I had a few somewhat close calls last night on Latigo with rocks like those, you are absolutely right about that particular danger. The good thing about this regular cruise is that 'regulars' begin to emerge and everyone learns about each other's limits which makes it safer and more enjoyable for everyone.

Any run with Vic is bound to be exciting anyway haha.

i'd really chill out on the latigo drives, talked to a lot of people who live near there and bascially there are a lot of un-happy people who live on that road. and drives when there are Santa Ana winds should be avoided at all costs.

if at most limit the amount of cars you will be caravaning with.

problems with latigo - bottom section has not been paived for a very long time and its a rim bender, the other sections CHP would just need to be sitting up top and just waiting and watching week nights & random weekend days out there.


when there are 2 or more cars driving a canyon fairly close to each other, its up to the officer's discretion weather that is considered "illegal street racing" etc. weather you're in a "drive" etc.


good luck with the drive.

I can't swing this weekend, the roads will be perfect though however the good weather also brings morons out of hiding as well.

I am glad to see you are an expert on the canyons, I am learning but it is always great to have others with experience to get some killer routes down!
