Your Favorite SoCal Drives

subscience · 05-29-2009, 04:34 PM

I'm somewhat new to LA and I've been looking for some fun places to take a weekend spin. If anyone has any good routes to share, please do post!

One route I really like is Malibu Canyon/Topanga Canyon loop. Minimal traffic, tons of twisties, and a nice scenic drive on PCH to break it up. The 101 part can easily be skipped and you can get a nice lunch by PCH or Malibu too. Google Map route.

Also, I've heard they re-opened a 7-mile stretch of Angeles Crest and it's supposed to be one of the best drives in CA: News story about the re-opening, Google Maps route. I'm definitely planning on checking that out this weekend.

Azusa canyon or whatever its called is pretty fun when its open. Only go at night there are no cycles at night. Be prepared for a lot of rice rockets.
