This sounds cool, but 7am in Malibu is really early for me. If enough ///M’ers want to go I would be down, but not my preference.

Early bird gets the worm! it is brutally early, but a) they're the 2 best regular car meets in LA, b) it's beautiful out there that early, and c) anytime other than that early most canyon roads are full of slow drivers/cops.

As a bonus you can also meet at Trancas/Malibu, hit the canyons, then finish at Supercar Sundays in Topanga. All done by 10am.

I want to say I'd be down for Malibu, however, 3 out of 3 times I've driven "drivers" roads in malibu, I ALWAYS get pulled over for no front plate. Thankfully never been ticketed, but still a process I don't like to deal with.

Anyone else have similar results in Malibu? I've driven 130K miles with no front plate, yet only been pulled over in malibu for it. Maybe I'm not going early enough.

I'm ok with almost every plan

I can bring some more friends, we are almost Mgang with 2xM6, E93 M3, E92 M3 and 2XM4.

The Trancas C&C has become more exclusive recently due to popularity; they've sent out emails to their subscribers requesting only rare classics and supercars in the lot, no more lowly BMWs, MBs, or 911s..

HerbNRacer · 11-29-2017, 11:27 AM

Let me put a map together and see what you all think. How would 12/17 work for everyone? The next few weekends after that will be the holidays and recovery... lol

I didn't even know there was an official email - can you point me in the right direction to get on that?

I normally just park in the 3rd carpark, across the road, through the gates, plenty of space and run into a few other e9X M3 owners in there before.

Got it, I'll do the same next time I go over.
I'm actually not on it myself, my boss is, if I can track it down from him I will PM it over to you!

12/17 is good!

if looking for suggestions, Mulholland Hwy to Latigo Cyn to PCH to Decker Canyon offers some fun driving and great views

HerbNRacer · 11-29-2017, 03:48 PM

How about this route, let’s call it the drunken bow tie... lol This takes us through most of the good parts without too much FWY or overlapping. We will be starting at 9:30 am Sunday 12/10 (getting on the road by 10am) at another Starbucks and ending at a brewery!

Looks legit

if it's 12/10 I'll join for sure! I guess I'll just have to wait and see what the rest of the party votes for

Well seams like no one has objections so we will do 12/10.

Zipper, You good for the 10th?

zipper228 · 11-30-2017, 09:26 AM

I previously committed to a different drive w/ a group from work the 10th already and I'd feel bad bailing on them. BUT they are going early and I just noticed you moved the start time to 9:30-10, so I should be able to catch you somewhere along the way (work drive ends at Neptunes Net in Malibu, at PCH and Yerba Buena so right along the route you mapped).
so YES, 12/10 is good!

Nice choice ending at Ladyface too

Sweet, sounds great!! PM me for my number so we can meet up mid route. I have never been to Ladyface but it looks pretty chill, and I’m always down to try new beers

P.S. The first post has been updted so you dont have to dig for the new map!!

HerbNRacer · 12-02-2017, 10:06 AM

Bringing it back to the top. Let’s get some more cars in on this!!! It will be the one of the year!

HerbNRacer · 12-04-2017, 05:15 PM

I got a couple more friends to join in and Zipper will be meeting us part way. This is going to be a beautiful day for a cruise, can't wait to see all the cars!!!

E92Gok · 12-06-2017, 01:50 PM

Hopefully all these crazy fires are contained by the time Sunday comes around and another one doesn't happen to ruin the canyon run! But until then let's take this post to the top!
