Does no one cruise anymore?

Why is it in the past few years I've noticed a big loss in the trend of cruises. I think of all the enthusiasts groups I've been around, I actually enjoyed the RX-7 groups the most. In fact I miss them.

Certainly the most memorables cruises the come to mind are the Ojai cruises that are mid spring or so.

About a year or so after gas shot up, attendance in the Socal 7's started dropping off I wonder why ......

Nice to see you're still lurking around.... sometimes I think I still see your old CYM driving around...

Yup. Started way back in the day, probably early 70's. Cops would sit in neighborhoods, and if you drove back and forth 3 or more times, you'd get nailed for cruising.
