Been a while since I went up there. Been carving Santa Monica Mountains more these days.

Not OP, but this area is located here: https://goo.gl/maps/y4uitme4RyNVtBKA9

It's about halfway through the mountains, continuing on the 2. I typically go left at the first split toward the dam but people fly through there and I am not comfortable with those speeds. I may try continuing on here, the roads looks nice.

I was going every morning on a Wed or Thurs for a month, but now that my work schedule shifted back to a Mon-Fri, haven't gone in a couple of weeks. I've been invited a few times for a Saturday morning run up, but been busy.

I like to head up ACH from the Big Tujunga side. I drive up with a group that meets every Friday morning to head up together for #goodvibesbreakfastclub PM me for details.

Mostly Porsche drivers, all makes and model years show up and everybody always seems to be in a good mood (at least I always am after that drive).

What's up with bimmercircuit, is this group mostly LA or SFV based?

They seem more costal based near and west of Calabasas.

I'll be doing this drive more often when I get some more ppf on some bits - sideskirts, and front bumper. Maybe in a couple more weeks.

Originally I was planning to PPF the second I got the car. But once you get that first chip, felt I should just accept all the "personality" my M2 is gonna develop. Each chip tells a story.

I'm really just concerned about the headlights and windshield now.

Grill mesh kit is being installed soon

The grill mesh mod is a godsend. Since I did my grills I am much less concerned about following cars and enjoy the drives with less worry/stress about damage.
