Re: 2018 Solvang South to North
Drove from home in Camarillo to link up in Moorpark with Ray/Ron and three more roadsters and we caravanned over Balcom Canyon, South Mountain Road into Santa Paula for yummy Mexican lunch then into Ojai and up and down Casitas Pass and onto San Marcos Pass into Solvang and Buellton. Great time at Mendenhall Museum and Solvang Roadster Show. Our table of 9 at VFW hall was very lucky in the Raffle winning 8 or 9 times! Fantastic job by Harlan and crew securing top notch raffle prizes.
The whole weekend was terrific and we thank Harlan and all the volunteers.
I was happy my decision to not even take my soft top with me resulted in great topless driving over curvey scenic canyon roads out and fast 101 freeway and ocean views back home.
Can’t wait until Monterey in August and next years’ Solvang Roadster show.

Re: 2018 Solvang South to North
You're very welcome and on our way back we made a pit stop by Al's vineyard. I have to say that us roadster folks are "good people." Thank you all for your friendship from meeting with the Desirello's, the Stocklers, the Vo's, Al, Manu & Wife, and of course our "chase vehicle" who was there to support us throughout the journey to Solvang -Peter!
