Wow, you guys must like worms! (I don't go to sleep until about 4:00am when the worms 

must be getting up)



Talking with my pasenger we were thinking of leaving the area more around 11:00 am. 

375 miles at 70 mph (ya right!) is 5 1/2 plus at most 2 hours in stops, we'd be there around 

6:30.  That still early enough for us.  But we may consider leaving earlier if there is no one 

else that wants to leave that late.  I mostly want to avoid be in the LA area 6:00am-9:30am.

That also depends on route of course. 



Shane what route are you San Diego folks going to take?  And what time will you be at the 

I-15 check point? 



I checked out  these routes on a map program:

all starting at I-10 and I-15 in Ontario. 



10  210  134  5  198  101  69  is  361 miles

10  210  134  5  46  101  69 is 363 miles

10  210  134  101 69 is 388 miles

10  210  134  101  1  is 375 miles



Of course coast hwy is slower but it's on the edge of the world!

1TO9 MPG over 375 miles is alot of gas but would be a gas!

Yo Curt & Others Going to Monterey from SoCal...,

I'm glad someone is thinking IN ADVANCE for a change! :-]

Yea, we'll be going up from Huntington Beach. I wanted to leave early - 

like 5AM Thursday! Any takers? Up I-405 to I5 and then whatever!



While I'm still married to PCNC what are other local chapters gonna do 

if anything on caravaning???????????

I'd be glad to join any group along the way. It sounds good to me.
