The time is flexible. If DesignoSLK attends, thats a 4 hour drive, later in the day may be better. Lets wait on the meet time for a few days. We need to consider the folks that travel the furthest.

Cool. I'm flexible on the meet time. There's also a forum member in Henderson, Nevada but I forgot his username.

I figure about a 3 hour drive with stops along the way.

The meet up point is the Angeles Forest information center (a shack just north of Ranch Rd to the right) as you enter the forest.

Add your name to the list if your interested in the ride.

25 Nov will not work for me, I'll be devouring turkey in Crescent City, CA. 9 Dec works for us with maybe a late morning, early afternoon start. It'd be nice to clean the car up after the trip down, but not detrimental.

Eddy, I'll see what I can do to get in touch with the Henderson member.

I found the member Eddy mentioned by doing an advanced search for "Henderson" in the Member List. Then sent Gayle280 an email. Hopefully they will respond to their email.

You'll probably have better chance of these folks checking their email then stopping by to grace us with their presence...hehe.

I edited the first post with the address of the information center, and other info.

I PM'd both cyberdrakon and 3-pointed-star but have not heard from them.

I did PM cyberdrakon a few days ago and he may be busy that day. He will post inthis thread if he is able to make it.

I wouldn't mind showing up since it is a Saturday. The meeting place is about 65 miles from me.

That's cool Sweet Slk. Do come.

That's about how far I am too from the meeting area (I figure about an hour's drive, presuming no traffic jams). Which SLK do you drive? Would you mind updating the vehicle and location on your profile?

ADDENDUM: SweetSLK, I'm about 55 miles south from the meeting place (based on Google maps). If we're close to each other we can meet and caravan up highway 57 to the 210. Lake Forest is between Irvine and Mission Viejo.

Hope you can make it Sweet Slk, the gathering time will be determined at the end of the month to accommodate people that have a long haul. I'm ~30 miles and it takes me ~40 minutes in cruse control @ 65.
