Yep, great thing to note Teresa, thanks. The same holds true if you book after the 10th. As long as rooms are available, they will probably still honor our group rate, but there is no gurantee after the 10th of availability.

"Breakfast on the Beach" - Coogies Beach Cafe, Malibu
Saturday morning, we'll be making a run up the Pacific Coast Highway from our hotel, to grab a bite of breakfast and take in the beatiful scenery of Malibu. Then we'll hit the Canyons with a route courtesy of SCMM and head to the Petersen. We are meeting the SCMM guys at Coogies at 8:00-8:15AM.

Glad to hear it Trace! :)

So far the confirmed are:

Dan/Marilyn
Scott
Teresa/Mark (1 Mini?)
Jon/Patty
Todd
Robert Ballard, the owner of www.TwistyBitz.com (Local/SoCal, friend of Jon/Patty)

And hopefully a few stragglers out there that are on the fence that haven't spoken up just yet!

I'm still in discussion with members of both http://www.scmm.org/ and http://moala.org/ for them to join us at possibly both the Petersen and/or a run/dinner Friday and Saturday. One of them has a monthly car show at a local coffee shop they attend the last Sunday morning of the month, so thats something thats also a possibility for us on Sunday morning as well.

Still hammering out some of those details, but it's shaping up to be a lot of fun I think. :)

Just got this from the President of the SCMM -
It looks like we're getting good responses from my club members on doing an all day social with you guys. Our VP and Roadmaster, Craig Degarmo, is also coming up with a fun twisty route in between Coogie's and the Petersen - it will be a shortened version of our "Mother Of All Twisties" run we did last year. Lots of fun. We also coming up with some ideas for places to eat after the Petersen. I will give you a headcount later, but after just one day posting we have 15 people interested.

Come on, i know there are a few of you out there on the fence about making this road trip. It's going to be a fun one!

*bump*, one week to go!

For those making the run, we'll meet at the Starbucks just off the I10 and the 101.

Starbucks Map Link
10030 W Mcdowell Rd # 160
Avondale, AZ 85392
(623) 907-0917

Meet at 3PM, depart at 3:15 or whenever we all arrive and are ready to hit the road! Be gassed up, radios in hand, and ready to have a good time :)

Saturday with some local Mini owners is looking to be a real fun full day. Starting with breakfast in Malibu on the PCH, followed by a nice twisty canyon run, then over to the Petersen Auto Museum for a couple of hours. Then we'll have a nice spot to run to for dinner and hopefully a gorgeous sunset overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
