thehelix112 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Hey J, Maybe you should not write things that require actual reading and comprehension in order to reply intelligently? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdeezs Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 I can see how USA came to the mis-conclusion of going off Decker 10 times (doesn't take a genious to realize what J was talkin about) but yeah he does seem to have a stick in his butt.

hoov100 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 i remember when i was first getting into motorcycles there was a small canyon by my house with a dirt trail that ran along side the edge and once while riding the bike down the trail, i went farther down then i normally go and about 40mph i saw about 100 feet in front of me where the trail takes a left and the edge of a 350 foot cliff began, needless to say i slammed on the brakes, laid it down and watched the bike plummet off the edge, after that i have only driven/riden on canyons and mountains with guard rails, my current favorite is highway 74 that connects sun city to palm springs, if you can make it to sun city from the start of 74 in under 45 minutes you have truly earned the right to be called a driver.

usa3776 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 If you want to really understand my story, go do like I said and turn right onto Decker. Go down 4 turns, then pull over wherever you can. Get out and go to the edge of the cliff, and look down. You'll see that if you rolled a car there, you'd have to go about 250 feet down the cliff before you stopped. I don't know how many times we went over, but I'd guess 10. what does that mean then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 It means we rolled off of a 250 foot cliff. The car flipped over a bunch of times. Is that more clear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jknc90 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 He doesn't mean the car "went over" the edge 10 times, I think he means the car rolled over 10 times when he went of the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoov100 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 its his favorite spot to go moon surfing with a vestal sprite, on full moons, he does it about 10 times a year at that cliff.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 If it's not clear now, it's never going to be. End result of the experience was STOPPING the canyon running and picking up autox and track days. As I said before, the autox and track days allow you to push WAY harder without the same consequences. I thought I was driving fast in the canyons until I started actually racing and found out that I had my head in my ass for the most part...

dhp123166 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Decker Canyon is an awesome road to drive especially from the 101 to the top, sliding around the greasy turns, I think I had more fun with going up than going down as fast as possible. And I NEVER saw any cops... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
