The Altamont Cruisers cordially invite you to our monthly Cruise-in held on the last Saturday of the month, May thru September from 4pm to 7pm. By popular demand, we are moving the Cruise-In back to the popular Chardonnay Shopping Center on East Ave.
Many people have asked “what is a Cruise-In”? Obviously, everyone isn’t aware of what they are. Back in the days when we were new to cruising, and cars in general, we would all gather in some parking lot between laps up and down the “strip” and swap stories about ourselves and our cars, and some of them were even true, more or less. The cooler guys would pop their hoods to show off the new chrome valve covers that they had just bought from Grand Auto or Kragen to dress up their engines. Our Cruise-Ins are kind of like that, except now many of us bring our families.
We park our rides, pop some of our hoods and we wander around and look at all of the great cars that show up, and like the old days, it doesn’t cost anything. And, like the old days we swap stories about ourselves and our cars, and like the old days, some of them are more or less true; but like the stories that fishermen tell, they get embellished over time.
It is also a great place to come for dinner or something to drink; there are restaurants for every taste. There is plenty of room, and it is easy to find the Chardonnay Shopping Center at 4010 East Ave in Livermore and we will be there from 4pm until 7pm. Come, see for yourself what a Cruise-In is like.
