding down sometime early Saturday from San Bruno. We are camping on Fox Hill. If there are plans for Dinner somewhere Saturday night I would be up for something, Last Year we went to Pacific Grove for dinner because Monterey was too crowded
At the very least we'll see you on Ducati Island.

Heading out Thu midday-ish and returning Mon. An out-of-town buddy will trailer in his moto and plan on some rides along the coast (weather permitting). First time for me, but probably my buddy's 10th-15th time.
Will be staying in one of the hotels in Seaside/Monterey ... if anybody needs an in on their free cooked-to-order breakfasts maybe something can be arranged.
