Okay, Karon and I have a prelim plan for a Temecula run on Saturday June 4th...If anyone is interested, we can nail down the details, but here is what we have so far;
{1} Meeting place: Irvine Spectrum (Parking lot in front of Dave&Busters restaurant)
{2} Depart Irvine Spectrum onto 5 Fwy (south) to San Juan Capistrano (5 fwy and Ortega Highway, arrive for fuel and join up with Speedsters from San Diego area.
{3} Depart San Juan Capistrano to Lake Elsinore via the Ortega Highway, stop for fuel at the 15 fwy.
{4} Depart Lake Elsinore to Temecula via 15 fwy
{5} Arrive at Temecula, final stop at Maurice Car'rie Winery for casual food and drink, socializing and possible small group wine tasting at the various wineries in the area.
This entire run is approximately 70 miles one-way from Irvine to Temecula with estimated drive time of about 2 hours (per mapquest) So we figure with fuel stops a good time frame would be about a 3 hour tour (heard that somewhere before...something to do with Gilligan I think...anyway)
So what do ya think???? If we meet 'round 9am we would arrive thirsty and hungry around noon.
As mentioned the balloon festival is that weekend as well, local lodging may be limited.
Best wishes,
Karon & George Miller
