What happens when you feed your passenger a really good breakfast, and then you drive them on the twistiest roads that San Diego County has to offer? They might…

PUKE!

That’s right! It is time to announce the 11th running of the Puke.

Puke 2008
Date: Sunday, April 20, 2008
Meeting location: Dalton’s Roadhouse in San Marcos $10.00 Buffet Breakfast at 9 am. Dalton’s opens early to host the Puke.
Drivers meeting: 10 am
Drivers meeting location: On the patio of Dalton’s Roadhouse (where breakfast is served)
Where the drivers meeting will NOT be held: The parking lot outside of Dalton’s

The Puke is a driver’s event, in the sense that the roads are selected to give the greatest enjoyment to the driver. Unfortunately this has led to some uncomfortable stomach reactions and conditions for the passengers…hence the event name.

At the 10 am drivers meeting the attendees will be split into 5 smaller run groups of about the same size. The five groups will leave at staggered times alternated in opposite directions. What this creates is five separate groups which cross each other’s paths a few times during the day. Two pit stops are scheduled for each group at Dudley’s Bakery in Santa Ysabel. This commonly results in as many as three run groups being at Dudley’s at one time. The last group out is known as the Daffodil Group as this is the group that requests to spend some time actually enjoying the scenery as they drive the course. Typically the Daffodils are in evidence in the Julian area at this time of year.

At the end of the run in the mid afternoon we arrive back at Dalton’s Roadhouse to enjoy an early dinner and relish in the embellished stories that are told of the driving experiences just completed. We again will be treated by having the patio reserved for only us Pukers.

Put this date on your very busy social calendars now. You won’t want to miss it.
