Lamborghini Club America members,
Automobili Lamborghini will once again host a Giro event in California this August. This year's event will begin the evening of August 9th with a launch party for our new Murcielago Roadster at our host hotel, The Viceroy in Santa Monica. The kick-off party on 9 August will be the first public viewing of the Roadster here in the US market and open only to event participants. The Roadster will lead the procession of vehicles along our route. Accordingly, the event will be called the Giro Roadster.
The morning of August 10th, we will depart Santa Monica on the Pacific Coast Highway and travel north toward Santa Barbara on an interesting and challenging collection of California roads. After a lunch break in Santa Barbara, we will continue on toward Pismo Beach, the site of our next night's accommodations, The Cliff Resort. That evening we will have a fantastic wine dinner at the beautiful Edna Valley Winery, featuring a superb selection of Edna Valley’s wines highlighting a memorable dinner.
On Day 2, August 11th , we will drive further north from Pismo Beach to the magnificent Hearst
Castle for a guided tour through the historic mansion. Afterwards, we will continue north on the picturesque Pacific Coast Highway stopping for lunch at the Ragged Point Resort overlooking a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. Following lunch, our drive will come to a crescendo in the
mountain passes rising from the Pacific Coast Highway #1 and finally descending upon the
Carmel Valley and Monterey.
The charge for participation in the Giro Roadster is $2,500 per vehicle (includes up to 2 people). That charge will include hotel accommodations during the nights of the 9th and 10th of August, the kick-off party, breakfast, lunch and dinner on the 10th and 11th as well as point-to-point luggage transfer during the event; also included is the registration of your Lamborghini for the Friday August 13th, Concorso Italiano. For those that attended the Giro Gallardo last year, we will try and make the event even more memorable this time around.
The official registration form for the Giro Roadster is attached. Please complete the form and sent the form and the $2,500 event fee to Lamborghini Club America, P.O.Box 649, Orinda, CA 94563, by July 7th. Participation in the Giro Roadster will be limited to 60 vehicle. And it is first come first served!!!
As most of you are well aware, hotel rooms on the Monterey Peninsula for the weekend of Concorso Italiano, Laguna Seca Historic Races and Pebble Beach Concourse are extremely hard to come by. Lamborghini will not be coordinating hotel accommodations in Monterey at the conclusion of the Giro so I would encourage you to act fast for your hotel needs. Please contact us if you need rooms in Monterey.
Ehren Bragg of Automobili Lamborghini hs put together a great event and this year will be even more spectacular than last year’s event.
Do not miss out! Anyone who has ever been a part of this fantastic run will tell you – it is unbelievable!
