BCR 03.13.2021
BCR March is SOLD OUT.
March’s rally starts in Terra Linda and heads out to Sonoma via Point Reyes, a 70+ mile run from redwoods to vineyards, snaking through farmland and rural towns. Once again, there’ll be two route options: the main “Sports Route,” and for the adventurous, the “Rugged Route,” which forsakes the last stretch of backroads for a bumpy-but-beautiful mountain pass.
Before the rally, we’ll meet pre-9am at our start point (masks/face-coverings required, please). At 9am, we’ll take off in 3 groups (HARE, TORTOISE, and SNAIL groups) 5 minutes apart. We’ll be done around noon, and you’ll be free to grab some lunch at one of Sonoma’s great restaurants, do some wine-tasting, or just head on home.
Old and/or interesting cars (& people) of all makes and models are welcome. Emergency roadside assistance provided by the good folks at Hagerty Drivers Club. Rally decals can be bought in advance from the BCR shop.
Additional info:
This event is free. It is also “mostly vintage” and “brand-agnostic.” It’s not Euro-only, Vintage-only, or Anything-only. That said, please keep modern car entries to “enthusiast” models and other “interesting“ vehicles- sports cars, low production runs, unusual/exotic marques, things like that.
Facial coverings are required when outside of your car. Please give the surrounding shops your business and tip well- let’s not be freeloaders.
Don’t make us say “no burnouts.” You’re better than that, right?
The drive begins staging at 9am and will take 2-3hrs tops. Feel free to drive at a speed comfortable to you, and always yield to quicker vehicles. We call this a “spirited drive” - responsible people enjoying their cars without endangering the lives and sanity of others.
A link to download turn-by-turn directions will be sent a week before the drive. Read them. Learn them. Know them. Live them. Don’t rely on the person in front of you to know where they’re going- they don’t.
Roads on this route are pretty good; usual bumps and such, nothing usual.
Gas up prior to arriving at the starting location; it’s a long drive with limited gas stations.
Cell reception unavailable in some areas.
Be courteous to business owners, employees, homeowners, ranchers, cyclists, pedestrians, pets and livestock you encounter- let’s keep BCR welcome in the area.
