Here's my photos.
We started out at "Base Camp", just off the freeway at Angeles Crest Highway. I
was happy to find 8 roadsters ready for action.

Me and Steve led the way up, at a good clip to the first stop, the parking lot
at the base of the observatory road.

After that, Steve's "racing lightweight" chased me on a kooky ride up to the
observatory peak, where we parked on the edge of the world. This is also where
we met our BMW Bretheren (they loved our cars)

On the way down, I pushed it a bit and lost my brakes, boiling the fluid yikes!
A quick bleed, and we're off again on another "spirited" jaunt, after passing a
Miata or two, to the lunch stop at Newcombs Ranch

We got a treat to find a classic plastic sports car there

And, of course the bikes

Then it was time for the eats

We talked of more rides soon and getting together for some of the shows. Sounds
good to me!
