Great meeting you all, good fun. We need to organize a Marsh Creek drive and breakfast or brunch somewhere.

Some cellphone pics

Great meeting y'all! Couple cameo apperances by some passer-by Ms as well

Here are some pics from today (full size on the imgur link below). Send me a message if you want the unedited RAW files or as-shot JPEGs.

Awesome pictures. What camera were you using?

AYYY F80 · 05-02-2021, 04:46 PM

Great meeting everyone as well! Let's do this again soon. Love how the pics turned out.

Camera: Sony A6300
Lens: Sony F4.5-6.3 / 55-210mm

Shot RAW and made some adjustments in post-processing. Due to the hard light I made minor adjustments to exposure, pulled out shadows & highlights, jacked up the contrast, and added a touch of grain reduction to smooth everything out

Awesome meeting you guys this morning, the trip out to WC was well worth it 😎 Thanks again to RugbyBro for organizing. Also, killer pics! My car is in dire need of a polish and coating, and yet you managed to make it look wet in the pics 👏🏻👏🏻

Also, these meetups are dangerous. My modding budget just went up. THANKS, fellas.

We'll do it again! Maybe it can be an informal first Sunday type thing - lots of us out here

Here's an idea, Marsh Creek through to Livermore for brunch then easy access to highways to head home after

Sounds good to me

When is the next one? I like the idea of first Sunday of each month as well.

Let's say June 6th? May try to set up a casual cruise on or before then also

Anmolbains23 · 05-04-2021, 10:32 PM

Is this strictly F80 or open to other BMW's?

I personally love seeing all BMWs and we had some random people in other BMWs just stop by and hangout for a minute! I probably won't expressly post in other forums tho just to keep the meet ups primarily F8X focused for now and because there are a ton of M owners in the area so I don't think there is a parking lot that will fit us all haha

But that's not to say that you shouldn't show up if you don't have or want to bring F8X!

Hahaha I get you! Well if I'm free for the next one I'd love to stop by and check out the cars
