Decker Canyon Road

Drove this road for the 1st time in my Mini (might have been the 1s time ever, as I do not recall driving it before), I can only assume that it has been repaved recently, as it was very slippery, I was sliding all over the place, and normally it takes some effort to get my tires to break loose.... I couldn't get over 40mph on this road, it's crazy!

Just thought I would share

Yeah, driving an "Anti-Mini" (SUV) is just not the same !

Connects to PCH up north sort of near Zuma. Fun road... if 40 MPH is as fast as you could get, I dunno! . I've gone a LOT faster than that.
