And me just last Sunday. A perfect January SoCal day on the Snake above Malibu beach... just doesn't get any better!

I bought a new red 1965 Corvair LeMans and drove it from Chicago to California via U.S. Rte 66, stayed in California for about 4 months and did the Mulholland Drive drive while out there. Great drive, too bad I didn't have my Sportster then, would have been a blast. Never can tell, maybe one of these days i'll do the PCH on my Harley.

I can see how that road would lull ones sense of security. Watched the videos...the one guy on the green bike who hit his front brake when he saw CHP along the road. Sucks to be him.

So true. 42 years ago, stationed in San Diego, my bike was my only means of transportation. Got wet a few times but some nice riding back then.

"1965 Corvair LeMans and drove it from Chicago to California" What is a Corvair "LeMans". Never heard of such an animal ... Monza's ... Spyders ... Never a LeMans though ??
