How about this for a plan,

Thur. 8AM or earlier.

Starbucks,
133 West Route 66
Glendora, CA

Departing at 9:14 up Glendora Mtn. Rd. and Stop at Newman point and baldy for the view/rest stops. We can make more stops for photo ops and then to lunch.

The Hat Cafe
857 North Central Avenue
Upland, CA

The road was closed on the 18th so I'll check tomorrow to confirm its open for the run.

Route sounds good to me and who could pass on The Hat! I saw on this evening's news that the snow level will be down to 2000 ft and there will be road closures on Hwy 2. I'm not sure if this will affect GMR or the Baldy road. Old School, let's get together on the 31st and check the road going to Baldy. WE can then let the group know what the status is. You game??

Just putting it out there anyone want to dust off the Porsche and try to meet some place
maybe a short run and breakfast. you know me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) =(IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) But i'll give it a go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

Actually if i'm not mistaken New years day there is a big car hang out at Irwindale race track...Put on by Jay leno (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

If not maybe just to BS..


If snow/road closures are an issue is this Irwindale track thing for real? It can be our backup location. Does anyone have details???

Gents, From the county website for road conditions. The road from GMR to Baldy is closed. They might open the road on Jan 1, the key word is "might".

The road from the east fork to GMR is also closed. Will it be opened tomorrow, who knows. From what I have seen on the news, it doesn't look like the road will be opened. Let's look for an update later today.

Same thing happened to me, i drove 20 miles came to a stop, went to restart and it cranked slow. When I got home the battery had a few volts left and wouldnt turn over at all. I recently replaced the Voltage Reg, so i unplugged it, and plugged it in again firmly. Put the trickle charger on and drove it today through seal beach, huntington beach, and caught the 405 from newport to round back to long beach. and all is well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)

As of 18:00 today, the road from GMR to Baldy is closed. Is there a plan 'B'? I will check the website later tonight and see if it's been updated.
