taking a run down from Wash/Ore border to Cal

[beandip]

I am contemplating a run down I-5 from Portland Ore to the Riverside Calif. area in May. If this comes off , I will be solo . This would be the longest run so far in my Z . What I am wondering is who in the club lives along the way , with in about 50 miles or so or I-5. Just in case the old girl has a hiccup, I would like to know if I have a fail safe place to tow too. My Hagerty Ins. will cover 100 miles on a flat bed. I can then figure out what is what and go from there . I do have access to a flat bed trailer if needed . A big hassle but if necessary this is what I would do and abort and bring her home. I really don't anticipate any trouble since I have gone through almost everything on the car. Still she is still 34 yrs old. Just trying to get my ducks all in a row. If I was traveling with a group it would be some what different. But being on my own it would be great to know I have a safe place to take the ole girl if there is a problem. Gary

You know where I'm at, and how to reach me, Gary. But it's going to be a bad trip if you don't make it any farther than this before it breaks...

Thanks guys for the info. Arne that would be a major bummer if I only made it to your brewery. My hopes were to have a info on a place in Sacramento , Bakersfield, Taft . Redding Like that . It was just a thought. I don't contemplate any trouble . Usually when we drive down , we stop somewhere after Sacramento . The next day it is a good shot to the LA area and Riverside. This may not come off . It is just something I would really like to do to visit my elderly Sister. And her family down there. Gary

I'm in Santa Cruz, CA 78mi east of I-5 from Los Banos, but you'd be better off taking it to the Z-Store in San Jose, CA 95112 @ 81mi if you run into trouble, depending on what's wrong of course. I do have a few spare parts in, on and around my 73.
