Soooooo, Whats everyone doing either Wednesday or Thursday morning? I was thinking of taking a trip up to Idllwild and was looking for people to roll with. I know it's kind of far but I'm going regardless. I need to get out. I'll shift my day depending on if anyone wants to roll and when they are available. Lemme know.
The Route starts in Hemet/Valle Vista and takes the 74 and 243 all the way up.

IT'S FUNNNNNN....
except when you take a jager shot and get spanked by a wooden paddle from some chick that has a swing like bonds when he's on the juice

Alright party people....We really need to get a cruise going. I had the opportunity to take a drive up to Idyllwild this morning and all I can say is WOW. The curves on that stretch of road are freaking amazing! I can honestly say I've never driven a more fun section of road. And, the scenery is beautiful up there, seriously, beautiful. I managed to snap a few pics while I was up there. I got some pretty funny looks as people drove by and I'm getting all low taking pictures of my 8.

I'm up for pretty much anything. We can head to a restaurant for realz this time or we can take a drive somewhere. I wouldn't recommend the Idyllwild drive for a meet on Wednesday, it takes a couple hours to get there and up and down. I'll start looking for some local roads if you guys want to do a cruise. Let's get a consensus among everyone and then go from there.

Corona meet
I just took a drive around Lake Matthews this weekend, a little curvy, decent drive. Just kind of short for a drive. I don't know of any other winding roads around

Have you guys considered a cruise on Ortega hwy?
there's a great mexican restaurant in Lake Elsinore called Las Palmas where you could have lunch/ dinner afterwards.
I have a buddy who used to live in Elsinore so we'd hit up Ortega from time to time.
That restaurant is a Little whole in the wall but its cheap and good.

I think it would be insane amounts of fun if the road were entirely closed so I could use the oncoming lanes as well...but it is just downright scary in some parts, especially those with no rails!

I took Ortega a few months ago to get to a buddy's wedding (in temecula) and had exactly that happen to me.
Fortunately it was more tolerable in my bimmer then in the 8 in slow traffic.
I prefer early morning runs when there aren't as many soccer moms (or cops) on those roads.
now we're TALKIN'!
