Default Re: Meet in Southern California?

For Sunday at 10 AM. Yes, this Sunday!

Directions Directions Directions!

Hopefully the maps will post.

Arriving south on 15:

Exit on Aero Drive. Turn right and head west. Aero Drive will head slightly uphill and then level off. No speeding since there is a police station on the corner of Aero Drive and Ruffin Road (Aero levels out at this point). Continue to head west another three quarters mile or so. There should be open land on your right and then there will be hangars and aircraft to your right. At the next intersection turn right (head north). You will be turning onto John Montgomery Dr. John Montgomery Dr turns into Sandrock to the south of Aero so don't let the Sandrock signs fool you.

Head north on John Mont. The road turns sharply left but if you head straight you will enter the parking lot of Casa Machada. On the west end of the parking lot is a brown two story building. Casa Machada is upstairs and you can reach it by either going inside or using the stairs outside.

If you miss Aero Dr. then continue to Friars Road exit. Get off 15 and turn left onto Friars (head east). Immediately after crossing over 15 and at the next light get back on 15 north. Stay in the on ramp lane because it will turn into the exit for Aero. If you miss Aero then continue to 8 east or west and loop back around. If you miss 8 then you are truly doomed since you almost have to drive to Mexico before being able to turn around.

Arriving south on 5:

Take the 805 south lanes. There are 50 lanes for each highway so be prepared to move over a number of lanes. Head south to 8 and take the exit lanes east. There are two dedicated exit lanes for 8 east and there will be an additional lane that splits off to the right for 8 west. Stay in the right lane of the 8 east lanes since both lanes remain exit lanes once on 8 and the right lane is a dedicated on ramp lane for 15 north. Get on 15 north to Aero Drive and follow the above directions. Note that the on ramp to 15 north is a sharp curve so have a blast zipping around on it.

If you miss 805 then continue to 8 east and be prepared to go for miles before you hit 15 north. If you miss 8 then much like above be prepared to enter Mexico before being able to backtrack.

Sorry about taking so long to get the maps up but I could only get Google and Mapquest to post links to their maps and I wanted an actually map to draw on. Took some time to find one.
