2011 Mopar Coast Cruise Plan B

Plan B
On our Coast Cruise, we drive PCH Hwy 1, however because of all the rain we had this year a 50ft section of Hwy 1 washed away just past Bixby Bridge. So our back up route we hammered out at the last minute was Carmel Valley Road to 101 south.
(Joining us this year we had 9 Vehicles.)
This worked out well with the exception of some extra twists and turns. Everyone enjoyed the change of scenery. We stopped at San Miguel Mission for a quick photo op, (that did not work out as I planned). We had Lunch at In and Out and then hit the road heading for L.A.. We took hwy 54 for a nice change of pace, very nice if you have the time.
We got back on 101 and continued heading south. We had a near miss again this year with drivers looking at the cars and not paying attention to what they were doing, a few in our group averted disaster by being alert. We all safely, and in one piece finally landed at the Air-Tel and settled in. No problems or break downs it was a good year.
I invite the attendees of the cruise this year to comment and share your stories.

The Throttle Merchants Picnic

The clouds parted for a beautiful day in San Migel Ca. Fifteen Throttle Merchants and their familys came from far and wide for the Throttle Merchants Picnic 2011. I enjoy it when we meet in Bakersfield for the Hot Rod Reunion, but this is a more relaxed family setting. Great food, great friends and as always the topic of conversation, T.M. history and Cars.  If Your a T.M. member where were you?
