Default SoCal/West Coast V's August 16th, SNAKE RUN!

I know there's a lot of V guys in the SoCal area and I wanted to extend an invitation to a Sunday Snake Run that I have lead for the past couple months. The day usually starts with a meet up at the Promenade in Westlake Village at about 11-11:30am where the guys group up and talk cars for a little while.

Then we ride out past the Lake and back into Decker Canyon which takes us to Mulholland where the famous "Snake" or Rock Store Run is. You can learn more about the Rock Store here: www.rockstorephotos.com

After spending some time at the lookout point and getting our Snake runs in if you want, the group generally decides on a location for lunch, either in Malibu or in Agoura.

However one of the coolest things about the Rock Store/Snake is the photography in the final uphill turns, shot by Paul Herold, a friend of mine. His exposures are outstanding action shots that can be purchased for about $20 or less on his flickr site.

Here are some shots of my ride going thru the Snake:

I know its a little late, but I wanted to see if any V guys wanted to come out for a little fun run. Nothing is set in stone and its pretty close to where I live so its really laid back, not a huge club meeting with rules and an all day affair.

Nice vid, your V sounds beautiful. Do those guys want to come out and run the snake?

If you go over to the Cad forum, there are a few trying to put something together.
