I am with you & really disappointed about what has gone on with the smart events. I reside close to you. Glendora Mountain Road is good with lunch at Mt Baldy or we could cruise up Angeles Crest & have lunch at the restaurant at the top? Palm Springs is cool with us as well. We could also do a run to the State Poppy Reserve in Lancaster, taking the scenic route off the 5 frwy. & Lake Hughes Road. It would also be really neat if we could organize a Foothills Regional Smart Touring Group where we could have monthly events starting in the San Gabriel Valley Foothills area?
