Post Oct. 25 (Sunday) Mt. Baldy Run -- Glendora Ridge Road

Mt. Baldy Run -- Glendora Ridge Road

It is one of the most beautiful canyon roads in Southern California. If you haven't done this, you have to try it!!! It is an endless tight turns and beautiful mountain canyon road. You will be able to appreciate your cars' amazing handling characteristics!!!

And after the run, we'll head to Eddie's new beautiful house for awesome outdoor Korean BBQ!!! (If you are joining us just for the BBQ, please PM Eddie for his address.)



Date: Sunday, October 25, 2009
Drive: 1pm ~ 3pm
BBQ @ Eddie's: 4pm ~ (until we have someone passed out by the BBQ grill with a food coma)

Meeting Location: Starbucks -- 665 E Foothill Blvd # B, Claremont, CA 91711
(It is located on the North/West corner of Foothill Blvd. & Claremont Blvd. There is a Chevron gas station right by it.)

Does this mean your car lives?

I wish I could join you for one of the few times you drive your car, but I probably won't be able to make it. I still say you need to make it to WCLM. Screw work.

Have the fire departments finally re-opened the road? I tried to go up there a couple weeks ago and it was blocked off. Talked to the "guard" and he said that it would be a while before they re-opened it due to concerns over fire, rockslides, rain, and mudslides.

Just called the Mt. Baldy Ski Resort at (909) 981-3344, and Mt. Baldy road is open, but they're not sure about Glendora Ridge Rd. Put me down as maybe.

Thanks.

I think I can do the Korean BBQ but I have to be on the road around 5:00pm back to San Diego as I have a concert there Sunday night.

We will be at Cal Speedway/Fontana before the run.

Sounds exciting (have driven on Glendora Ridge road in the Lotus). Put me down for a possible maybe. Will also be coming from Cal Speedway (we work on Randy's run group, while he works while we run).
