If any of you say anything about saying touge spots on the internet, I reserve the right to flame your ass from here to kingdom come.

Have any of you been up Palomar Mountain? South Grade Road is awesome (58 turns in 7 miles), but it's getting crowded. More and more superbikers run the mountain on the weekends, and more and more screw up and crash. I've heard that the residents are so tired of the superbikers that they've begun putting sand on the apexes of the turns so the superbikers have to either drive slower or crash. Jesus, that's screwed up. Anyway, Palomar apparently also has CHP posted at the top and bottom to help stop the stupidity by superbikers and mountainrunners alike. I've been up Palomar at least 10 times and I've decided I don't like it on Saturdays, or holidays. It's friggin' dangerous now. So, I do it early in the morning when I can't get myself hit by a superbiker's head. Or bike. Tell your Palomar stories.
