Nope! Well, sorta lol. I work up in Orange County during the week, and go to sd on the weekends.

Any excuse to go to GMR haha

DAEMANO 03-20-2014 01:20 AM

With enough notice and an early start, I'd be willing to come up from O.C.

SP86 03-20-2014 01:22 AM

I'm up for it, I drive it about twice a month as of right now. Mainly Sundays. As I'm off SunxMon

Sterz 03-20-2014 01:32 AM

Would definitely be down!

juliog 03-20-2014 01:32 AM

If I go during the day, I usually do San Gabriel Cyn (blue), then go up and down the backside (half upper red section) of GMR a couple times.

I don't like driving too spiritedly along the frontside of GMR because of traffic (bicycles, cars, bikes..). It's also common to see bikes and cars go over the yellow lines because of the decreasing radius corners..

In any case, canyons are best driven at night..

jebuwh 03-20-2014 03:06 AM

Excellent. Well let's decide on a day and do this. I went last Saturday afternoon and literally saw 2 cars the whole time. Weekend nights you usually get lots of clowns up there. But I'm game whenever! Throw out some dates!

whoster 03-20-2014 05:06 AM

I'd be down for a Saturday!

guslucatero 03-20-2014 12:40 PM

sunday night would be great i think.....lets wait for the answer for Jebuwh

peterk121 03-20-2014 03:29 PM

I'd be down. I live in the area and do gmr runs at night usually during the weekdays around 8-9. I usually go up with a couple of friends.

jebuwh 03-20-2014 03:33 PM

sounds like Saturdays/sundays work for most people. Saturday would be good for me. does it work for most people during the day on a Saturday?

guslucatero 03-20-2014 03:38 PM

during the day on Saturdays isn't that great, because there are lot of people with bikes that go up there, and I can cause an issue.
I think it would be better more like dusk or evening...

whoster 03-20-2014 04:12 PM

Post a poll, jebuwh!

guslucatero 03-20-2014 04:28 PM

yup...a poll with be the best option....

wu_dot_com 03-20-2014 05:07 PM

im down, as soon as my car CEL gets fix. just dropped it off this morning. they said the left bank is running rich, sounds very similar to the idle problem other members been reporting.

G.I.Choe 03-20-2014 06:15 PM

This would be my first time going to any kind of FT86 meet/drive, and I'd love to be there. I live right by the entrance to Angeles Crest, so I'd be happy to tackle a new road.

jebuwh 03-20-2014 06:59 PM

Do I need to post that in a new post? Ha. And actually Saturday around mid day usually is free of cars and bikes. That really would work best for me. But we'll figure out out. So just start a new thread with a poll right?

whoster 03-20-2014 09:28 PM

yeah, I think you do have to create a new thread... and then you can ask the mods to merge threads?

jebuwh 03-20-2014 10:38 PM

Added poll. Get to voting and let's make an official meet!!! Stoked for this.

86nub 03-20-2014 10:57 PM

i'd be down for this!!

keithgold 03-21-2014 01:07 AM

Down! should be cool to see a line of the twins doing canyon runs

ptm 03-21-2014 01:58 AM

Count me in

Should this be scheduled mid April?

peterk121 03-21-2014 01:05 PM

Angeles crest highway on 3/23/14 this sunday around 11am - 3pm. pm me for details, its only me and a couple of friends, but if you're willing to cruise, the more the merrier :), just don't be stupid. (no burnouts, no racing, etc. . .) we usually meet up prior to the cruise at a boba shop or coffee,

CSG Mike 03-21-2014 01:12 PM

We'll need a driver's meeting first.

Moetivegt86 03-21-2014 05:43 PM

GMR canyon cruise interest. With Poll!!!
 
We'll first have to decide what kind of driving we'll be doing. Anytime during the day it's hard to push the car at all because of the number of people, crossing the double lanes can be dangerous. If we're actually doing runs we should schedule it at night.

Day time cruise or night time run.

I'm down for either one.

^^^...exactly what he said!!!

JS + BRZ 03-21-2014 05:51 PM

I always don't go for any type of day time canyon runs.

If this is at night, I'm so down.

I went to ACH last night for a little drive. In total, I spotted like 5 cars going up and down. It was around 10:30.

jebuwh 03-21-2014 07:53 PM

I say we do a Saturday night. But literally I went last Saturday about 2pm and there was absolutely no one. Same with the weekend before that. Up to the vote I guess. We can make this a regular thing even.

Aibarra400 03-21-2014 11:29 PM

im in for tomorrow night

MikesFRS 03-22-2014 08:45 PM

Did this happen?

juliog 03-22-2014 09:14 PM

went down gmr around 730 tonight. saw 7 cops and followed one cop half way down gmr. didn't get bothered by the cops but just fyi.

Moetivegt86 03-23-2014 02:25 AM

Yea on my way up last night I passed a cop coming down. It's always hot now :/

Never have I seen a cop on or in the vicinity there of.. sun"day" is the ticket folks. If majority still favors Saturday by the first get together this thread creates; I'll host the Sunday drive(s). That's when I go anyway so no harm.

jebuwh 03-23-2014 01:30 PM

So I think we should plan for this weekend. I went for a quick run by myself yesterday around 3. I saw one bike, and 2 cars driving. Zero police. I say we go for it Saturday. As long as we stay in our lane and don't get out of hand crazy we will be fine.

frsgal 03-23-2014 09:57 PM

Did this run last night with @juliog... tons of fun. :D
