== Ride-sharing / Transit ==
 
 
The landfall location is a 5 mile drive from SFO.  If you have a ride / need a ride / want to share a taxi, etc., add yourself here.
 
 
Also, since there are multiple nearby transit locations, please comment on which ones would be easiest for you (SFO, last BART stop before SFO, Caltrain, etc.) -- that may make ride-sharing easier.
 
 
[[User:Peter Kaminski|Pete]] - driving from San Francisco or San Mateo, may be able to offer ride from one nearby transit location (SFO, Millbrae Caltrain, South City BART, etc.)  Can't stay long, have to drive to SF Zoo by 5pm, could drop you back off at transit on the way.  Email kaminski@istori.com to coordinate.
 
 
[http://www.blueyez.org/ Derek] - Driving from San Jose airport, plan to stop by on my way up to downtown San Francisco.  Email me at blueyez@blueyez.org if you want to hitch a ride.
