Anyone interested in going down to go down to the COOL Monterey to cruise with M.P.A.S. (Monterey Peninsula Aircooled Society) 7th Annual Vintage VW Cruise.
Come and join in on one of the most beautiful coastline cruises in the world. The cruise will take you along Fishermans's Wharf, Cannery Row, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Lover's Point, Asilomar.
We have added the beautiful Pebble Beach 17 Mile Drive to our route. We will also be having our potluck BBQ inside Pebble Beach! where you can display your car, and meet the people behind them.
So polish up your Vintage Volkswagen and enjoy a great day!
Here is a quote from Mathias of MPAS on their Yahoo Groups:

Hey everyone, wanted to let you know that we will be including in the cruise this year the beautiful 17 Mile Drive! Not only do we get free access to cruise Pebble Beach,
we also get to use the picnic area at Indian Village, which is right on the ocean, for free!
We will be able to fit about 30 cars in this area, if we have more show up we will have a back-up plan. Look forward to seeing you all there.

Do they still charge a fee for the 17 mile route?
