Malibu cruise

christian370z

Very true on all your points, that is some consolation for me then. I haven't been up there for the past 4 months since I got out of school so I didn't know they did some paving (which was much needed, some of the roads were in terrible condition). There are a bunch of smaller roads such as Latigo Canyon Rd and Corral Canyon Rd which were almost always empty all the times I ripped through there in my Saab. But you guys are definately the experts, do you think we should all figure out some loops to alternate with
or just decide on a route on the spot?


Great video btw!

Latigo has still not yet been paved over, but is still a great run.

IMHO - in terms of loops, as in actual "loop" which you would a few times back to back, my favorites have been:

PCH - Decker - Encinal - PCH

PCH - Las Flores - Saddlepeak - Tuna - PCH

PCH - Yerba Buena - Mulholland - PCH (yerba buena is always empty, but the surface is not in the best conditions - no craters or potholes though, just uneven and gravely in several spots. We still ripped sh** up coming down it on sunday though - LOL)

But I hardly do those in loops so much anymore (save Decker, it only takes between 10 and 12 minutes to run that loop so it's hard not to do it more than once). I kind of just combine one lap through most of those with some healthy mullholland and PCH cruising and sprint down latigo.

For that stretch of Mul- from Las Virgines to the stop sign at Cornell, yeah. 3rd gear the whole way - since I was trying to film. The oil was around 240 during this part. I got up to 260 for a couple minutes a little earlier before we got to this stretch. That was on Piuma where we were pushing it a little harder than we were in the video. And it was crazy hot out on sunday too! Don't forget, PCH side is Malibu cool, but the other side of the mtn is the valley.

Will it be fine if this is my first Canyon run ever?

christian370z

Yes, this will not be all out. It will be fast, but always remember that if our Zs can handle the speed we will run at, so can yours.

Just stay further behind whomever you are following haha, isn't that easier? Unless you just want to write in tape "show ur boobs" on the side of your car that is...
