View Full Version : GI: Post sevenstock beach/canyon cruise
Atilla 08-25-2010, 08:57 PM Ok folks - pretty simple.
For the past couple of years we've organized some post sevenstock activities(IE. Dyno day last year) and this year a couple of us were thinking about throwing this out there...
Which would you rather do??
Option A: Canyon Run - 18Highway + Alt Route
Approximate Distance: 34 miles from Starting Point
http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w357/ren3sis/Post7stockBcruiseCanyon.jpg
Details: Basically it's the Infamous San Bernardino Cruise. We can either do the 18 Highway straight up or go for The Gusto! and take the back way that's full of twisties n' switchbacks. :rock:
OR...
Option B: Beach Cruise from Mazda HQ down to Claim Jumpers in Long Beach.
Approximate Distance: 34 Miles from Starting Point
http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w357/ren3sis/Post7stockBcruiseB.jpg
Details: Cali all day long. Clean cars, Cool Breeze n' some Grub! Shine your cars n' get ready to cruise the coast line
Post up n' discuss - you down to go? yes? no? why not? - This will be scheduled for the Sunday after Sevenstock 13.
sephyobsessed 08-25-2010, 09:13 PM I vote beach cruise.....gotta love chillin with everyone afterward, and I want to take some pretty pictuars! :p:
RIWWP 08-25-2010, 09:32 PM On Sevenstock day or the next day?
Cause my schedule with my sister seems like it means leaving sunday morning at this point. Would hate to miss this.
Edit: I love how both responders so far are from the east coast :)
Atilla 08-25-2010, 09:33 PM It would have to be the Sunday following 7stock :(
RIWWP 08-25-2010, 09:35 PM You guys are gonna make me move to the land of wildfires, smog, stupid laws, and earthquakes aren't you? :(
All for the love of the curves.
xl2oGel2x 08-25-2010, 09:37 PM option B
sephyobsessed 08-25-2010, 09:38 PM haha curves are fun
:suspect: in more ways than one :lol:
yes i do find it humourous that only east coast is responding o.O wassup wit dat?
RX8cali 08-25-2010, 09:43 PM option B i know a few stops ;)
Atilla 08-25-2010, 09:51 PM You guys are gonna make me move to the land of wildfires, smog, stupid laws, and earthquakes aren't you? :(
All for the love of the curves.
meh..it's not so much all that you gotta worry about...
it's the cost of living that'll kill ya :(
but yes...the terrain is beautiful - feel free to join the ranks of the Canyon Rats ;)
option B i know a few stops ;)
:werd:
xl2oGel2x 08-25-2010, 09:53 PM option A sounds fun....but I think there will be more ppl down for B...and we dont have to worry about accidents
Atilla 08-25-2010, 09:54 PM ^were you there at the last beach cruise last year?? :icon_no2:
FoxeyL8y 08-25-2010, 10:02 PM I pick B!
xl2oGel2x 08-25-2010, 10:06 PM ya I was at the Beach cruise...but there is a higher risk in a canyon...
c0ldf1ame 08-25-2010, 10:26 PM i vote option A, with a stop at big bear for lunch
Jedi54 08-25-2010, 10:47 PM :suspect:
lesper4 08-25-2010, 10:49 PM LOL i think the drive in the mountains is too far for most but I am down for either one (and i live near the mountains) but depending on how many cars you get option B would be better. I think the most we have taken on a mountain cruise is 18 and that is the big bear roads which are much wider with bigger paved turn outs. I dont think? the route you list has many big turn outs and they are all dirt and the roads are two way traffic.
Is there a combination of the two ala mahalland and neputues (but that place doesnt have enough room).
RX8cali 08-25-2010, 10:49 PM Do it no balls...
shadycrew31 08-25-2010, 11:12 PM Why cant we do both and do a bonfire at the beach?
Jedi54 08-25-2010, 11:13 PM if we do the SB cruise first, we won't be in H.B in time to get a pit.
besides, that's a TON of driving and I'm sure most won't want to do all that driving.
shadycrew31 08-25-2010, 11:14 PM ooooooooooooooooooo
Always there for the logic.
JustinsFDpoweredFC 08-26-2010, 12:26 AM Im down for doing both. Got to love canyon carving and the long slow beach run:rock: But whichever wins out is cool with me
IzzyRX8 08-26-2010, 12:41 AM ^were you there at the last beach cruise last year?? :icon_no2:
:suspect:
JAMinRX8 08-26-2010, 06:18 AM im down for either, but it all depends on when it starts cause i have work at the ass crack of dawn on monday
Atilla 08-26-2010, 10:11 AM Both events will begin in the morning - estimated roll-out time: 10am
bumpski's!
sephyobsessed 08-26-2010, 10:14 AM hrm seems like we need some convincing....
Beach cruise = sephy and foxey in bathing suits :p:
ZOOM-I-DO 08-26-2010, 10:16 AM Both events will begin in the morning - estimated roll-out time: 10am
bumpski's!
Sooooo both events are starting at the same time. Pick one and show up?
:confused:
Atilla 08-26-2010, 10:18 AM lol - sorry for the confusion doug. (i am still recovering from last night :p:)
Whichever option wins - it will start at 10am.
Jedi54 08-26-2010, 10:29 AM Beach cruise = Atilla in a bikini :p:
:scared:
Phil's 8 08-26-2010, 10:33 AM If Atilla shows in a bikini, Nancy and I will make a mad dash for Vegas:Eyecrazy:......I choose the beach run cuz I need to start for home by 1pm and if we start for Long Beach at 10 we should make it by 1.
shadycrew31 08-26-2010, 10:40 AM WTH beach at 10am??? How about we do this. Ill take peeps for a tour of the canyons. P you take peeps to the beach we all meet up at 2pm on the beach for meat grilling and football.
unless that just causes more issues then I'll do one of my famous post edit's
sephyobsessed 08-26-2010, 10:46 AM ^^ :squint: it's causing issues with my foxey sephy sexy bikini time....
The Reverend 08-26-2010, 10:47 AM :squint:
shadycrew31 08-26-2010, 10:52 AM ^^ :squint: it's causing issues with my foxey sephy sexy bikini time....
That's why you gals can go straight to the beach and Ill take some out of towners through the hills.
sephyobsessed 08-26-2010, 10:54 AM touche.....hrm..... would there be more swively curves if we go in town? o.O I like big caravans.....can't help that love of seeing 13 or so 8's rolling down the street
xun4gvn4everx 08-26-2010, 10:54 AM Let's Carve up some canyon curves!! :rock:
shadycrew31 08-26-2010, 11:09 AM there will most likely be about 30+ rolling down the street. Pfft 13 is liek errrryyyydaaayyy in socal.
30+ is a meet
sephyobsessed 08-26-2010, 11:10 AM O.O...th-thirty? that's like.....best meet possible on the east coast.....
xun4gvn4everx 08-26-2010, 11:11 AM Socal don't F around :smoker:
sephyobsessed 08-26-2010, 11:24 AM are you saying we just screw around?
. . .
well....WE don't cause we're usually there....it's everyone else backing out that's causing issues....
xun4gvn4everx 08-26-2010, 11:25 AM No, I'm saying people don't back out at the last minute as much in socal as on the East Coast and they have a ton more cars.
Easy_E1 08-26-2010, 11:29 AM Beach!!
I have spoken. :rolleyes:
Atilla 08-26-2010, 11:30 AM snaps! Beach is killin' it!
sephyobsessed 08-26-2010, 11:33 AM touche, but socal knows where the other drivers live so they can go bug them and get them to follow...
east coast doesn't have that pleasure lol
YAY EASY! BEACH IS WINNING!!!! :D:
ZOOM-I-DO 08-26-2010, 11:34 AM Let's Carve up some canyon curves!! :rock:
I agree on the twisty's, but should consider the weather (heat). 109 yesterday and I doubt much will change by SS.
Atilla, maybe next year we should consider Mulholland, Decker, Rock Store, Neptunes Net Run. I bet the folks from outside SoCal would like to check it. We are spoiled with the amount of bitchen Canyon Runs we have to choose from.

Beach Cruise sounds great!:ylsuper:
shadycrew31 08-26-2010, 11:37 AM Cause we got shit else to do.
RIWWP 08-26-2010, 11:40 AM I was in a discussion with one of the directors here about the differences between NY and LA. Our stores aren't performing the same between them, even though on paper they should be.
Every time it comes down to: the LA mentality is different than the NY mentality.
And a large chunk of that is that NY is more focused, LA is less so. Call it lazy, call it different personal priorities, or what, but the difference shows up in the numbers.
shadycrew31 08-26-2010, 11:40 AM Id be so down for decker but that's to much for most people. and its way to far away from the beach.
If we were gonna hit Malibu id say Malibu canyon to mulholland to stunt. then schuren to las virgnes (slow) down to the pch.

We are just more laid back, NY is way more into being busy and rushing around all the time.
Jedi54 08-26-2010, 11:42 AM I vote beach and I think the timing is good.
Look, if we meet up at 10:00 we all know how many people are going to be late, we'll be LUCKY if we roll out at 10:30. By the time we get to the beach, it's 11:30 before we're all parked and by noon that place starts to fill up, the weather is good, and the scantily clad women will begin arriving. :D:
canyon runs we can do any time and can be found just about anywhere.
I think the beach is more relaxing and fitting environment for our out of town friends.
just my $.02

All your donating is $.02? Just like a banker.....................:lol2:
Nancy will be with me so I will have to be careful looking at the scantily clad women:uhh:
Most of us desert dwellers never get to see that much water in one spot :SHOCKED:

100% agree I am born and raised in NYC and am here in Vegas, as one of my duties is hiring I see a large differance from coast to coast in applicants, just saying, surely different
I miss the beach :sweatdrop
lesper4 08-26-2010, 02:55 PM With this heat I don't think our cars will like the spirited driving in the mountains...and I like scantily clad women.
Detrich 08-26-2010, 03:01 PM OPTION A.... That's a no-brainer...
Twisties over PCH anyday... :)
shadycrew31 08-26-2010, 03:25 PM pffft its only 76 in santa monica.
cold front pushing thru it's only 102 in Vegas .... it's a dry heat my arse lol
Phil's 8 08-26-2010, 04:45 PM cold front pushing thru it's only 102 in Vegas .... it's a dry heat my arse lol
Your Arse is dry heat?:eek: You would not want to be any where in ny or near the coast in cali if the temp were 102. You and I agree...the coast will be the route I go if they still have the cruise on Sunday. With all the arguing it could be called off (almost sounds like Vegas).
The Reverend 08-26-2010, 04:49 PM i think that is a good point the canyons would be fun but miserable after a long day at Sevenstock standing in the sun all day.
Detrich 08-26-2010, 05:13 PM it's the day AFTER ss... plus, depending on the time of day the canyons aren't that bad...
c0ldf1ame 08-26-2010, 05:26 PM how bout a canyon run in malibu and then cruise down pch, 1 bird, 2 stones....wait that doesnt seem right
shadycrew31 08-26-2010, 05:45 PM I suggested that earlier to, didn't get that many bites
I still plan on doing a canyon run pre beach partay.
JustinsFDpoweredFC 08-26-2010, 05:50 PM hrm seems like we need some convincing....
Beach cruise = sephy and foxey in bathing suits :p:
I now change my vote to scantily clad women ooo I mean beach :yelrotflm
RX8cali 08-26-2010, 08:50 PM if its canyon i demand a sprint. if its beach it better be a nice paced cruise due to the girls ;-) i love southern cali livn :-p
JustinsFDpoweredFC 08-26-2010, 08:59 PM Plus one to that
lesper4 08-26-2010, 11:10 PM I think if detirch makes it to the socal caravan in the morning :yelrotflm we should do what ever he wants
Jedi54 08-27-2010, 12:06 AM c'mon, we all know Detrich is going to sleep in...
HomicidalApple 08-27-2010, 06:20 AM i vote beach ^_^
c0ldf1ame 08-27-2010, 01:10 PM I think if detirch makes it to the socal caravan in the morning :yelrotflm we should do what ever he wants

JustinsFDpoweredFC 08-27-2010, 05:48 PM Well for me its real close the beach is way far but for half naked chich running around I think I can suffer the drive out
mike[piston eater] 08-29-2010, 12:50 AM option a its close to my house .....end discussion

Atilla 08-31-2010, 01:22 PM BUMP!
Poll closes this week guys - cast your votes so i can start the official thread. :D:
Jedi54 08-31-2010, 01:26 PM beach cruise is crushing this.
Does that mean we're gonna play some more beach football?
The Reverend 08-31-2010, 01:27 PM i'll cover jedi :lol2:
Atilla 08-31-2010, 01:29 PM LOL - Looks like we might actually get to finish the game we started last year :lol:
"hey guys, lets take a break..."
...a year and a half later...
"you guys ready to finish the game?"
:lol2:
Jedi54 08-31-2010, 01:34 PM it's still technically "half time" and I'm pretty sure my team is up by at least one TD.
Atilla 08-31-2010, 01:37 PM yeah...it's still 14-21. We get the ball to start off the 3rd quarter :evil_laug
mike[piston eater] 08-31-2010, 01:43 PM i was on jedis team :] im still winning
RX8cali 09-01-2010, 08:00 PM myself and a couple of 8s were in HB a while back, they seemed to love us. all but the cops. that was shady
RB RX7 09-02-2010, 02:56 AM Sounds like most of you have never cruised up to these mountains.
Living in Lake Arrowhead since the '92 riots, I'm right in the middle of the run.
Today I went to Anaheim Racing Beat, Huntington Beach DSPORT Magazine, then to Thousand Oaks a car dealer, N. Hollywood, then Irwindale JRX Rotary...then back up the hill
All pretty much normal as I run around SoCal at least 3 days a week.
Up and down the mountain here is the best there is...cooler and cleaner and you won't get better twisties and scenery anywhere close.
BTW...a beach is where you can actually go in the water ;)
Jedi54 09-02-2010, 11:29 AM Atilla: time to put up the details of the beach cruise?
looks like the poll is pretty conclusive.
The Reverend 09-02-2010, 11:36 AM \o/
Atilla 09-02-2010, 11:41 AM I'll start preppin' the details for the cruise.
You think people will be interested in hitting the beach afterwards too?? probably huh? hmmmm...
now to select a beach...:D:
Phil's 8 09-02-2010, 11:45 AM A nice cool drive along the ocean Ahh, sounds refreshing. I hope that infamous Cali traffic is not too bad.
Atilla 09-02-2010, 11:59 AM I don't think it'll be too bad tho considering it will be a sunday morning.
i will pray to the traffic gods for their blessing tho lol.
hmmm should we start it at 9am or 10am?? hmmmm
shadycrew31 09-02-2010, 11:59 AM that place with the firepits.
shadycrew31 09-02-2010, 12:00 PM 10am I'm driving from Santa Monica. Or hopefully Brea ;) LOL
Atilla 09-02-2010, 12:12 PM :lol: @ shady
DO WORK SON! Show up from Brea!! ;)
yeah, there's some pits in Bolsa Chica beach but there's also HB. HB gets poppin' at night while Bolsa is just a chill spot. Iono - i gotta hammer out the deetz
i doooo wanna hit up a couple bars in DTHB tho :D:
Jedi54 09-02-2010, 12:13 PM atilla: you planning on a stop at the beach or ending up on Main street?
Easy_E1 09-02-2010, 12:13 PM We're going to the beach. Beetches.
J03K1LLARX8 09-02-2010, 12:31 PM That football game was brutal! I was so freaken winded. Lol!
Atilla 09-02-2010, 12:48 PM atilla: you planning on a stop at the beach or ending up on Main street?
Ending up on mainstreet.
I plan on starting at mazda hq and going straight through HB into the edge of LB. Ending location will be Claim Jumpers in LB.
Then afterwards we can take a group to the pits at either Bolsa Chica or HB. That part i need to work out :dunno:
That football game was brutal! I was so freaken winded. Lol!
