(Pssst, Glendora Ridge Road is just fine. Might want to reconsider the location of your meet if it another "winter" storm hits prior to 5/12.)

You might have an idea. I spent half the time trying to get around dickwads who were diving too slow, then would race through the turn-outs (don't you love it). Then have 4x4s fling road muck at the car like machine gun BB pistols.

Finally, had to wash and Zaino the car upon return, 'cause the back looked black, but the car is Silver.

Hmmm.... time for some thoughts about this...

guys, we are going up the back side. You won't have to worry about the motorists for about the first half of the drive. Glendora ridge is a great road, but w/ the amount of people we have and the length of it angeles crest is great. And then again thats why we are going early in the morning. The first i'd say 40 minutes which will be our last 40 minutes of the drive do get the occasional driver, but thats why you put me in the lead to get them going on their way
