where is the meet?

christian370z 11-17-2010 03:05 PM

I have never been to GMR and have a bunch of friends who prefer it to Malibu roads but it is also very inconvenient for me as well. We will play the weather by ear I guess, maybe the rain will move in later in the day which could allow us to still run if people are willing.

Fab: The meet is at Malibu Country Mart (23387 Pacific Coast Highway, Malibu CA), all information is in the first post of the thread if you need anything else!

Do you know how far I have to drive to get to the Malibu cruise?!?! Probably a mile lol. I think I am doing the GMR run since I know a friend doing it in his E36 M3.

Alright guys, after discussing a change up with fellow members, I am pleased to propose that we:

-Postpone the run until next saturday

-Do the cruise at GMR for a change of scenery and to take the big commute off of some of our fellow enthusiasts.

The run will go like this: meet at 7am somewhere at the base of Asuza Canyon Rd (to be determined) and we will take a route from there. This will be held on saturday the 27th of November and is open to anyone willing to come.

Plan on roughly 30-40 miles of driving and some very technical roads for those who have not yet been. I have done some work researching a nice route and believe I found one so it should be great! Please let me know your thoughts.

not sure if there's any route planning per se, GMR is typically one stretch of road; everybody uses the same route, or so i think. very simple, just be careful of the cop station at the exit (or entrance if we do it backwards...)

edit: yeah, there is one very popular route to take. there are some variations, but they aren't nearly as interesting as the 'typical GMR route'.

anyway if it's GMR, i might be able to go, but right now i'm so in over my head with studies i don't have any large chunk of free time available.

I wasn't going to make it out this weekend. Next weekend... If I have time, I'll go.

Is the 7am meeting time good or should it be adjusted? I heard that GMR has less traffic most of the time than Malibu but 7am is probably best from our last couple cruises.

It's completely new to me so I guess that statement only applies to me then haha. Are you familiar with the roads in that area?


I looked around for a good meeting place and it appears that the Edgewood Shopping Center fits the bill. Large parking lot just south of I210 which is what I assume most people will be using to come in.

GMR should be a nice change.
