Looking at your route, I'm jealous. I used to live in Westlake Village not far from Decker Canyon and I used to love early morning runs out along the Mullholland "dragon tail" Of course back then it was in a '73 914 2.0 that ate that road for lunch and asked for more. I don't miss the surprise landslides that left valence crunching boulders in the roadway but still it is an incredible stretch of road. you have to love how you can sit at numerous turnouts and look down at the road winding through the canyons below.... Would make for some great video....HINT HINT

Have a great time!

Thanksgiving run dilemma.....

The 74 is more tight fun

The 84 3.0L more power

I did the drive today to make sure there were no road closures and it looks all clear and ready for us. I started at Village Coffee Roaster and a full loop back to the 101 freeway is exactly 70 miles. It took me a little over 90 minutes without any stops. Next Thursday should be nice. Here are some pictures from today.
