    SoCal Back-Roads Thread

    Idk if this exists or this is just a pointless thread..

    Anyways, I've been bored of the usual back roads/canyon routes I drive on the weekends. Thought I could get some input on some prime canyon roads/twisties, or just some prime scenic drives.

    Post those roads up with a general location and an idea of how long the drive is if its a point to point road.

    Thanks

          from mulholland highway -> stunt road -> saddle peak road -> tuna canyon road

          also following mulholland highway for it's entirety between PCH and topanga canyon is awesome

          latigo canyon is fun

          come to the next supercar sunday cruise and we will explore some more

            Yeah, I'm definetly going to come on the next one.

            I usually go out around mulholand, I actually rolled my 325ix 300ft down a cliff off yerba buena, it's still down there HAHA! They couldn't get it out. It's about two miles away from Neptune's net

                      Yeah, I will next time, and I'm not crazy when I go out haha, I was just young and inexperience when that happened.

                      I think every single piece on that car is broken... Good luck bringing anything up that cliff too, it's hard enough to get up and down as it is. Even harder with a broken wrist haha....

                      Shit, well, my attempt to search for a thread like this failed.

                        Hmmm have you ever tried the 405 during rush hour? Or the 10 maybe the 101?

                            Some of my favorite drives, man. If you're lucky and the stars align, a lane will be closed too. Then you really get some time to enjoy the scenery:)

                              Seriously speaking* anyone spot the deer or mountain lions yet? I saw a deer around 5:30 pm one day, as I was heading to the valley., half way down the over pass.
                              Tripped me the hell out cause it's not something you see every day in the city.
