Saturday L.A. Fun Run
TT, a few of us are doing a winter fun run up Glendora Mountain Road to Mount Baldy and would enjoy having some more drivers along. Never been, but these are supposed to be fantastic roads. Route below.
Meet up is at 9:45 at the Shell station Shell, 1860 E Rte 66, Glendora, CA 91740. Plan is to end up at Mt. Baldy lodge for lunchtime, then either re-run the same route down, proceed on up the switchbacks to the top and maybe see some snow, or take the straight/quick way down and get home early. Lots of options. Just North of the i210 freeway and the SR57 junction .

For the first time in my life, I wish I was in SoCal for the day! I looked up the route and it looks really beautiful.

This type of event is icing on the cake with older cars and their owners. Attempts to make them yearly events are a good ideal with different destinations.

We should do a Central CA drive next, with a hot run up to either Courtright reservoir (highway 168) or Road's End in King's Canyon (highway 180). Both are absolutely beautiful.

We had fun, the last bit of the Mt. Baldy road was gated so we ran up and down the various local rods there until lunch time then went home .
Sunny and balmy, almost no wind, I didn't even slide on the wet/muddy parts ! . Car is filthy tho' .
