I agree. Let's do that! Jberger has a great setup and with a little luck we'll have one of those balmy September evenings in Pacifica. (Although with Colin's luck it will be in the low 50s with a 25 knot sea breeze). The challenge will be to enjoy the beer and not to drop a few engines just for the hell of it.
I promise to wear my "sunday go to meetin" clothes. Ha.

Parking a bunch of busses in NB sounds a little impractical.
Good heavens, Man! It most certainly would be!

However, the location is not actually in North Beach, San Francisco, it is only named North Beach Pizza.
D'oh I know where that is, I just skimmed the post and saw NB and had this parking horror appear in my mind.

Pacifica is an easy drive from DC!

wow..i had never heard of those LLoyd vehicles...pretty interesting though.

The 2 cylinder-second-act-engines achieved 10 HPS with a capacity of 293 ccms. A maximum speed of 70 km/hs was attainable with it.

Lloyd 500 - The first german Minivan


Two motor-variations: until 1955 of the 2-cylinders - second-act-motor with 13 HPS, after it in the LT 600 the 2-cylinder-four-stroke-motor with 19 HPS.

As far as I know... Who is planning to attend? Send me a pm and I will send my address. I would suggest an earlier start and Colin will arrive when he is able. Bring what you would like to consume...food\beverage.
