I am home after a great ride with the SoCal SOC! What a fun run this was. Saw Markos at Cars and Coffee, had breakfast with MUSBJIM, hooked up with a bunch of Da Boys and rode to the SNOW! Top DOWN of course! I'm gonna take a nap!
wish I could have joined you guys, I was busy picking up Teri's Bird
Vince look forward to seeing that bird in person... this ride was awesome as usual, not often do we start in Irvine and end up in the snow! You east coasters anit got nutin on US! LOL.... road warrior award goes to Will Pierson for his San Diego to Angeles Crest round-a-bout today.... A close second is my Brutha from that diff mutha JIMBO or as you all know this pineapple head MUSBJIM... It was a blast meeting Dirk and his awesome Outlaw Cab. and of course Bill Webster too. Great idea today Bill... GERD nice camera work today bro... You guys were right i look MUCH thinner in the snow! With short rides like these I really look forward to Morro Bay in April...
P.S. Will, I already took my nap... LOL...

Great day guys.
Gerd that car of yours is absolutely AWESOME!!! This is the first time I have seen it in person, and pictures do not do it justice.
Hopefully, I can talk Danny in to getting his Ghia back on the street, and he can join us too. It is a Cal Look time capsule from 1980.
Great to see all of you guys again too.

Sorry to have missed the drive. I had to pick up my car at JPS. He was changing my wheels. Driving on the Angeles Crest is one of my favorite place especially when it is not crowded. Sounds like you all are having fun.

I have reduced my pictures, but they still look like crap.
Here is 1 17% of the original size.

Looks like you guys had good weather and a good time. I went on a run with the local Porsche club, which was fine, but it looks like you certainly had better scenery. I see Will still didn't drive the IM. Guess he's saving it for really good weather.

What a GREAT day hanging with my SOC buds and cruising the Crest Hwy!! Maybe next time more of the SOC contingency can join us and we can continue this route over the hill to Wrightwood? I'm working on a video with the pics I got from Gerd & Bill. I'll try to post it by tonight.
Peace - Out!
Peace - Out!
Wrightwood would be a cool trek... cool shops and of course fine dining! LOL...
I uploaded my 'Angeles Crest' video onto Vimeo last night but it seems they are having some problems/delays. I will post when they get it all sorted out. I think you gear-heads will enjoy it.
Peace - Out!

What the hell did you guys do up there on Saturday?
Angeles Crest Highway is now CLOSED, again, and the Los Angeles Times had an article this morning saying Newcomb's Ranch is closing its doors for good!
And, you did all this damage WITHOUT VINCE?!?!?
Impressive.

I guess we picked the right day for our drive!
I hope the owner will find a way to keep Newcomb's Ranch open. One can only hope

Knowing Dr R I have a different take.
The Station Fire was declared a disaster and therefore FEDERAL money was used to repair and re-open the roads. The workers we saw on Saturday were being paid with federal money.
If mudslides happen now it will be up to the state with no money to re-open the roads. Sounds like he is crying to the state "don't close my bar". IE dont think a reporter from the Times just happened to be there yesterday, he called them!

Not sure what the deal is with Vimeo so I uploaded the video on You Tube. The sound track from the camera is a little messed up so I couldn't edit it as smoothly as I'd like - so for this video TURN UP YOUR VOLUME louder than you usually would. Also, for the sake of brevity I edited and sped-up the movie speed so that it wasn't 40 minutes of road video.
Looks like you guys had a great run with some of the usual shenanigans.
Nice work with the video, pops.

Not fast enough to shake that UFO that kept popping up when the sun was in your eyes.
Hey Jim,
Every video you put together gets cooler. That was amazing!
You've missed your calling.

Great video, Jim!
I'm pretty sure my JPS doesn't have a "ludicrous speed."
But, I'm gonna look into it.
Damn, that's fast!

Charlie's 1st time driving the Speedster and maybe we wernt driving as fast as Jim and encountered some bikers.
Jim, you seem to be good with hand signs. Could you translate this one??
They seems to be using the middle finger pointing us to the right????

I think the portion of the fast speed video would be the same view from Chris Nichols motorcycle helmet cam on one of this typical rides!

Cool video, Jim!
Sounds like a bunch of angry bees inside a vacuum cleaner in the hi-speed section. Also, I noticed a black UFO shadowing you guys during those same hi-speed sections. Were you using some kind of nuclear power, or was it a flux capacitor?

Too much fun! Jim, you are da Bomb! I think Pineapple Head Prod. is the coolest!
