We are driving from Santa Barbara. Do you know how long the drive is?FOD wrote:99-hours until concert start! I am so stoked!
We leave early on Saturday morning and will get into Vegas around 1 PM. Then a little nap and onto the pre-concert festivities. See you all there! We look forward to meeting a lot of you.
Cheers!
It's about 5 to 6 hours .......about 2 hours to Ontario and about 3 to 4 from there to Vegas......We are doing the same trip....How about a convoy????whitepelican wrote:We are driving from Santa Barbara. Do you know how long the drive is?FOD wrote:99-hours until concert start! I am so stoked!

We wanted to see the sights first thing in the morning and then leave (if we even get up after the concert!)

I just did the drive to Vegas about a month ago and it took 6.5 hours from Santa Maria. You can probably cut an hour off from Santa Barbara. I usually take 126 East past Santa Paula and then pick up I-15 over thataway. We're probably going to hit the road around six on Saturday morning so we get into Vegas around lunch time.whitepelican wrote:Dutch Harbor PH wrote:It's about 5 to 6 hours .......about 2 hours to Ontario and about 3 to 4 from there to Vegas......We are doing the same trip....How about a convoy????whitepelican wrote:We are driving from Santa Barbara.

I didn't think it was nearly that long a drive after looking on map quest.
When are you planning on leaving to drive across?

I know some are going to the Santa Barbara show on Thursday and won't be able to leave until Friday....however, I suggest you get on the road at the crack of dawn. If you decide to sleep in, it may turn into a very, very long drive.Several months ago there was some brief discussion about Caltrans planning to do complete closures on I-15 in the Cajon Pass in the Summer. Well Caltrans has put this work off for awhile and has now decided to start work around October 20th and work weekends Fri thru Sun into early November.
Caltrans HIGHLY suggests that if you're planning to drive to Vegas during these times that you leave EARLY on a Thursday and come back LATE on Monday.
They are building additional truck climbing lanes and other bridge work.

If you read through their thread there are a couple of pages that deal with some misunderstandings and apologies. I know, because I was one of the misunderstand'rs / misinterpret'rs.mjeischen wrote:Vegas Baby Vegas!
