As mentioned, there are a few fun little sections. There's definately enough to justify heading out vs meeting in a parking lot. If it rains - you can get some mud splashes on your truck.

I've never seen a posting prohibiting driving on the rocks in the river bed...

No signs but I got a warning from the ranger; "stay outta the river, it's dangerous"? Flash-floods and such he said! :D;)

:lol: Actually theyre pretty good. Just look at your avatar (gon2srf). That is a lot of air between! I think you were the first to do something crazy like that with an FJCruiser.

Yeah, those days are over. My back says no more to the harsh landings and the bank account says no to the repair bills. :meh: Gettin' some light rain here in Costa Mesa.
 
I talked to Hawkeye, he wont be able to make it.. Maybe some of the white crusier group is not showing Tare and Mo......:D:D:D
 
I was told yesterday....I have to work :frown::frown:


have fun...maybe I will see some of you at the toyota thing in long beach...
 
Booked tomorrow with a cousin's birthday... minus one JAFW80.

Hoping to eventually meet the rest of the crew I havent met yet
 
Hey, the dissappearing/re-appearing Mo here. Look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow. Will be there with Scott and possibly a few buddies. I thought I was going to have to be pissed, you had me Alan for a second.

Dave I will call you to see about contributions. ;)
 
So here is what Yahoo maps gave me for directions. Anything look out of whack to you locals?

# Turn Right on OSO PKY - go 3.96.2 mikm
# Turn Left on FOOTHILL TRANSPORTATION CORRIDOR(CA-241 N) toward RIVERSIDE (Toll applies) - go 2.94.6 mikm

I will be on CB channel 3 since tomorrow is the 3rd and no one else has given out a CB channel. Yeah, I know you show offs will be on your fancy HAM channels.
 
Looks right on to me Mark. I'll turn on channel 3.

Alan.. no 80 ? What the heck, you're going to ruin the group shot! kidding!

Mo, my cellphone died on the way home from the fight dude... bring whatever you want for the contribution. Glad you're coming man.

Mark I would make one change to save you going on the toll road. Follow those but as you are heading east on Oso Parkway make a left on Antonio Parkway before you get to the toll road. Take Antonio north to Santa Margarita Pkwy and turn right. Then follow your directions from there. Your directions will work but you will go east of Antonio on Oso and wind up west of Antonio when you get to Santa Margarita. This change will be faster.

Tare, glad you are going to make it.
 
Great meet guys...it was nice to meet yall, with some good food and good 'drinks'. Spam Musubi -> +1. Bocce ball was a blast, thanks gon2srf! We gotta set up some more wheelin soon(with more flex).

Sorry I didn't make it guys. Some stuff came up with the girl, that i didn't plan on. See you next time! I'm glad everyone had a great great time.
 
It was great to see you all. Thanks to all who made it happen - planning, logistics, maps, GPS coordinates, food, etc... Great job by our Moderator (who's back behind the wheel of an '80 where he belongs!).

Take care,
JR
 
What a turn out! 16/17 rigs. Great time, everyone brought something for the potluck BBQ at O'Neil park. What a wonderfullyi beautiful day.

Thanks to Dave for organizing this and Scott for the logistics/planning with O'Neil park. Nice pics Mark!
 
Awesome day guys, had a blast. Thanks to all the organizers/coordinators and the cook.
