Title: Angeles Crest reopened (now with pics)
Post by: qwertydude on June 08, 2009, 09:49:28 AM
It took a while but for all the LA area riders Angeles Crest is now open again. It's one of Southern California's best rides if you don't know about it.

Here's a pic of an interesting set of turns near the bottom.

And near the top you're literally in the clouds watching them roll by is really eery.

Years ago we drove that road in my little triumph spitfire - I remember there was a smashed up car at one of the turnouts, looked like it had rolled a bunch of times, then been abandoned.

More pics plz.
