BCR 09.10.2022
This month: we hit west Sonoma County for eighty miles of all the stuff Northern California backroads are famous for; vineyards (naturally), farmland, redwoods, rivers, and miles of prime coastal road. The scenery is world class, but make no mistake- this is good driving for people who dig good driving.
Before the rally, we’ll meet at 8am at an undisclosed start point in Santa Rosa for a little pre-rally social hour. At 9am, we’ll take off in 3 groups (HARE, TORTOISE, and SNAIL groups) 5 minutes apart; we’ll be done around noon, touching down in Healdsburg.
Registration instructions below. Old and/or interesting cars (& people) of most makes and models are welcome; see exceptions listed under “How to Register.” Emergency roadside assistance provided by Hagerty Drivers Club.
This event is completely SOLD OUT.
Additional info:

Co-drivers welcome: fill out appropriate section of registration form.
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?
BCR has a strict “No Suitcasing” policy: this is a drive, not a marketing opportunity. Leave your logos, leaflets, FOR SALE signs, stickers, business cards, flyers, and branded trinkets at home.
The drive begins staging at 9am and will take about 2.5 hrs. Drive at a speed comfortable to you, taking into consideration weather and road conditions, always yield to quicker vehicles, and never pass on a double yellow line.
A link to download turn-by-turn directions will be sent the week of 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 are pretty smooth the whole way; usual bumps and such, nothing major.
Gas up prior to arriving at the starting location; limited gas stations along the route.
Cell reception unavailable in some areas.
People live and work in these areas we drive through. Be courteous to business owners, employees, homeowners, ranchers, cyclists, pedestrians, pets and livestock you encounter- let’s keep BCR welcome in the area.
