Hey Vince!
I'd like to start the discussion for meeting on this Saturday's Arrowhead cruise by suggesting;
SOC'ers coming from the Valley or north LA area can take the Foothill Fwy (210 Fwy) east to the I-15 junction then north to hook up with the caravan at the Lytle Creek/Sierra Ave exit (there's a gas station, Jack-in-the-Box and a few other restaurants at the north side of that exit). Lytle Creek/Sierra Ave is the exit just before Glen Helen Regional Park (at the 215/I-15 junction).
We should be able to gather the entire group (pit stop) at that location and then head up the I-15 to 215 to the 138 exit (Wrightwood/Silverwood/Arrowhead).
Estimated travel time from South Bay/Redondo/Valley area via 210 or 91 Fwys to I-15/Lytle Creek-Sierra Ave exit approximately 1.5-1.75 hrs.
Estimated travel time from OC area via 91 Fwy to I-15/Lytle Creek-Sierra Ave exit approximately 1.25 hrs.
In light of these estimated travel times, a suggestion for meeting time at Lytle Creek 09:30-10:00 (for those unable to get up at the crack of dawn). Those in close proximity to others in their area can make arrangements to caravan to the Lytle Creek/Sierra Ave meeting spot.
I will send an e-mail with my cell phone number to those who will be joining this Arrowhead group!
That's my 2-cents. Looking forward to seeing other SOC'ers.
the lytle creek exit sounds good to me....i will be there if this is what everyone wants ....im along for the ride.....Roger
Jim,
I'm surprised. This group is pretty vocal, maybe it's just the three of us going, for sure. I thought they would have all chimed in over the weekend. Oh well, looking forward to seeing you and Ginny again. I'll try to hook up with MR356 on Saturday morning.
Curt
Oh, I see Roger just posted. See you too, Roger.

Jennifer, are you guys in?

Hi Curt!
Hope this message finds you in good health & spirits!
Driving Speedsters on winding roads, breathing fresh mountain air and lunch by the lake sounds like a recipe for a good day!
We're looking forward to seeing our SOC friends this weekend - we'll see you and Jo Ann Saturday morning!
Peace - Out!

Hey Roger!
If you're coming from Lancaster, no sense in back-tracking to Lytle Creek. You could probably just take Palmdale/Pearblossom (Hwy 138) to the I-15 and wait for us on the east-side of the highway overpass (in direction of Silverwood Lake).
I'm guessing the group should be approaching that exit at about 10:30 A.M.
Hope you're staying cool in that desert heat, my brutha - see ya Saturday morning!
Here's a teaser from the Carbon Canyon cruise a couple of weeks ago!
P.S. - I'll e-mail you my cell number!

Hey Joe L!
Let me know via e-mail if you'd be interested in hooking up Saturday morning for the jaunt to the Lytle Creek rendevous with the rest of the gang.
We will be starting from the University/405 on-ramp (Irvine) and jumping on the 241 Toll road to 91 fwy, etc.
Later!

Wish I could make this run with all of you but alas, I will be out of the country at that time! Looking forward to seeing pics and video of all your cool cars on the drive.
hey jim that sounds good to me but is this the route that everyone wants to take? let me know cause i will meet you guys any where....vince does this sound good?
also jim go ahead and e-mail me your #.......Roger
...Roger that, Roger!
you guys need to keep talking and find pick-up spots along the 91 and points east, I only see posts for a few of you....
so far the only thing I'm sure of is Starbucks 8:00 saturday morning

hey jim i was thinking about it and ,dont we want to take the scenic route up the 18 instead of 138? so i would still have to meet up with you guys at lytle creekso we could take 215 to 18 to the lake....does that sound good,let me know........Roger
Hey Rog, et all;
Staying on the 138 towards Silverwood Lake and eventually Arrowhead Lake would allow us to avoid going through scenic San Bernardino and the knuckleheads who insist on racing up Hwy 18 (Rim of the World Hwy). Hwy 138 joins Hwy 18 (Crestline area) for 2-3 miles before the 189 junction which will take us right into Arrowhead.
This route should allow us to enjoy the scenery at a leisurely (or speed appropriate pace) without some maroons tail-gating us all the way up the mountain!
Looking forward to a day of Speedster cruising!

Bad news.....my great aunt passed away last week, and we have been waiting to hear when the services will be, unfortunately they are Saturday at 3 pm in the Valley. Sorry to say we can't join you. I am so bummed, I was really looking forward to this run. It just shows that best laid plans don't always pan out. I hope you all have a great time.
OK, Jim. Meet you at the University/405Fwy on-ramp. Does 8:00 work?
Hi Joe!
We'll be in the shopping center parking lot on University/Michelson (IHOP, Mobile Gas, Ralph's, Irvine Vet) at 8:00. Looking forward to getting together for this cruise. Later!

...for those of you still on the fence about the Lake Arrowhead cruise, don't let the cool temps of the early morning marine layer discourage you.
Weather reports show Arrowhead/Big Bear with clear skys (?) and temps 75-80 degrees.
Like Hans and Franz used to say (with Schwarzenegger accent)- "Listen to me NOW, und beleaf me LATUH!

Does this sound about right........

Hey Vince!
If the group that has committed to this cruise remains the same 5 cars by tomorow night (Friday), then Joe L and I will meet you along the 91 Fwy (instead of Lytle Creek). I suggest the Green River exit off the 91 (in Anaheim). It's the exit after Gypsum Canyon. There is a Chevron station on the north side of the fwy (Turn left after exiting on Green River). We should be at that Green River rendevous around 8:45-9:00 a.m.. That should be close to the time you and Curt get to that point.
Then we will proceed up 91/15/138 Wrightwood/Silverwood exit where we will hook up with Roger.
Let me know if this sounds OK!

Hey Rob, My SB Brutha!
Dude you rule with that front plate! Bummer about missing the Arrowhead cruise. I guess I'll have to tip a Corona (or 5) for you as well.
After tipping Corona's for Speedster "D", FlowerGirl, and now you, I'll be pretty f****d up by noon! I guess my wife will have to drive us back down the mountain - oh GREAT, now I'll have to bring Quaaludes too!
I'll be sure to post pics and video clips to torment you!!
PEACE - OUT!!

Hey Dan!
That's great! Now the rest of us will look like the red-headed step children next to your most excellent white-walled beauty!
Unless there are major changes by tomorrow night, Joe L. and I are going to rendevous with Vince & Curt at the Green River exit (Chevron station) around 9:00-9:15 a.m. - then join up with Roger at the I-5/138 junction (Wrightwood/Silverwood exit)
Unless you just want to join us at Green River (I realize you'd be back-tracking) give us a location and time that you'd prefer.
I will PM my cell number to you.
Glad you're making the trip - it'll beat staying at home working on the honey-do list!

Green River exit would be the best on/off location for meeting everyone. I'll email my cell to you as well.
