Sunday Cruise. Palms to Pines run. A sampling of San Diego's back country roads. The cruise starts on Coronado Island, and runs south along the Silver Strand, a small strip of land connecting the Island to Imperial Beach. We will be driving by Hotel Del Coronado, the Amphib base, the naval radio station and where they are filming the new HBO series, John from Cincinnati. Then through Imperial Beach to I-5 south towards the border and Tijuana. East on 905. North on 805. Then we get off to some twisty roads along Lyons Valley. Eventually we will hook up through Guatay and Pine Valley, where the terrain will vary from desert to mountainous pines. Through the old gold mining town of Julian. Santa Ysabel. Highway 79. Palomar Mountain. Eventually working our way west to I-15. Our drive will end around I-15 and 76.

I am interested, so you can put me on the list

[Vantage]

Count me in.

[Socal_Mini]

I'm interested (though I'm driving a Mini now - hopefully I'll have a Lotus by then) Is it open or only lotus? Who is the sanctioning body of the event? Is there a URL for the event?

[knucklehead]

Count me in please!

Jacob

[Robert Puertas]

cool.

[CALtd]

I am in for the evening activities, but will be on the water during the day.

Yes please - count me in.

Any chance of finding somewhere to watch the Monaco GP over breakfast in San Diego?

It is a great restaurant for carnivores. I know we have several Vegetarians in our midst, so that would proabably would not be the best choice.

[maagjr]

Cool Jacob told me about and Milton is In so... I like the Idea count me In

[shokwaves]

I'm pretty sure I'm in.

Thanks.

They probably do it for the elise to keep weight down.... Not a bad Idea!

[gameson]

I am in as well.

[Randy Chase]

When it gets closer and we have a real list of entrants, we will also poll everyone for dinner/breakfast/lodging/etc and see if we can't make a good choice (or in the case of lodging, suggestion).

Dinners for a large group are always interesting. Different eating requirements. A place that can seat 30-40 or more easily. Not too loud that you can't talk. Not too small that 40 people will overwhelm them and service will take 4 hours. And parking... we need to be able to park the cars in a safe and secure place. Not a place with valet only... or parallel parking only.

Mike, any idea what time the F1 race is going to air?

[Gideon]

Interested as well...

[Hayseed]

Randy,

I'm interested in both driving events. I'll be on extended travel for business through the end of March and most of April. I'll be off-line so remember me when you make the list.

Thanks,

Mike

[dbisbee]

Put me in please.
