California (Bay Area, Northern) SF Bay Area: Eggleston at LACMA??

Well.... Aston Martin, only two gas stops, no munchie stop or drive-thru. There were some triple digit speeds involved. We owned that car for exactly a week, but what a week it was!

I seem to remember the trip odo being more like 385, but who is counting ;) Highway 5 was VERY quiet that evening.

Once did the same run in an Accord in around 4:40. Had to get a warm Tommy burger back to a college buddy!

OK, 4 hours and 11 minutes. You've got to spill the beans.

From Beverly & Rampart Blvd. in LA to Broadway & El Camino in Burlingame is 397 miles. An average of just under 95 MPH.

Let's start with the vehicle and go from there. If you claim it was done on your Aprilia you'll lose what slim credibility you already possess. :D

Made it there and back yesterday on I5. Got to LACMA around two o'clock. Just over six hours to get there. We made much better time going home. Grapevine was foggy on the 'up' side (heading south) with snow on the ground at the high points. Very pretty up there in places, really. Nothing but sun on the 'down' side.

Good show. Lots of other interesting exhibitions happening as well.

Sounds like you had a good roadie Ray. Did anyone meet up with you down there?

I have never been to the LACMA, I'll have to visit next time I'm down there.

I was going to guess something Italian, but an Aston Martin would do the trick quite nicely. If you ever head to Tommy's again in an Aston, count me in :D

I wish we still had that AM! I'm not sure my SLK would handle it as well!

Yes, we had fun. Enjoyed the show and the rest of the museum. It was fairly crowded. I didn't want to arrange a meet up with anyone, because I didn't know when we'd get down there. I looked around for RF cameras, and did see one guy with what looked like a black paint MP.
