Been looking for this thread every day for the last week!

 

Rocky Phillips (Toymaker) and myself will have our own caravan coming in from the Big valley. See you there!

 

Sounds like a plan! Ill have to meet you at the 605/60 interchange as I am picking up John i n Cerritos off the 605. Ill ring you for a meeting time

 

I'll be there. Can we go faster than 45mph this time?

 

Btt, Any others for Mooneyes caravan?

 

Any recomendations for a good Friday night eatin'tavernpubbinbar kinda place nearby?
Gonna get lodging and need within crawling distance.....

 

There's a slight chance you may have a small crew from SLC make the journey. Plans are in the works.

 

whats a good time to get there? Haven't been in a while, but I remember traffic backed up to the 605 waiting to get in, only had 2 lanes open. Have they fixed that?

 

My oil is changed and I'm ready to go

 

The east entrance is for pre-registered, which can handle e/b and w/b traffic. The west entrance is for those that didn't register but they can handle 2 lines. If traffic backs upto the frwy, the police may flag you out of the left turn lane that enters the east entrance. In that case, you go down to the next signal (west entrance) and make a u-turn and head back to the east entrance. I pre-register and never had to wait. The line for unregistered gets pretty long.

Bob,

As always we wish we could join you but we have to get up to the show for vendor set-up. We'll see you there.

 

See ya there.....U bring'n the donuts?

 

I'm probably driving modern. What's a good time to get there for general parking and not too much of a wait?

 

The Route 66 Roadhouse Tavern is just 5 miles north in Duarte, also has a couple of affordable hotels within crawling distance for those out of town-ers that are coming down on Friday

 

I guess I'm a little confused here?? I'm coming south on the 605, to Arrow then Live Oak Ave, but I have only seen a north gate. Seems like I have been in line with both registered cars and non in the past. I'm registered for the event, Is there an easier way I'm missing? Thanks in advance

 

Maggie's Pub or Geezers which are down a mile down Telegraph in SFS.

 

I can...if wanted!

 

Both gates are on the north side. One is east of the main entrance,which is at the signal.

 

I have always tried to get there before 7am.

 

Thanks Bad Bob, That now makes sense to me!

 

If Im remembering correctly they have the left lane cones set up or something and you make a left across the street into the event so you dont have to wait in that long line. We always pass that and go way down and flip a U-turn to get in line. See ya there!

 

Ill good for finishing off 2-3!

 

Thanks!

 

Hey Eric,

Thanks for the extra info, it's really appreciated! I'm sure it will be much easier this time for us. For some reason in the past, I ended up waiting the long line, even tho I was registered......dummy me!

C-You there!

Jim

 

Bumpers!!!

 

I'm out.

 

Oh!.....it's like that now? Gonna miss you.

 

Same here
