Yep, but it might be easier for you (and any other south bay people) to catch up at the 133/ Santa Nella stop

Good. I recommend either the Tracy Rest stop or Rotten Robbies stop for most bay area people. If you are coming from the north bay see this thread on the start of the Caravan: https://www.rx7club.com/west-rx-7-forum-193/sevenstock-10-norcal7-rotary-caravan-north-bay-santa-rosa-edition-690057/
