Happy New Year everyone,

I am planning the 2ND annual SoCal ROC Meet. I would like to hold it the same weekend as last year! Saturday, March 17, 2007 (which is also St Patrick's Day if you are Irish). I know if all that came last year and the members that we have gained since that time come out, we can blow the national meet record, which they beat us by 1 owner, out of this hemisphere!

I will post lodging info if you would like to make a whole weekend of it later but for now the plan is to take a poll of who is interested in coming and bold enough to commit to it now! I AM! We could also meet at the Saturday morning Auto Show in Irvine for coffee from 7:00 to 9:00 if you care too?

From there, we will meet for the photo op at Capistrano State Beach on PCH at 10:00 Saturday morning then drive ,in trail, to Dana Point Harbor for the impromptu Ridgeline Truck Show and eat. I will be asking my usually partners to assist in anything we can do to make it more fun than the last time. BRING YOUR TALK ABOUTS FOR THE CARAVAN!

Please vote the poll and post any suggestions you may have. This is a regional meet and greet but if you are passing through, come on down and join the fun. All Ridgeline Owners are welcome!

Yep! It’s that time again to gather all of our SoCal friends together again but more importantly to also meet & greet all of our new members as well. I’d really like to see us nail down a solid itinerary this go around as we've learned so much from our very first meet & greets of last year. We've got a few very professional photographers that hopefully can donate their time to this great event and I’ll have plenty of time to whittle some cool give away billet goodies by then. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!! ……. :p

I was planning to drive out that day (3/17) since the kids are starting spring break. We will be staying at Disneyland 3/17 - 3/20. But I don't know if we will make the meet in time :( It means taking an extra day off for both of us to travel Friday...and if I take a new job before then....:rolleyes:

Tony, keep us posted!! I really, really wanna be there!

I mentioned this meet to my wife, and she seems interested in going. We have some friends in Bellflower, CA, so we might as well make a weekend out of it! I love the drive out there anyway... so why not?

Can you post some lodging info and addresses of the areas where we'll be meeting? I want to see if it'll be easier to find a hotel nearby or stay with our friends. We're not a 100% definite attendee yet, but certainly over 50%. Maybe we can get a couple more Arizona RL's out there!

Hey Rocky, I will be taking the scenic route drive down there since I live on PCH and Bellflower. I will be researching the hotel and motels for lodging and post it by Wednesday I hope. I'm headed to Iowa on Thursday for the weekend and I want to try and get that done before I leave.

Hello Mr. Tony! Well, looks like it will be more of a YES for me to meet up with you guys for the 2nd SoCal Roc Meet. So far it looks good for me to have a 3 day weekend. Im just not sure if i want to head down to san Diego Friday and wake my Butt up VERY early, and head north to meet up for breakfast or car show by 7am. Either way, i should be able to meet up with you all and enjoy this time with all you "RIDGERS". This would be my first SoCal Roc Meet, but not my first Ridge meet nor will it be my last! I will be traveling about 375 miles. Mayeb more if i decide to go to SD friday instead of lodging near the meet area. Well, if possible, could you PM or post hotel info, or at least decent places to stay where most of you would be staying. Also, address of places we would be going to. If that hasnt be done yet. Thanks again and hope to see all of you again(for those i met up in the 1st Roc meet in Santa Cruz.

As Far as Meeting up in Irvine, im not too sure about. If im in San Diego, i think it would be closer for me to just meet up at the beach on PCH by the 10am time slot. A ride from San Diego to the beach should be roughly 1 hour drive, pending traiffic. But, if i decide to room in a nearby area by irvine or the beach, then i might consider the EARLY bird cup of java! But traveling from Turlock(between modesto and merced) is about 6-7 hours or so to san diego, pending on traffic for FRIDAY! But definately count me in. 1 way or another, ill make it to at least the PCH beach before the dana point. put on about 400 miles 1 way would be a good run for my truck. i only have 8k miles on it since June 3rd, 2006 of purchase. So, a good break in the long haul will definately wake my truck up a bit. I am going to be in San diego on February 16th to the 19th, then heading to Lom Poc to pick up my sister and brother in law(president's day 19th feb) then heading back to Anaheim for our little Disney Trip we had planned out for 3 days(20th-22nd). "SEASON HOLDERS!" Gotta love Disney, not matter how old! haha! So, if any of you are around, or i you see the BLUE RIDGE SPECIAL roling around, give me a HORN beep! Ill do the same if i notice any of you SOCallers .

Rocky, still thinking of going?? If so, email me.

Great news! I'm taking a couple vacation days in March and driving out for the SoCal meet! My wife's best friend lives in Bellflower, so she may not come to the event. At least I won't have to make the 6-hour drive from Phoenix alone. My wife and I are going to start looking for hotels somewhere between Cerritos and Dana Point. If we find any smokin' deals, I'll pass along the info. Has the schedule changed much since the first posting? Or are we still looking at: 7AM - Coffee in Irvine; 10AM - Photos at Capistrano Beach; then an impromptu Ridgeline truck show at Dana Point Harbor. What the current head count? I'm coming from 400 miles away... anyone else coming from so far?

Hello all,
Sorry I have been swamped with training issues at work, and gearing up for my off duty work with the Dodgers and MLB this coming season. I will be spending Friday morning researching lodging for the group and camping locations. Ron if you or Dan can assist with the camping locations, I can work on the hotel lodging. Those who are coming from outside SoCal Glad to have ya! Please vote on the poll if you are coming. I want to do name buttons with Screen and true names and include your companions.

Don't worry....everyone will chime in..SoCal do have the most meets in ROC or someone is always planning something to get everyone togther and hang out. Summer is coming up and i'm pretty sure there will be lots of meets coming up soon. Keep an eye out or someone will let you know :D

Do a Map Quest or for those who have them, use your navigation system for the location of Capistrano State Beach and the location where you are going to stay. Dana Point Harbor is Northwest of Capistrano State Beach where the show and lunch will be served.

I also decided that we should just meet up at Capistrano State Beach on PCH Between 10:00 and 11:00 then Caravan to Dana Point Harbor for lunch and the show. After that it's impromptu! I will start another poll to get a final head count for name buttons the last week of February and the first week of March.

If anyone has any ideas about this meet feel free to express them. I will be bringing the SoCal ROC banner for all the newbies and those who joined the ROC after the last recorded setting SoCal meet. I know we will break the old SoCal record and set a new National meet record this year!

DON'T FORGET TO BRING YOUR TALKABOUTS OR AUDIOVOX RADIOS FOR THE CARAVAN! FREQUENCY 6

Last year, AZ RIdgeliner and I stayed at the Courtyard Marriott Irvine. It was very nice, clean, quiet and close to where we needed to be. It was also more reasonably priced than closer to the beach. I would stay at this location again if I already didn't have other plans elsewhere. My family and I are staying in Anaheim (Disney Grand Californian) to use our timeshare.

I know it's not close to our meet, but my wife wanted to stay close to our friends, so we booked a room at the Residence Inn Cypress Los Alamitos. AAA rate on a Suite was very reasonable, so why not enjoy ourselves?

All I have to do now is get the address for where we're all going to end up. Can anyone pass that along? Or should I just map from the hotel to Dana Point? Also, I'm pretty close to the PCH. Is it easier to take that all the way down, or is it better to take major highways? Thanks for the info!

That sounds good. We should get to the hotel around 3PM on Friday. So I can call you later that night and we can work something out for a mini caravan down to the meet spot. I have an old greyscale GPS (about 8 years old), but it still works... and it should point me in the right direction the whole time. I take it your cell number is somewhere in this post? If not, you can email or PM it to me. I can also bring some old Cobra walkie talkies that still work. Awesome!

I'm not exactly certain what the tickets prices are, but I doubt it's expensive. You can get tickets over the phone in advance, or that night at the door. There is a two drink minimum, but that doesn't mean it has to be alcohol. According to their website, the shows are:

Tuesday - Friday is an 8:00pm show
Saturday's shows are 7:00pm & 9:15pm
Sundays are 7:00pm.

Search for "comedy and magic club" on Google, and you can check out their website. Looks like fun to me!

If you guys break the so-called national record, then I think it's automatic -- the SoCal meet will become THE national meet! To heck with those guys out on the eastern side of the country....:D

I think we can do it with your help girl friend!.......coming down?

It is only on that day. However, some of us like to meet up for dinner on Friday if we live close enough , like I do or some who live further away will rent a room or camp ground and make it a weekend. It is your option.

Ok SoCal ROC, I need the names of all who are going to be in Dana Point on March 17th so I can order the name buttons and have them by the meet. I will use the SoCal Banner with the member's screen and real name and their mate's name. I need the count ASAP please! :D

Here is a copy of my buddy list. It is mostly of those I have text with in SoCal and our states. If you are from SoCal and your name is on this list, I would like to hear if you are coming or not.... If I have not heard from you already that is. :)

Hey Tony, since we can't change our votes on the poll and several of the 'maybe's' are yes's, how many ROCers are coming? What about lgmendez, Ridgegal and all the regulars?

I am so looking forward to this meet! Last year's was a blast and I would love to see at least 25 this year! So come on SO Cal! If this Arizonan can make the trip, so can you!!! :p

Being from Turlock(about 380 miles away NORTH) there should be more of us from the north traveling south. Its ST. Patty's Weekend, so im srue there will be some serious DRinkers out there. Its like a party and a gathering all in 1 weekend! Not saying im a drinker, but heck, its just anotehr reason for me to travel and hang out with other Ridgers! So, any other NOR-Cal Ridgers Rolling down to the SOCAL meet?? I mean, gosh if ARIZONA is meeting with So Cal, i think it would be nice to have some other NORCAL-ers to follow in. But heck, its going to be FUN!! Cant wait! like less than 2 weeks now!!

Still trying to get the mud off from the great blizzard of aught and seven!! Hit the sack at my sons home in Illinois and it was 1 degree. Got up in the am and it was 17 degrees. A whole lot warmer until my son told me there was a mius sign to the left of the 17. 2 weeks of 4 wheel drive to get in and out of his driveway.

that's not a bad idea. Tie a few cans and you have a low tech security/alarm system, easily bypassed with scissors.

Thanx to DLS time, it gives me time to wash my truck and spiffy it up for the meet for Saturday and wash her down either thursday or friday after work.

Usually works!(SO FAR!!) Well, about pictures.......I KNOW you will NOT have a problem from any of us camera savy People!

Not to poke a joke or fun, but are the other folks who requested this same time off at your work, related to Irish folk, or going away to areas of many PUBS?? Just wondering! My sister's Fiance' is Irish and he has like a 4 day weekend, due to the fact of his nationality and says he has PLENTY of "THINGS" to do this weekend. Pubbing he calls it.

Hope one of you "shiney truckees" did a double shine. This way it can cover for my truck when the shiney noses are counted. As I remember I did drive it through a car wash in New Mexico or some other state along route 40 or 70 on my way home. It wears a travel patina quite nicely if you can remember it really is a truck. I drew jury duty all week long and on top of that I still haven't got unpacked yet. While I was resting I also had 2 wisdom teeth surgically removed so I look about as used as my truck. But I will arrive on time and smell good too!

I also remembered to get the tires this time. Last time i came to a meet, washed her and even cleaned the bed and cover, but forgot to do the tires. It was all muddy and brake dust was still on the wheels:eek: . Got it this time and meet all of you there.

Well, unfortunately, i am not familiar with the area, so i had the truck washed before i left(Wednesday). But now, i sorta have bugs from the almost 400 mile trip to Costa Mesa. I am not too sure about where or what car wash is decent. So, ill have to leave it to the rest of you to be Super Shiney! Ok, C U ALL in 12 hours!!

Wow.. what a good day today. Very nice to meet and see new faces. Great to see everyone having a grand ole time and another successfull meet to boot.
I'm sorry if i forgot some of your names to whom i just met, give me time to process and hope i remember the next time we meet. Thanx to Tony for the name tags, I tried to blow them up so i can read them, but some where either covered or didn't have them on. again sorry.

Thanx to Tony for getting everyone together a casual as the meet, and no extra ordinary stress for this meet, and didn't loose anyone this time unless they had to go after lunch. Thanx everyone for showing up on time and very suprise Ron(5Sdude) coming late:eek: he's usually the first one there:confused: j/k. great to Dan and family, Miguel & Adrianna, finally got to meet jammin jimmy, Beephill, Brent, Greg, Dean...anyone i missed??

Happy to see Kelly (Ridgegal) out and about and Brandon (Jago) for driving out as far as i did, not in comparisson to Turlock or Arizona Beephill & Meanmachine. Well, here's a peek to the album

Again, i apologize if i missed anyone :D

The link to the Album....tooooo large to resized them all and it will take tooooo long to resize them all. so here's a link to the album:

Looks like a great time. Only missing a Dark Cherry and a Redrock ?

Have you considered starting the meet at a Honda dealership? We've done that a few times with our '06+ Civic club. The dealerships even provide food, some door prizes and discounts! (it's only a 10am-1pm thing) So people can gather at their leisure.

I have been watching for the pictures and comments as you fellow RL owners post, thank you for documenting the meet.

My son Max and I had a very nice time meeting you all for the first time. Not only did I get to make new friends and check out their "mods" but Max and I got to spend some Father-Son time together.

Thanks to Tony for organizing, I'll be looking for you the next time I'm at the Acadamy, don't forget to ask for me the next time you're at Piper Tech.

K&B - My pleasure to be able to help you resolve your Nav DVD issue ;)

Now when I read the posts I will be able to put a face to some of the names.

Hope those of you that went to DT Disney had a good time, it looks like you did, maybe next time I'll bring both of my twins instead of just one of them.

Greg.

It was great meeting you guys. Michelle liked it too (much nicer to be around a mature crowd after numerious RSX meets). Almost reminds me of back when I had my legend. We definetly have to do something again. And yes, something a tad bit more local would be nice too... espically where I don't have to drive down to almost to Camp Pendleton to meet you guys. LOL.

Whoever took that, very nice. First rolling shot of my truck. Yay!

Jim, I also find it funny how we used to canyon run together. Oh well. Half of the time I never could see your guy's face cuz it was so dark up there at the top of stunt

Ah yes, that's who I ment. Very nice job kelly. low light shooting w/o a tripod isn't exactly the easiest thing to do, espically with a point and shoot.

Looks like another great California meet was had. Sorry Marilyn and I couldn't have joined you all. We hope to see everyone again at the next ALL CAL meet next September (is that right Tony?) Great photos everyone. On a side note, just heard on the news that the 2006 RL is part of a large Honda recall. Seems some insulating material on the fuel pump may cause the truck to stall. Honda will replace the fuel pump relay.

We got back last night from So Cal (our stay was extended visiting Mickey and Minnie :p ). My family had a blast and it was great to see old friends and make some new ones! Sorry for getting the group lost on the way to lunch (that's what you get for following the AZ guy in CA when he doesn't have navi!).

I am looking forward to the Sedona Meet on April 14th and seeing some of you again. Kelly, hope you and Brandon are still coming!! That will be three groups from the So Cal area....any others??

Since I'm at work now (shhh....don't tell) I will get around to posting a pic or two of my own, but they won't be as good as what I've already seen.

Tony, thanks again for a memorable meet and as always, it was a blast! And for those that couldn't make this one, come to the Sedona meet on April 14th!!:D
