Cars & Coffee – January 2026


By: The Roving Reporter, Don

January 11, 2026: It sems like there are alot of shows and cruises starting in May. The Oro Dam Cruisers show in Oroville I believe the 16th and 17th of May. I spoke with Rob at Humpty Dumptys and he says that he will have the cruise-in nights starting in May also. The Auburn Cruise night will start in May. I haven’t heard of anything in April yet, but I will let you know. There is still Cars and Coffee on Saturdays, of course. It has been a little chilly in the morning and we have had a lot of rain, but we head to the donut shop to warm and coffee up. Once the sun comes up it is not to chilly. Happy New Year! Lets get our Hot Rods ready for the new year!


January 31, 2026: It was a good morning at cars and coffee. More drivers are coming out now that the weather is a little warmer. A good day for Corvettes, I counted eight of all generations and they were all very well maintained.I recieved an e-mail from Marty  on Sat. that Big A’s will be reopening under new ownership! Good News. Maybe another cruise night??? I will continue to monitor that situation. Keep the wheel side down.
