Pretty cool, glad you made it home ok. I was lucky enough to get one last ride in before the rain hit. It started sprinkling on the way home.

Nice. Roads are messy from all the washout here in San Diego this morning.

It's only been one day of rain and I already have cabin fever....Maybe I should go out and get wet!!

Thanks Busy!

Nice vid :thumbup:

However: Winter??????? Storm????? did I miss something??

Here in Denmark a winter storm would deliver at least 60 cm of snow, and winds above 15 meters pr sec. ..... (But maybe it's just that I'm getting used to ****ty weather )

Horrible!! The day before I went the same route (up on Latigo to the Rock Store) and it was bright & nice!
The whole week will be like that.
After that be aware of the canyons - it will be a lot of sand & gravel in turns for a while..

Nice video, thanks!

We should get together next time you want to go that way!

Someday I want to do Mulholland and also Dragon's Tail. You are lucky to have such nice places to ride out there.

Nice vid!!!

I just left work to go home and almost got stuck on side-streets!!! Some look more like rivers right now and in some parts I had water half way up the doors of the car... it's crazy!!! Glad I made it home...

Now there's a Tornado warning for Orange County and South LA County....

Where the rain?

I've been looking forward to riding in the rain here in Vegas for a while. It rained yesterday, but just enough to get everything wet, no real amount of precipitation.

Bring it on!

Yeah and as you may have heard the lady on the radio is saying Thursday is going to be worse.

The problem of flooding seems to get worse near the beach areas here because of the topography.

Man! look at us! We get a little weather and it's big news! We're spoiled! Hahaha

wow! you're brave to attempt those streets/rivers with the car.
You can easily get stuck in such water at intersections, etc.
Unbelievable what a little rain can do in LA!

Okay, it's pouring now. The ride home later this evening should be fun.
