So @RedWuken was asking about maybe putting together a small meet-up at the Cars & Coffee (They now happen at the Oasis) for the Austin area this coming Sunday (9/8/2013) -- it opens at 10am and goes until 1pm.

Who's interested?

C&C info is here: Cars and Coffee™ Austin

I just went to the Cars and Coffee in Leander this past Sunday. I'm not sure if it's the same event this coming Sunday, but I have heard that they have been having car shows out at Oasis on Sunday's as well. I'd totally be up for going, but I will be out of town the Sunday and probably at a Lion vs Vikings game.

 

[RedWuken]

Yeah I'm almost positive I'm going. Need to figure out a route to take to get there. Still trying to burn off my high octane fuel and switch in some 87 to see if the top speed increases.

Don't worry about taking a special route because of the speed. The road is 65 MPH -- however, 620 is so freaking busy and the drivers are so retarded it rarely gets over 55 MPH.

I don't like cars or coffee...

I think I could be down for a little trip out to Oasis.

I will be there with or without the Grom!

John Eagle is the guy with the Cars and Coffee license methinks. He pulled from the Leander area for some reason last summer so that's just the Leander Car Show. So Leader show is more classics while C&C at the Oasis is more modern and exotic. I just sent them a message on facebook to ask if our Groms will be welcome.

Follow em both on the face space:

I may finally be putting the engine in my CRX Sunday and idk if my engine guy wants to start bright and early or just after lunch. I'll keep y'all posted.

Thanks for the links!

Nice!

You better tell him you have other plans... and if he's a gearhead he should want to come along!

+1 to that! What kind of mechanic are you working with?!? If he doesn't want to go to a car show, might want to reconsider who you have spin your bolts...

Going to take my Grom to the Donut Derelicts this Saturday in Surf City (So Cal). It's a gas. :wink:

I messaged C&C via Facebook asking if we would be welcome. Here's the response:
Ah but of course! Bikes are also welcome and encouraged! We will have a section of about five spots blocked off / saved for y'all ! Awesome to hear y'all are coming and thank you!

I'm trying to get my coworker(the guy who first told me about the Grom) to ride with me up there on his CBR250R. I can GoPro the ride to finally do that comparison video.

And here's my engine guy's page if you want to look at some silly Hondas. His videos have the most epic music.

You planning on going? I'm up early today so I can get some stuff done and head out there, shooting to be there around 10am.

How did it go?

 

[dascrow]

It was a huge turn out. I had the family, so we cruised the Focus ST out there. Only one Grom though Lot's of positive comments on the Grom from everyone that came up to check it out!

 

[4Nines]

The Grom turnout will be a lot better next month

 

[El Chorizo]

Yah, had a guy with like 4 CBR 1000's come up and really loved the Grom, he even took it for a little spin in the parking lot. A couple of Ducati guys loved it as well
