socal riders

[sdbrit68]

the orange county guys are getting ready to ride again.....so of course people are welcome.

next sunday we will be meeting at buena park mall at 9am for a pre-ride.

a word of warning......we will have some newer group riders, so it wont be a race around the twisties day. A good scenic cruise, and I believe, but could be mistaken.....but lunch at the infamous biker hang out " cooks corner".

We will be taking it fairly easy and just enjoying the ride......so, whos in ?????

[yellowpad]

I think we should ask the Mod to move it to the "event" section. Regardless, this would be a cool idea....

Thanks for setting this up....

Sounds good.... ignore the other post for staging at Fatburger... Wally World parking lot it is.

I'll probably have a passenger.



Hey Brit... you went to the Harley event last Sunday... uneventful with respect to the po-po's?


Either way, I'm putting my stock pipes back on until some of the heat dies down.

[yellowpad]

i am getting news that some folks are riding to San Diego that same morning to tour USS Midway....

Are we still on?

[RichLockyer]

Yup... I'll be there.
I heard about the SCRC ride to SD, but I don't think there's any SCRC members on the forum here. My group has ridden with the Palomar chapter a number of times, as well as the newly formed Inland Valley chapter... bunch of great people. In fact, Saturday, I'm riding with the IV chapter to Newcom's Ranch on Angeles Crest for lunch.

BTW: Cook's Corner does not accept plastic of any kind so bring a 20 for lunch.

the below depicts the bottom half of where we're going... but in a nutshell -
1.) From BP Mall to PCH taking Beach Blvd all the way
2.) Taking PCH south towards laguna beaches
3.) Taking Ortega Hwy back up north
4.) Taking side streets to head to Cook's Corner in Trabuco Canyons for lunch.
Edit: from Cook's, we take chapman up north towards Buena Park and split ways
Chapman Ave has different freeway entrances... 55fwy and 57 intersects

Sounds awesome. Unfortunately, I will have to pass on this one. The only rides I can make are saturday rides. Damn! How sad. Anyway, good luck to you all!

That's cool. Instead of following the mapped route exactly, we can turn off of PCH at the marina just past Del Taco. This heads up toward the mission and crosses the 5 and becomes Ortega.

From the staging area in BP, it's 60 miles to Cook's. There is a Shell station at Santa Margarita & Trabuco, so we can make a fuel stop there and keep everyone from running short on the way home from Cook's.

You got it.
It'll put us at Cook's fairly early depending on what kind of time we make.
I'm figuring we'll average 30-40mph for most of the ride. We'll be getting up there for some stretches of PCH and Antonio, but nothing too tough for the newer riders.

It'll also get us on the way home before the afternoon heat really starts boiling.

[sdbrit68]

rich, you bringing the wife ?

my girlfriend may meet us at cooks for lunch, since it is like 4 miles from the house
