longjohn Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I know I usually plan these things for a Friday, but it just couldn't happen this time. The weather should be good tomorrow with some Santa Ana winds expected to be in the 10-18mph range through out the route. I will be meeting Jose 9am at Mandeville Cyn Rd and Westridge Rd where there is a widening of the road on the west side just north of Westridge. From there the the plan is this: head out pch> Latigo > Kanan > Mulholland> 23>126>150>Ojai>33>Possible lunch>Cerro Noroeste>Frazier Park>Peace Valley Rd>Gorman Post Rd>138>Old Ridge Rt >Pine Cyn Rd>Elizabeth Lake Rd>14>Angeles Forest Hwy>ACH>La Cañada Flintridge the end. There will be Santa Ana conditions, but a check of the weather sites found Sun will be in the teens as far a wind/mph is concerned. Pine Mt Club will be 54º-41º today and 59º-45º tomorrow. It hasn't snowed in several days and no recent freezing temps, so ice shouldn't be a factor. I have headed up Cerro Noroeste before this time of year and the chain sign has been turned to be read, but I went through anyway and didn't have any problems aside from water draining off the road, and sand in spots.

longjohn Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 So without pics it didn't happen, so… We road down PCH to get to Latigo Here you can see Latigo winding it's way up the hill One of Latigo's many curves Four Channel Islands were visible: Catalina, San Clemente, Santa Barbara, and San Nicolas. Here are the latter two visible on the horizon Here we have the Grimes Cyn section of 23 And a stop at the fire station on 33 before heading up into Frazier Park. A slight disclaimer: Some of these pics were not taken on the day of the ride due to me trying to catch up with my buddies and not having time to stop for pics, but every care was taken to ensure that the conditions were the same as the day of the ride, warm breezy and clear! Oh, btw, it was 81º here in LA today, Merry Xmas!! Link to comment
