Funny thing is on Sunday when I was heading out to Santa Clarita. I stopped at the Angeles Crest exit to gas up, and as I was waiting at the light, I saw a pair of chippy's on bikes coming down to get on the freeway. So there is a definite presence

5 fatal crashes since opening?!

The police presence is definitely not cool...AlTHOUGH, Tripes should be the only one concerned since everyone else was planning on driving 25 mph

You guys know the area better than I do but it sounds like they are really cracking down from all the coverage that I have been seeing on the news and a few days ago in the paper.

We could still hold it on the same day it would just mean that the whitest one of the bunch would have to lead to throw the LEO's off (Casper? Frost?).

Our other option would be for me to lead and I would make sure everyone drives slow

We shouldn't have any problems if we stay "within" the limits and the law which I think everyone here is mature enough to do.

I'm just looking forward to a nice drive, if you stay within the posted speed limits (maybe +5mph) you'll have a great deal of fun on the back roads, speed limits are pretty high as it is.
I'm good with that, cool with everyone else?
