umm, what heater? unsure.gif


I suppose I can wear a bunch of warm clothes, but sheesh, thats going to be coooollld.


On the other hand this route will probalby not get any better over the next couple months at least. So a delay may not do much. I would be open to considering a route change, but I don't know where.

Waiting till the last minute on this. Cold is OK, but if it rains Friday night and drops to 20f in the mountains Saturday morning, could have a problem with 914 Hockey on the roads.

This group can barely stay on the road in the dry laugh.gif

Stay tuned for last minute developments. We can always do the Mulholland to the beach to Ojai to Fillmore.

Howard's beach route is nice. I've driven it a couple of times (trying hard to keep up with him). Even if it goes that way you won't be disappointed.

So I guess I should share a story from today...

As we were starting out, the whole group of us passed by Mr. CHP writing a ticket to a motorcycle rider. We weren't screaming, but we might have been exceeding the limit ph34r.gif

Anyway, he finished writing the ticket pretty quickly and was behind us. I think everyone pretty much prdicted this would happen, so we slowed down to avoid getting any souvenirs.

He proceeded to advance up the group, tailing each of us for a few seconds and finally passed Howard in the lead car and set up on the road ahead a ways, facing traffic, radar on. As we stopped at the view point, a motorcyclist coming from the other way informed us of the trap. We managed to slow down a couple guys before getting caught as they went by. The second group of riders seemed to think our "slow down" hand movement meant "rev it buddy!" so who knows what happened to them...

Sure enough as we passed the cop doing 25, he just had to sit there and watch. biggrin.gif

Unfortunately, Slits wasn't there to entertain the local law enforcement. We did talk about him though, so the legend of Slits at WCC05 hasn't died.
Apaprently we have all learned from his misfortune..

Where's the rest of the pix???
TonyAKAVW
Yeah, I saw a preview of a picture where Mr. CHP is right on my rear bumper. I want to see the fullsize biggrin.gif

Lots of good shots-in-motion as well...

I just left Chuck a message about the pictures he and the wife were taking. Saturday afternoon he said he's got about 250 and needs to resize the good ones because they're all like 8 mega pixel images or something like that.

He has printed some pics from ALMS races that were poster size big and you couldn't tell they were from a digital camera. Nice...
Howard
Mike, thanks for bringing them. Great couple. They can download a bulk photo resizer here that's free to try. Works well and can convert them all to 640x480 with one click.

I can host them at my site if you like, so let me know.

I just don't get on this board enough... missed a nice local run... but the story of CHP and Mike D's name bring back memories of a run Mike came on with me up in the Santa Clarita area. Not sure where Mike was in the pack, but we were all traveling a bit fast when we came up over a blind hill that quickly revealed the end of our road at a T intersection and a CHP sitting right at the T. There were some screeching tires and even some cars coming around other cars to avoid an accident but thankfully and amazingly, no response from the Chippy.

Can't say that much for the next run I was on with Mike... we were on our way to a D&G swapmeet and we got pulled over together. Mike had been following me and I think the CHP gave him a bigger $$ ticket for "driving too close" behind me... or maybe it was something Mike said :-)

Looks like you all had fun.

I remember that T-junction and the screeching tires. It was nearly a 914 pileup.

Dave: Another group run up in your neighborhood would be a lot of fun! hint hint...

Hmmm... actually I got on the phone with Mike on Saturday evening... and he is thinking about setting up a similar route... badger us both and we might put something together.
