There are plans to upgrade it.

With NO CARAVANs signs and 1000 pound fixed penalty for lorries over taking would be a good start

I wrote a note to the owner of TD to congratulate him, and asked him if I could be a mod. Well, he didn't waste many words with his reply and wrote "No you can't" and the ignorant bastard cannot even spell Can't

1960's perhaps?

Actually, closer to circa 1977 if memory serves

Has to be that time Booners. People do not even call it the Glendale Freeway anymore except for the old timers still driving their Pontiac Bonnevilles or Buick Skylarks. . Its all by numbers now, the 5, the 405, 805, 210 and 55. That change happened early 80's.

They should call it the 303.

Our interstates are set up by odd numbers go north to south, evens east to west.. Can't have everything going north to south...

More imaginative people would have stuck with good old fashioned names like Route Sixty Six.

So is Mulholland Drive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulholland_Drive

It is a big piece of history as well. I did a lot of test and tune on that road with my Yamaha 1990 FZR-R OWO1 750. Lots of deaths on it too. I used to see some really bad ass road cars up there making late night runs.

The nice thing about TD ................... the way threads kind of morph into something completely different and even ocassionally BM can resist the temptation to turn it into another political rant.
Well done BM.

I post a run from Huntinington Beach to Costa Mesa and mention it's a good ride and that's political???

^ No. You do not understand what chassamui wrote. That whoa.

The only thing this objective poster/observer understands is he posts a deal about a nice bike run and directly following that post comes an attack regarding politics.

^ No one attacked you. Was just the opposite.

Just to help out...

This is known as the Piwiannoy effect. A failure to read and understand. No apology necessary BM.
