2017 New Year's Day Run

Post by Steve Simmons »

Yeah, it's that time again!

What: 2017 New Year's Fun Run
Where: Meet at The Commons, 4799 Commons Way, Calabasas, CA 91302
When: Sunday, January 1, 2017. Meet at 9AM, depart at 10:00 AM SHARP!

Once again, a bunch of Vintage Motoring gearheads will gather on January 1st at "The Commons" on Calabasas Road, just off the 101 freeway. We meet on the east side of the lot near Williams Sonoma.

As always, this is just a fun run and you're responsible for yourself. There is no organization and no leader. We are just a group of like-minded enthusiasts who enjoy driving together. Traditionally this is a fairly relaxed fun run.

THE ROUTE: Our route will take us along Mulholland Highway from East to West, then down PCH and up Encinal Canyon to Charmlee Park.

Lunch usually follows, location to be determined!

What a great drive! Beautiful day, a lot of great people and great cars. My wife and I had a very enjoyable time.

Did anyone happen to catch the web site of the photog that was set up near the overlook on Mulhulland?

Looking forward to the next get-together.
