Up in the PNW, just north of Vancouver. It's our regular biweekly PCA Saturday morning rip up the highway. Had about 40 Porsches show up!

Trip with my two sons, one in his new R8 v10+ spyder, and me in my spyder to Jerome and Prescott AZ. Great roads and decent traffic (except for a group of 50+ motorcycles going 15 under the limit with no gaps and no way to pass- VERY frustrating to say the least) . Jerome is VERY hilly!!! Put tops up for lunch at Grand Hotel in Jerome because of dusty parking lot. If you ever eat there I recommend taking a SUV- the hill to the parking lot was 1 lane and NOT recommended for our cars!!! Almost had a heart attack just getting there!!

Nice! How do you compare the two Spyders to drive?

Don't tell your son, but your Spyder looks 2x sexier than his R8

We had a Spyder outing on Saturday to kick off the Memorial Day Weekend. It is impossible to put to words how much fun the driving experience is in a Spyder, it truly makes me realize how fortunate we are.

I'm amazed there weren't more motorcycles in the parking lot @ the top of Palomar - on a Saturday! I was there a couple weeks ago and there must have been 30 bikes...

There was some rain in San Diego which must have kept the motorcycle and cyclist away, it was literally dead on Palomar. We made the entire run up and down the mountain with literally only one car which pulled off not long after we came up behind it. Similar light traffic heading out to Palomar from Temecula and mild traffic in Julian too. The cars and drivers were thoroughly exercised and happy at the end of the run.
