SoCal TwistyTour Sunday 9/19/04

[Howard Agency]

So much fun, let's try it again.

No Host TwistyTour Sunday 9/19/04

Depart Flying J Truckstop, Gorman 9:00am(ish) via Lockwood Valley and Ojai to Elkins Ranch Golf Course, Fillmore for lunch 11:30am(ish). All makes welcome.

Starting point is about one hour north of LA off I5 at the Mt Pinos/Frazier Mountain Road Exit. This is a tour, not a caravan nor a race. Start at A, end at B, drive at your own pace. Yield to faster cars!

Directions:
Leave Flying J, take Frazier Mountain Rd West ~6 miles to Lockwood Valley Rd.
Left (only choice) ~27miles to T. Left on SR33 toward Ojai, ~37 miles to T.
Left on SR150 ~18 miles to T. East on SR126 ~9 miles to SR23.
Right ~2 miles to Elkins Ranch.

Notes:
Breakfast is OK at Flying J, but avoid the buffet unless you like deep fried lard balls.
Get gas before you go, 70 miles no services. Cell phones useless.
When they say 'Dip' on Lockwood Valley Rd, they ain't kidding.
Coming down into Ojai just after Wheeler Gorge campground is a perennial wet spot in the road. Slow down.

Bring a putter and ball if you want in on the putting contest.

Bump. Remember what happens to Porsches that don't get driven.

This sounds like fun. I'll try to make, though may be on sprinkler repair duty.

Grrr, I'll be in S.F. this weekend... too bad b/c I'd expect this would be an excellent run. Have fun gents!

Sounds fun. I will be at the Zone 8 Autocross at Irwindale raceway.
You guys be SAFE.

I'm in. Hopefully Scrappy will be California-legal by then.

I might make it, maybe it will inspire me to set a BBRIV date (looking at October).

Not Halloween weekend I hope... There's a Rolex 24 series race or American Le Mans series (I can't remember which) race at the Calif. Speedway that weekend. Lots-o-porsches going really fast for a long time

I did that road in a BMW MINI last year. One of my favorite roads around.

I'd join, but I'm watching my boss do the triathlon in Malibu.

Have fun.

I was just thinking yesterday that I hadn't seen you post in awhile. I hope everything's OK, and that you can make the drive.
