Would anyone like to plan another cruise and meet. Surfn and I were talking and we were trying to decide between either doing a cruise from down here in SD to Venice Beach on a Sunday and hang for the day, maybe do lunch or trying to make it to crystal cove one saturday morning and checking out the cars there and then doing brunch afterward, this would be early morning (I believe the show goes from 6am-10am) and for those interested coming from SD we can cruise up and meet the people coming from the OC and LA, maybe they can cruise together too if they would like.

So here are the possible dates being that there is something going on every other Saturday and Sunday (car show related):

Saturday July 16: Early morning cruise to Crystal Cove Show and brunch (I will find out what time the show runs)

or

Sunday July 31: Cruise from SD to Venice, hang and do lunch

or if you guys want since they are spaced out we could do both.

Let me know your oppinions ASAP so we can get as many people together as possible.


So far we have three for each any other takers?

 

The crystal cove show kicks off at 7am (some guys get there earlier) and goes until 9 most people start leaving at 8:30

ok so this is the plan for July 16, its a Saturday and since the cyrstal cove show is so early in the morning, we will meet in the parking lot of the Starbucks/Barnes and Noble in Encinitas around 6:15am (I will be there sometime between 6 and 6:15) and then start heading up at 6:30am, so make sure your there on time, I know of one person that is joining in on the freeway in San Clemente, so he will just meet up as we pass. We should be able to make it to Crystal Cove aournd 7 am. Hang for the show until about 9 am when it ends and then go to breakfast somewhere in the area (Does anyone have recomendations on somewhere to eat up there?) For those coming from the north and heading south to the show let me know, there is another group forming that will be coming down from there, and I can be the middle man on that info. Now as for the route to take, who would be up for getting off the freeway in San Clemente and cruising up the coast, at that hour it shouldnt take much longer than the freeway and is a nicer drive or would you prefer taking the freeway as far as possible?

For those that dont know where the starbucks/barnes and noble is in Encinitas.

Off the 5 exit Leucadia Blvd. and head east (right from the south and a left if coming from the north) you will go about 1.5 miles (past residential and through a golf course as you go over a hill) as you come down the backside of that hill you will see shopping centers on either side, as you pass the Sports Authority on the right hand side move into the right turn lane and make a right into the center at the first light, you will see a shell on the right corner and an AMPM on the opposite corner. (If you make it to El Camino Real you've gone too far, either make a uturn and go back up to the light and turn left or you can make a right and then another right into the center) Once you enter the center head straight to the stop sign and through it and park your there. You will see me and whoever else may be there by that time.

If you would like my number to communicate incase you get lost let me know and I will PM you with it.

The July 31 cruise is still up in the air and if enough people want to do that we will organize it, but right now I only have three for that.

 

That is the same day as the Glendale Cruise street show! but that one starts in the evening about 5pm, I might take a ride out and Check the Crystal Cove show in the morning. Do you have directions, or an information website?


Here is the info on the Glendale show.

someone posted a map and good directions here

if you need more info let me know....unfortuntely there is no official page, its an unofficial show, but its awesome.

 

Is this just for Mustangs? looks like ferrari, porsche, Lambos etc

 

the show is for everyone we are cruising up as a group of stangs...only stangs that I know of that show up regularly are some really nice early models and shlebys, so it will be a new thing to the show to add a whole group of stangs, worth the trip if your into cars, they have it all, exotics, muscle cars, classics, hot rods, woodies, sports cars...you name it its probably there.

 

you coming uwti????

 

ok here is the final plans...we will meet at the original location of the Starbuck/Barnes and Noble parking lot (they are connected) in Encinitas. I will be there around 6am and we will leave at 6:30 on the dot so make it there before that, 6:15 would be perfect then you can get a coffee to wake up for the drive. Here are directions...

If you are coming North on the I-5
Exit Leucadia Blvd and make a right or
If you are coming South on the I-5
Exit Leucadia Blvd and make a left
head east for 1.7 Miles
You are going to pass Calle Barcelona
at the very next light (Town Center Pl) make a right into shopping center
go straight through stop sign and park, your there.

If you are coming from Escondido and are using Del Dios or some similar route I will assume you know how to get to Encinitas, and hopefully you are somewhat familiar with the area, if not let me know. But the center is on the South West corner of El Camino Real and Leucadia Blvd. If you are coming down Rancho Sante Fe Rd. it turns into Leucadia coming across El Camino Real, make a left at the next light into the shopping center. The center is North of Encinitas Blvd so if you are coming from there turn right onto El Camino Real and head North, when you see Home Depot on your right the center on your left is the center with the Barnes and Noble, go to the next light Leucadia and turn left and then another left at the next light again your there. PM me for my number in case any of you need to contact me.
