Socal: Angeles Crest Hwy
Here is me coming down the Crest towards Shell. I really like this section because the turns are not "turn and stand up your bike technical" kind of turns, they are what I call slow speed sweepers. I also like descending the mountain, rather than ascending. The video gets better as it progress because the road gets tighter. Look at those clouds. It definitely was a moist day.

Seems fun, but just gotta make sure you're safe. Downhill is crazy. Having it go from sunny to dark and cloudy looked sikk..

Don't assume. I actually am a slow rider who pulls over for 10 times more people than I ever pass. I have probably ridden more twisties and more motorcycling miles total than you ever have or will.

not that it really matters (nobody cares, probably least of all tim) but i think you actually did imply that... "Sounds like you've never ridden any twisties in your life. And if you have, you were probably the back marker."

No, I didn't know he races. I bet he's a fast guy with AFM or WERA. I wonder if he races those minis? They are awesome!!! I used to have an NSR50 that I raced with Al Lyons org, cmrra. Maybe he even know Vision Hayes and his pops.
