Here is the morning meeting place at Richie's Diner in Murrieta  <m

Arrive at Richie's Diner at 8:00 AM (red star with the "A" on it), Breakfast and then leave at 9:30 AM to Oak Glen. We will take the 60 Fwy (Moreno Valley Freeway) to Beaumont Avenue, Hwy 79) north to Oak Glen.   Oak Glen is the famous place for the apple festival, has many shoppes, services, and attractions, ect.

Please RSVP on this thread as Dave has made arrangements for breakfast at Richie's diner and has reserved spaces for 50 people.
Plan on arriving at Jo Ann's in Idyllwild around 1:30, after some spectacular scenery and So Cal Viper Club photography opportunities along the Pines to Palms Hwy.  Lunch is booked for 1:45 PM at Jo Ann's on the circle in Idyllwild.  Optional cruise south on 74 to Anza and then back to Temecula as desired.

The Denny's at the I-10 - Hwy 79 off ramp is shown below.  We will have to cross over Hwy 79 and park around Denny's to let eveyone meet up after traveling on the 10 from breakfast.  We then get on Hwy 79 which turns into Beaumont Avenue on the other side of I-10, and head north to Oak Glen.

Don't worry,  It won't take much arm twisting to get the Vipers out for this.



We missed you on Sunday Hemotox.
I've been really busy the last few days and haven't had a chance to post pictures from Malibu.  It was a warm sunny day with 16 people for breakfast. 
I'll get pictures posted tonight.

Just curious if PCH VIPER will be teaching and leading a "High Speed Driving Session" from Idyllwild to Cahuilla Creek Casino on the back side of the Pumpkin Run???    <

Its hard to teach from the back of the line. 

But I'll do my best to keep up!
