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.

XL for 914Toy, thanks.

24 Hour Notice. The 2020 Route 66 Classic is about to start.
I have been informed by the *official* Route 66 Competition Committee that my revised Covid plan of Barstow to Victorville is insufficient mileage (50) due to the limited number (1) of cars registered. Therefore . . . . The route has been extended.


New Plan:
Start near Laughlin. (where the original event was scheduled to end)
9:14 AM - Pick up Route 66 from Highway 95.
The tour will visit Goffs, Essex, Amboy, Bagdad. Ludlow, Newberry Springs and Daggett before arriving in Barstow for lunch.
After 200 miles of lonely road, the drive to Victorville will surely seem much more exciting.

Have fun folks! I have been on 914World hiatus and didn't notice that things were back up and running. If I had had my wits about me I would have had a better chance to drive that far. Hope it works well.

Ready or not. Here we go.

After being rejected twice I decided to skip Amboy this time and pick up Route 66 again before Lodlow.

If I could have made it to Amboy, this is what it looks like.

Glad you ate at Emma Jens, best oatmeal
Been in the same family forever. Ate there many times when I was a Victorville Firefighter. Parked the engine in the back so the Chief wouldn’t see us.

aha sir Greg! hehehe

By this time John should be at Oscar’s mansion and probably they are in the garage hanging out.

The End. Thanks for watching.
Be Safe and hope to see you for next years Route 66 Classic.

Thanks for the virtual ride along, John

Sorry we're gonna miss hanging out - maybe something later in the year when things slow down around here

Well that was fun. Great to see old friends and new as well. Thx are in order for Greg aka CoonDog. Though the skies were ominous we never saw a drop of water from Temecula and on. There were no breakdowns (that I know of) so the event was obviously ordained by the 914 Gods. Thx again Greg and we'll see ya'll at the GnR next.

Thanks for coming John! Thank you also for the shirt!
Stay safe and for sure you are still on ur way home!

Thanks to @Coondog for organizing the run.
Great to see old friends and make new acquaintances.
My count was 42 914's ans some wanna bee watercooled Porsches.

Nice John, I wish I could have joined you for that one, that is a wonderful way to start the Rally and a beautiful reason to have a Route 66.

Thank you John for the shirt. I owe you something, although you didn't want money.

Your shirt designs are always clever and wearable! Good to see you again!
