Ein 100 Jahre Rennsport Abenteuer – 2016
A 100 Year Motor Sport Adventure – Celebrating BMW 1916 to 2016

In celebration of BMW’s 100 year anniversary, GGC is hosting a 4 day driving extravaganza that mixes a California back roads dream with BMW’s own Performance Driving experience in Thermal, CA.  The first two days of this event will include a spectacular drive along hidden back roads with other club members, departing from the San Francisco Bay Area.  Then enjoy two days of speed and fun driving the latest M cars at BMW’s Performance Driving School in Thermal, California.

About the Driving Tour: 
Similar to a Route 66 adventure, avoiding the interstate, we’ll comfortably caravan from Hollister to Thermal, CA with an overnight stop in Santa Barbara.   Each day’s drive will be approximately 6 hours with stops for photos, breaks, fuel and lunch.  Participants are individually responsible for lodging reservations and costs, as well as meal costs and any other expenses.  The host hotel for the tour is the Fess Parker Double Tree in Santa Barbara, CA for the evening of February 25.  Room fees range from$189 to $269 per night and we recommend booking early for this prime beach side location.   Call (800) 879-2929 to reserve a room.  This tour will limited to 20 cars, first come, first served.
