E90 Meet to drive some canyons

Caster · 08-17-2006, 10:52 AM

I'm down--just if it isn't too far from where I am lol..

I don't think I'm going to handle canyons as well as you guys, I'm completely stock, I've tooken my car to canyons before and like 40-45MPH is where it tops off before it gets dangerous (or too dangerous for me)...

HI GUYS! sorry, I forgot I made this post!!

I'm SO DOWN! who wants to go this sunday, the 27th? if this is not enough notice, that's cool, we can always do another!!

I'm thinking canyons around Santa Clarita, zip 91381... I like Lake Hughes Road (an exit off the 5 north) to San Fransisquito Canyon, back out to civilization, on Copperhill Road, which leads to either McBean Road, or The Old Rd, both of which have easy 5 freeway access....

We could meet at the Lake Hughes exit of the 5 north at like... noon? ride the canyons till we get out the other end (depends on group average speed, probably like... 1 hour? then do whatever we want...

The canyons are incredibly scenic. You get to see Lake Hughes, lots of awesome geography, and in San Fransisquito Canyon, you get to see the remains of SF Dam, which washed out in the 30's... There are pieces of concrete the size of mobile homes in there!

So what do you say, Sunday the 27th at noon? if you have a better idea, let me know!!

Matt

ADDED 8-22

NEW LOCATION!!! THE LOCATION IN THIS POST IS INACCURATE!!!

///Matt · 08-21-2006, 08:16 PM

Also... Longtran, is there any chance that if you came, you could bring me a set of white PMB? that'd make my day even better!

That is 300 miles away for me. We need a Central/Nor Cal run as well

ADHD · 08-21-2006, 10:52 PM

maybe we should do Angeles crest that way its centralized for all of us!

///Matt · 08-21-2006, 10:56 PM

Angeles on a sunday afternoon is crowded, dangerous, and overrun with po-po.

I love to drive canyons, and we have some GREAT ones to use up before fall rains clog them with gravel and landslides.

It'd be fun to get a nice long string of us cruising through these beautiful and very fun canyons together... How about it?

Matt

longtran · 08-22-2006, 10:07 AM

if i get my shocks and sway bar installed by this week, i would join you guys.

///Matt · 08-22-2006, 11:24 AM

Come anyway bro! you don't need that stuff to come and have some fun! besides, it'd make for the perfect before/after! charge the canyons with me NOW, without the sways, then AGAIN after the install! it'd be badass!

BzsBimmer · 08-23-2006, 12:34 AM

Man SOOOOOOO tempting
I MIGHT be in LA (Camarillo) this weekend... how far is this from there?
Also would my wife, dog, and kid get carsick hehehehe

///Matt · 08-23-2006, 12:38 AM

Camarillo is pretty far out from where we are starting... maybe about an hour? and yes, I think it's safe to say that at least the kids and dog would get sick.

I'm going out for a test run of the whole route right now! I'll let everyone know just how awesome it is, assuming everything is open! =)
