The Next Big Thing…

And that would be our next ride, of course. Rather than simply tell you good folks what we’re doing, we thought we’d ask for your inputs.  And we’d like to arrange it so that our good friends from all over the country could ride with us, rather than arranging it for just our local loyal riders.  If you wouldn’t mind, shoot an email to me at jberk@californiascooterco.com with your thoughts on the following…

One thing we’re thinking of doing is another quick afternoon ride, maybe on Glendora Ridge Road. This would be either on a Saturday or a Sunday, and it would be the ride you see us all bubbly about all the time on the blog.  We’d meet at the plant around noon or so, ride up into the mountains, have lunch at the Mt. Baldy Lodge, and come back to the plant. This is about a 50-mile ride, with no freeway riding, and just awesome riding up in our gorgeous California mountains.  We’d do this sometime in the next couple of weeks if we do it. We do these Glendora Ridge Road rides all the time anyway, but we thought we’d open it up for anyone who wants to ride with us.  Are you in?  Let me know.

The next thing we’re talking about doing is a weekend gathering starting here at the plant. Our preliminary thinking goes like this:

• We’d start at the plant meeting either Friday night or early Saturday morning.  Any preferences?
• We’d include a factory tour narrated by none other than the Boss himself (yep, your tour guide would be Steve Seidner, our CSC founder and CEO). Would you be interested in this?
• Saturday morning would include a great breakfast at Merendero’s almost directly across the street from us. You’ve seen us write about it on the blog a lot.
• We ‘re thinking either an all day ride across Angeles Crest Highway, or a shorter ride through the San Gabriels. Which would you prefer?
• We’d provide a barbeque dinner at the plant, with Steve doing the cooking. What works best for you, Friday or Saturday?
• You could stay at a nearby KOA if you want to camp, or the Sheraton, if you are coming in from out of town (this would be at your expense).
• We might include an evening run into Bert and Rocky’s ice cream parlor in nearby Claremont. Anybody interested in this?
• We’re thinking early to mid-April for this event. Does that work for you?

If you think you’re interested in the above, let us know. And tell me your thoughts on what you’d like best. Whatever we do, like always, it’s gonna be fun and it’s gonna be memorable.  And you’re gonna make the blog.  So, are you in?
