Hmm, if I remember correctly, you said you like driving. So I am giving you the option to drive.

Or you can use your charm so they can get you a Gallardo as a loaner for the weekend...

I know you can do that!!! Even Patrick can't resist you!

whatdya say, ladies? agoura at 8am? or should we meet in LA?
At 8pm on Saturday. there are at lease 1/2 dozen rides starting from Agoura/ TO area. There are not many exotics except for the occational enzo. The Ferrari group is usually heading up Decker from TO at 10:30am.

I would prefer to start at a later time, when the roads clear out from the riders. While there will be some beach traffic, most will be on the roads which are a more direct route.

So in case you decide to go at an early time, here is the route I will be riding.


Potrero to Los Posas to PCH and up Mulholland down Decker

From the shop west on Agoura Rd to a left on Lindero and around The Lake to a left on Westlake Blvd. A quick jog to a right on Potrero, left on Lake Sherwood Dr, around the lake and REGROUP at the stop sign at Potrero. Left back onto Potrero and through Hidden Valley. REGROUP at Potrero and Reino (the bottom of the hill just past Wendy Dr at the stop sign). Right onto Reino to the first stop and left again onto Potrero. Down Potrero CAREFULLY, REGROUP at Lewis Rd and Potrero. Left on Lewis to a left onto Los Posas and some 2x2 paceline practice on the way to P.C.H. South on P.C.H. in a well organized pace line, arriving with the group intact at Mulholland. Up Mulholland and REGROUP at the Three Bitches water stop after a right on to Decker. Continue on Decker down to Westlake, CAREFULLY to another REGROUP at the bottom of the hill at Carlisle Cyn Rd. Carry on through the stop sign at Potrero and Westlake Blvd. Right on Triunfo, around The Lake and back to Sundance via Agoura Road.

+1. Calabasas is new, but Ritchie is top notch. I worked with him before and he is highly recommended. You guys are spoiled, you have Ritchie in the north, Qais (former South Bay Lotus, good for non warranty service) and Allen in central.

Yes, TO service department is great. I had a few issues with my car (warranty) and they took care of it no hassle. And the mechanic has an accent!

Right, no testosterone.

Actually this was the route Hal drove on the meet last month, except they went up Kanan and not Mulholland.

I took my car to calabasas, and then the alarm kept on going off when I locked it. Coming back from the Dr. I stopped at TO, Rick out right away, checked all the sensors and found when Calabasas pulled the front fuse cal of the car, it was not put on properly. I was done in 5/10 min. They know what there are doing.

Rach, if your car is not ready Saturday, I can pick you up.

Are we meeting at someone's house, or some other location like gas station, coffee stop.....

i wouldn't be able to go at 11:30 for very long, as I have a meeting in
chatsworth at 1:30.
If you want to met at 10:30 that is OK too, was not sure what others schedules were the rest of the day. My days is somewhat flexible, I just have things to do around the house, that I can do anytime.

I'd really like to come, but I'm afraid I didn't understand those directions. Is there a good spot along your route that is close to west LA where I can meet you? And what time is it going to be, after all?
