Well, I couldn't make this event regardless but now I don't have to deal with FOMO I suppose. Sorry you had to cancel, JP. Looks like I'll have to wait until fall to hook back up with everyone!

I was going to roll in the Boxster. But they already cancelled our Moab hotel for next weekend, so I was afraid this event was going to be a Covid-19 casualty.
I'm getting so bored working from and never leaving the house. It's been almost 3 weeks for me already because I got a 'regular' viral cold on Monday 3/9. They did the mandatory 'work from home' the following Monday. Haven't been back to work since, and barely past the driveway. Took the dog out for a joy ride in the 914 today though. |

I called La Posada and Riverside Resort to cancel my reservations back on March 24th. The gal I spoke with told me that they would be crediting the $ back to my CC (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
The gal I spoke with at the Riverside on the same day told me that they were closed until sometime in April and that I'd have to call back and speak with the GM after they open again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |

Received an email reply from the Riverside Resort on Friday:
"As requested, today, the reservation detailed below has been cancelled and $60.86 has been refunded to the xxxxx credit card on file. Depending on the banking institution, the credit may take 5 to 10 business days to appear. Please take good care of you and yours. We look forward to seeing you, healthy and happy, in Laughlin, Nevada soon. Best regards, Your Friends at the Riverside Resort" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif) |

Regroup on Sunday in Corona, join the So Cal June Rally and drive to Mount Palomar. FYI........June 5th is a Friday. I will check if the Victorville R-66 museum will be open but beware I wouldn’t leave my car unattended. That area of Victorville is a crime ridden shit hole. The City has long abandoned the ideal of anything R-66. Old town Victorville is mostly burnt buildings infested by homeless who get dumped off buses from Los Angeles. Also Victorville is home to the largest Federal Prison in the Nation. Every week they drop paroled inmates off across the street. Barstow is no better. A good scenic drive is from Barstow along National Trails Hwy “R-66” into Victorville then get back on the freeway. Also if you are not heading down the Cajon Pass by 3pm expect bumper to bumper traffic. If you get off the 15 at Cleghorn to continue the old 66 Hwy. do not stop for pics or to rest. That entire area is known as a pick up spot for guys who like guys. They hide in the bushes waiting for cars to stop then hit you up. Sorry to burst your bubble but my 30 plus years as a Firefighter in Victorville warns you to stay away from the old town area. Go to Oscars and enjoy. |

When I googled the Museum it said "Temporarily closed"! But come on down John. We'll put you up for the evening and join the group drive which happens to be in my backyard. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Thanks @Coondog , I fixed the date.
I have always avoided Victorville and only ever stopped in Barstow to piss. I guess that section of Route 66 will be drive by only. Thanks for the heads up. @76-914 I didn't expect that the museum would be open, but I thought it sounded good. Thanks for the offer, I am staying at Oscar's Hacienda on Friday night and then heading home after the rally. @stevend914 I accidentally took the wrong exit once and found myself in East St. Louis. It was every bit as lovely as Coondog's description of Victorville. I need you three plus @914Toy , Oscar and Lawrence to give me your size so I can make sure you get a shirt, since you were signed up for the original event. |

I am going to pick a spot along 371 where some Desert Rats will join you. 3 possibly 4 of us. coming from Coachella Valley.
I thought there used to be a glider airport on that road but now I cannot find it. |

I'm a Large on the shirt.....Thanks John!!!
Blame me for this years' Route 66, I love it! We stopped off in East St. Louis a few years back in a Ryder truck towing a car on a trailer, the locals looked at us and started to drool. Needless to say we kept a right on a rollin'......... |
