Default Angeles Crest Cruise, Sunday May 15th!

Time for our yearly Angeles Crest Cruise! This is the best cruise of the year, don't miss it!

The plan is to meet up at Vons in Tujunga at 11:45a.m. The address is:

7789 Foothill Blvd
Tujunga, CA 91042

We'll leave the lot at 12:30p.m.

Here is the route we will take. The front half of Angeles Crest is closed, so we're taking Big Tujunga to Upper Big Tujunga and then to Angeles Crest. We took this route last year and it was beautiful with basically no traffic

After we finish up on Angeles Crest, we're going to go to Fuddruckers at the Ontario Mills Mall for a late lunch/early dinner. The address for Fuddruckers is:

4423 E Mills Cir
Ontario, CA 91764

We had over 60 cars at GMR last month, and I'm hoping to beat that for Angeles Crest. See you all on the 15th! Original thread and info updated here.

ACH doesn't currently go all the way through because of this:



Because of that, I'm changing the route to this. Times will remain the same. Original thread here. See you all on Sunday!

Alright, Upper Tujunga is closed, so we're taking this route.

It should be relatively empty and is a fantastic drive. We'll take it in as far as we can go and then turn around. I've been looking for local food places, but none of them are big enough to hold all of us. If anyone has suggestions for food in or around the Tujunga are with a large parking lot, please let me know.

As far as the weather is concerned, it looks like it's going to be nice with no rain in the forecast. See you all Sunday!

Raining very hard down here in Anaheim. Can anyone closer to Angeles Crest tell me what the weather is like up there?

I need to make a decision in the next hour or so and I'm leaning towards postponing right now. It's pretty wet down here...

It's really too bad everyone bolted. The cops were only issuing fix it tickets for no front plate. No big deal. The road was AWESOME - no traffic. It was a really fun drive!

Didn't make it (was dropping my car back onto the k-member and trans). Saw some pics in the official picture thread:

What part of Angeles Crest is the bridge located at? I've driven up that road, eaten at Newcombs Ranch and have never seen that bridge.
