Hi folks:
New to the forum and hoping you can point us in the right direction. I've done a search here and don't see anything pertinent to my question.
My grandson has a '26 roadster pickup and since next year will be the 100th birthday of the truck as well as Route 66, it would be fun to drive it along parts of the route. What we're looking for is any info about a rally or caravan along the route in the western states, mostly between Barstow and Albuquerque. It would be much more fun to be with a group than to fly solo.
The back story is that my grandson and the truck are in the Portland, OR area, so we'll trailer the truck to our starting point, which will be Barstow, although we could start in Victorville. (We have no desire to drive through So Cal and over Cajon Pass. There is a minimal amount of sanity left in us....) And we'll trailer it when there's no alternative to I-40. I just drove the route from Barstow to Albuquerque last year so we won't be out there without some experience. (And I drove it six times in a Model A a lifetime ago before the interstate was built and 66 was the only option.)
We're limited to California, Arizona and New Mexico as grandson has only so much time off work. We just don't have time for the eastern parts of the route. But if you have any info about a rally or caravan on the route next year we'd appreciate a tip. THANKS!
Any Rt. 66 caravans in western states next year?
