Second Annual Martin Weiner Memorial Drive

I'm in

 

I'm in.

 

Bob this is turning into a fairly large group.

Can Marty's area accomodate 20 cars or so to revendous with him?

We need to discuss lunch timing and location also.

I left you a vm on your cell phone.

 

Was there mention of the date of this drive? Or did I miss it somewhere?

 

The date is 3-7-04, next Sunday.

So far the plan is to have a couple of groups meet in Thousand Oaks, Moorpark Rd exit, north about one half mile to Hillcrest. That will be about 10 am. Then it will be on to Marty's place in Montecito, arriving about 11 AM.

We will have lunch in Santa Barbara then some spirited driving taking the route that Bob mentioned above.

The lunch location will be determined but it will be around 12pm before the main drive.

More details to follow.

 

I was hoping you guys could stop by my house and pick me up, (I am 5 minutes off the freeway) to check out the shrine? My only concern is Cold Springs Tavern on Sunday there is a "Large" crowd of bikers (I dont have a problem with bikers but on Sudays there is about 100 standing around drinking, so the wait is really long, sometimes impossible to get a table for two, let alone 20+ people...) Plus the only place to park is half off and half on the road mostly in a dirt ditch some that would pose serious problems for guys with spoliers. Robert Im not trying to be a wet blanket but I have been up there recently on a Sunday and there was no way we were going to get a table so we had to leave. Piatti? San Ysidro Ranch? El Paseo??

 

FDC PRESENTS:

Santa Barbara Run
Sunday, March 7, 2004

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Enzo Run on Feb. 8th!!
The event was hugely successful – thanks for bringing out your beautiful cars!
In the usual FDC tradition, we are gearing up for yet another spirited run…
We are going to Santa Barbara/Montecito for some lunch and for those interested, up
to the Buellton/Solvang area for some exciting roads!

We will be meeting in Thousand Oaks in the parking lot on the corner of
Moorpark and Hillcrest (from LA, go on 405N to 101 towards Ventura, exit
Moorpark and turn right – head 0.5 miles north on Moorpark). We will be driving up to
Montecito to meet with our special out of town guest and heading directly to the restaurant.

Meeting time in Thousand Oaks: 10:00am
LA. Caravan Meeting time 9 :00: RSVP with Jean-Louis, [email protected] for location point.
OC Caravan Meeting time 8:00: RSVP with Byron, [email protected] for location point.
(RSVP immediately)

Please note: There is no cost for the drive, but each of you will be
responsible for your own lunch costs (plus tax/tip). We will be dining at
a casual restaurant in the Santa Barbara area.
Please be sure to RSVP to either the LA or OC Caravan so that we can get an accurate headcount.

All exotics are welcome, but if you are inviting your friends, please make sure you
RSVP for them as well.

Thanks!

“We drive and drive often”

 

Hey Rob, it is beginning to look like we will have too many cars to stop at your house on Sunday. If it does not work out this Sunday then I promise we will get a smaller group and make your house the destination for the drive.

On the other hand, if you post your address and directions here there may be some who will stop by on the way home in the afternoon.

 

I will check but the parking situation here has changed for the worse and I doubt it can accommodate 20cars.However,if not, there is a lengthy street along side the abandoned Miramar Beach hotel a few blocks from here along side of 101 which seems suitable.
I will check the area tomorrow and post again.
If someone will call me when you pass Carpenteria (5 mi S of here) at 805-565-1974 I will meet the caravan at 101 exit #93 -San ysidro rd.

 

No problem. Look forward to seeing you guys at a some future date. I am not sure I could hook up with you guys on the way up so hope you have a super drive.
