I found an GREAT road to take our cars on!!!!

It's not click bait, trust me.

I recently found this trail by accident. It's an uphill meandering road that leads to a F***ing beautiful view. Not only that, I found a lot of mod cars and enthusiasts driving on that road. It's a long road and you can definitely have a lot of fun. Perfect road + spot for car gathering and city viewing.

So here's the place. It's called Skyline Blvd Vista Point parking lot. There are multiple trails of different difficulty and fun levels that lead to the carpark, all of which makes a car enthusiast *** on the spot.

I live in San Jose, so I get off 280 and goes west on El Monte Road. This trail is of medium difficulty. I go there at night, it's freaking awesome.

Attached are some photos:







We should totally set up a meeting and go there together.

1. Skyline and it's feeder roads, plus Mines over in the East Bay, have always been twisty road havens for cars & bikes.
2. Highway Patrol knows this, and there's a TON of radar on weekends and evenings.
3. This post is irrelevant for like.. 99.9% of the readers on this forum who don't live in the San Francisco Bay Area of California.

I hit that road during night and I've come across this CRAZY guy following tightly behind me. When I turned out and let him pass, he went full throttle (at least 80mph along the twisty road). He was driving an old E class.

Try PIUMA road if you're near LA. Amazing views, beautiful curvy road, not too many cars.

I've never been myself, but there's always the Tail of the Dragon. 318 curves in 11 miles sounds like fun!

It is indeed very fun. But also a magnet for idiots who don't know how to ride/drive.
