And this is me goofing around with my 3 series in Decker Canyon road in CA:

Decker Canyon Rd.mp4

Decker Canyon is a famous stretch of road in CA where you can barely get beyond second gear (you can,  but you may also get to fall off the mountain,  as many have and died).  To give you a sense of how serpentine it is:

Thank you for posting, OldiesButGoodies.--------Bill

You are welcome BB3!

It was really great to live at the beginning on Decker Canyon Rd and drive it all the way down to the beach in 20 minutes - it was definitely a cool feature of California - so many nice roads.

At the end of Decker Canyon,  down the hill, you turn right in Pacific Coast Highway 1 and drive a few miles to Neptune's Net,  a great biker bar and hangout, have a beer and ome back home.

That look like that was fun. Kalifornia has some very interesting roads to drive on.

Sawyers bar road in Siskiyou County is terrifying, one of my former buddies actually cried and we were doing 30 miles n hour. We didn't realize he was scared of heights. We were there for a week to prospect. It was two hours back to the airport and no one would take him.

The guy on the bike has a death wish

Wish I knew how to post these correctly.

Hi Tinpan! Thanks for the video - that is what I would do if I had a street bike and lived in CA,  and that is why I will never buy a street bike.
