Palomar Mountain Road is definitely a good one. It's also one of the best maintained. Check out the spring water fountain on the way up (about a hundred yards short of the intersection to the observatory).Originally Posted by nurb2

Turnbull canyon and carbon canyon cant compare to GMR. Carbon carnyon is a joke...

ive known a couple of people who've went off gmr, just watch yourself.

Sure will! I'm going to make one full test run before we go back the other way and speed it up a bit. My cousin will lead the first wave because he's got a lot of experience on the GMR with his old Ninja.Originally Posted by shadowist
Superman105, I'll try to do the same as your buddy, but I'll have to be a bit more creative since our Recaros are different.

gmr was closed front way, and azusa canyon was closed halfway up when i went up like 5 months ago. from that video it looks like front way is still closed too

my bro took his s2k there and got a tiny scratch on his rear bumper cuz his rear slid a bit due to the sand on the ground. just watch out for sand.

Thats what im am saying!!!
The trip was FUN. We left early in the morning, did our run to the top and stopped to take some breathtaking shots of the mountain view and our rides. My cousin led on the way up and I led on the way down. I noticed a Subie going the opposite direction on our way down doing his run as well. Unfortunately, our fun had to stop when fog set in and it started drizzling. From that point on, we chilled till we hit Mountain Ave to go to my other cousin's house and attend her birthday party.
We filmed the whole thing from my perspective and it looked really tight. I mounted the camera on a tripod and secured it in the passenger area so that the camera is between the seats and slightly behind them. The footage turned out better than expected.
Thanks for all your suggestions (which I took very seriously). About the patch of dirt, we slowed down before we hit them and it's very evident on the video.

Glad to hear your trip was a safe one!!!!! Post the Video somewhere so we all can enjoy your ride!Originally Posted by k2da_izo
Glad to hear it went well and nothing happened. Any trip to GMR that doesn't have anyone having their ride jacked up is a good one.

So judging from what you wrote, I'm assuming GMR was open from the main entrance? Or did you have to take Azusa canyon?Originally Posted by k2da_izo
We went through Azusa Canyon Rd.

I have been on Ortega quite a few times, and I have only seen it without traffic a couple of times. I haven't been on Glendora Ridge yet.
