This past Sunday, five roadsters met for a ride to see the annual bloom of California poppies on the rolling hills, outside of Palmdale.
Poppy Run Line Up
We were apprehensive at first, as it was heavily overcast and drizzly. The record breaking storms of this season had washed out most of the exciting mountain roads, so, our ambitious plans for twisty roads were thwarted by "Road Closed" signs.
Overcast drive
No sooner than we topped the mountains, we found the sun. The mountain ridge was holding the foul weather in the L.A. Basin, making it a beautiful springtime day in the high desert.
A break in the fog
During our picnic lunch in the poppy reserve, we were visited by a roadster-less owner, new to roadster-list (Hi Masa!). Even a Rattle Snake came to join the conversation.

Gary C. noticed a dirt track where you could drive amongst the flowers. Nothing like a little off roading.... In a sports car!
