Ortega Hwy Rt 74 So.Ca.

[fstsix]

Its snowing here again in the North East, just a flash back to So Ca and when i lived in Lake Elsinore Ca. at the base of the Ortega Mtns, Ortega Hwy was right at the end of my street and in was considered to be the most dangerous hwy in America, AKA (Red Hwy) lots of areas had no guard rails at drops of 100- 500 ft of rock. at the time i lived there back in the 80s i did not have a bike, But did have a Jag XJS HE V12 and would drive red Hwy many times to go to San Juan Capistrano and back. cant tell you how many times these guys would fly by me like i was standing still  well buckle your seat belt and be glad your not on the back of this moron"s bike, his bike blew up might have saved his life.!! Happy New Year Ride Safe. Greg.

The tar snakes were trippy in the beginning...

Back in the late 60's early 70's we use camp out there. They had some hot springs if I remember.

There use to be a few water hole/pools for hanging out, rock diving, skinny dipp'n and other types of carrying on. 

I know I'm getting on in age but can we cross and pass on a double yellows nowadays or is that only legal on a sport bike?
