I love this event and am always excited to participate.
For those that are coming from out of town, I am 4 miles from the show. I have no issue opening my house to anyone that may need a place to crash for a night. I also have two open spots in the garage that are available. _________________ 59 Single Cab, 64 Type II, A3 GLX, A4 GLS, B5 GLS |

| I will be there again this year. Besides being a cool VW show to go to, it is centered around a fantastic cause. |

Spent a beautiful 75 degree day getting ready for the upcoming show. The grounds look great and the preperations for the show are coming along well. Last year the swap started to grow and hopefully this year it will be even bigger. Last years show had several unique air and water cooled cars in attendance and hopefully this year will be even more impressive. _________________ What's real and what's for sale? |

I've been told the caravan to the ranch is amazing, can't wait to experience it for myself...
Anyone else from the East Bay (I'm in Oakley) interested in a caravan to Niello? |

You are so right Ryan. Having the CHP shut down the streets and freeway so that 300+ VWs can cruise to the ranch, without interruption is awesome. |

OK lots of questions of when Registration will close.
Its will close at the first 400 or April 6th..
The CHP is locked down, the Bands locked down and many new Sponsors for this year as well.
Bring your kids there is a hole group that is putting a kids area together and it will be a blast for them. _________________ Nielloranchrun.com |

I've gone to almost every Niello Ranch Run, last year was the first time I drove my watercooled '96 Jetta as my Ghia was getting body/paint done by Skinner Classics VW Restorations at that time.
But, here are pics from the Niello Ranch Run 2009:
The line-up early Sunday morning at the Niello Volkswagen dealership for the CHP escort to the Ride To Walk Ranch in Lincoln (a 28-mile drive):
CHP giving specific instructions prior to the escort:
We're rollin'!
