September 11th GMR Run!

Sorry for the late notice, but the next cruise is this Saturday, September 11th.

The meet point will be at a Kohl's in Upland with a very large parking lot. The address for Kohl's is:

1923 N Campus Ave
Upland, CA 91784

This puts us only about 5 miles or so from the beginning of the run. As I mentioned above, the total distance for the entire cruise is 43.3 miles. It should last about an hour and a half total. Once we finish the run the meeting point will be at a restaurant called La Tolteca (EXCELLENT Mexican food with a large parking lot and plenty of room for all of us inside). The restaurant is less than 5 miles from the end of the run, so again it should be a lot easier to keep together. The address for La Tolteca is:

429 N Azusa Ave
Azusa, CA 91702

I am going to shoot for a meet time at the Kohl's in Upland at 2:45p.m. We will leave the lot at 3:30p.m. With any luck, we should arrive for dinner between 5 and 5:30p.m.

Here is the route we are taking.
I have gone through and cleaned it up by hand (don't trust google maps completely) and it should be simple. I will have directions for everyone at the Kohl's and will hand them out before we leave. The drive is a lot of fun and the views are pretty incredible. See you all Saturday!

Lulz, actually we don't get hassled much. Since its all makes and models the cops seem to leave us around for the most part. They definitely seem to pick on the import guys though when it's just them.

Thanks for coming yesterday everyone! We had just under 40 cars and considering I gave less than a week's notices, that was pretty solid

Great run. Perfect weather, no cops, and fantastic food.

Also the variety of cars was awesome. GTR, Vette's, lots of Evos (thanks as always to the SoCal Evo guys for coming out), GTO's, G8's, Mustangs, SRT4, WRX, BMW M3 and 335i, CTS-V, STS-V, S2000 etc. Next run will be October 9th and I'll post up details as we get closer.

Confusion follows.



The one. The only. . . The Bob.



Can you find the U.F.O.?




These guys weren't with us, but I like bikes, so . .



Love the GTR!



Never seen an Evo IV in person before.
