When I first bought Ruby Sep 2009, I was told I HAD to ride the "Crest" - best ride in Southern California. So I saddled up and rode to the where it begins in La Canada only to discover it was closed because of fires - DAMN. Then it was closed for winter, then it for floods and mudslides, then another fire, then rebuilding guardrails, then repaving.
Today, I was FINALLY able to ride Angeles Crest Highway from the start (rode one other time by taking Big Tejunga Canyon Road). Mike (my Suzuki Bandit-riding buddy) and I braved early drizzle and cool temps to make this ride today. YEA!!!!!
After a nice ride to Newcomb's Ranch for a little refreshment, we backtracked to Angeles Forest Highway and rode to Acton...then hit Soledad Canyon Road....then hit Sand Canyon to Little Tejunga Canyon Road to Sunland. Finally, it was time to jump back on the super-slab (210) for the ride back to civilization.
Overall, a GREAT day of riding and I look forward to riding it again, and again, and again, and again.........
