Since we had such a great gathering in 2017 I thought that I'd give it another try. If you attended in 2017 you need no intro or info. For those of you attending for the first time, Idyllwild is a small quaint Mountain Village surrounded by Pines and scenic roads. We are within 45 minutes of Palm Springs if one wants to dine or shop in one the many stores or shops. There are 4 very nice roads leading into & out of the Idyllwild area from which to choose. And if that isn't enough we have Palomar & Big Bear Mountain, with it's wonderful roads and gorgeous scenery, right next to Idyllwild.
Since everyone loved the Silver Pines I booked it again. Silver Pines has a new and an older section. The newer section is called Silver Pines Village and they were kind enough to hold the entire Village for us. The older section is referred to as Silver Pines Lodge. They are about 100 yards apart. Rooms will be held until Jan 30, 2023 and released to the public afterwards. Call 951-659-4335 when booking and ask for Mel or Sandy. Tell them you are with the Porsche 914 group. Help me keep this list updated by posting the room # so that I can strike those from the list.

Please see POST 144 for the list of our sponsors who make this event possible. These are the folks that "have our backs covered". Keep them in mind when shopping for your 914 needs.

I am in. Thanks for your efforts Kent.

Me and my buddy Mark S will be there in my 6 even thought I can not drive with my failed 3 weeks ago rotator cuff surgery. Should have my second surgery with the full reverse shoulder job done by Feb 2023 Looking Forward though I can only be a passenger in my own car

Nice place Kent!

So far away
But giving me something to think about
Brant

Do it Brant ! It’s a great venue

I'm planning to be there.

It's a really nice change from the desert.

Looking to get a different room for this one. I already fixed all the things in the last room

I'm in - just booked my room. What drives did the group do in 2017 and what is planned for 2023?

Thanks for putting this together-Rick

Booked #17.

Alright Keith. It will be good to see you again.

A chauffeur doesn't sound half bad Bob. Looking forward to, shall I say, viewing your latest creation. Oh Bob, you and @jim_hoyland need to keep your cars down the street from the rest of the herd so we won't feel so ashamed.

@Brant , What's wrong with you? This is Rt66! get your ass down here.

@Chris914n6 Glad you're coming Chris. You were a big help last time. Do we get to see another H20 914 make it's appearance this year?

Undecided at the moment Rick. There are several to choose from and the weather could play a roll in which routes are chosen. I'm pretty sure that I'll include a drive to the other mountain (aka Big Bear) one of the days.

Good news, I've appointed our first volunteer! John @VegasRacer is volunteering to head up the 2023 Rt66 T Shirt Design and Production Committee. Your sense of duty is highly commendable John. Can't thank you enough.

Room booked. See you there

Hi Kent,

Thanks so much for putting this Idyllwild event together. I went on a drive tour to Idyllwild with the San Diego Region Porsche Club (60+ Porsches) 2 1/2 weeks ago and the drive was spectacular. Looking forward to going up for a few days to spend some time with 914eeners!

I've booked my room ........ Sandy was great to work with!

Hope we have a great turnout!!! Fun times!

Thanks again.......

Cheers,
Margie

Room booked
Cat Nap

Fantastic! @914SIXXation We'll be looking for ya'll Margie.

Which one will you be driving this year Steve? @Steve

Most likely the V8 toy.

If any of you locals have extra parking places for the trailer rigs of those folks towing their 914's to this event, please let us know. TIA, Kent

Will there be entertainment again?

Jim Buchanan and Dee will be there. Now if we could just get Erc @Eric_Shea down here with his guitar and GT!

I sure hope I can find a 914 to rent for the weekend.

Drive your 914 down. You might get the distance award.

Happy to help.

My room is booked.

Hot Damn! It wouldn't be a Rt66 without ya JP.

#16 Manzanita for me.

Just booked room #18 (above Jim) for Cathy & me. Told Gonzo that if we don't have our desired "rides" sorted by then we'll be cohorts in our CRV's. BTW - Jim, we'll try not to be too roudy. Fortunately for you all 5 of our boys have left home and won't be joining us.

Mark S and Bob B have room 12 reserved. Looking forward to this.

Bob B

Going I can't wait.

Thanks for the heads up good to hear I have good neighbors.. if things get out of hand I’ll move to the TeePe
