Efork on hwy 39 i believe. I had never been on the rode before but i think its labeled as san gabriel mountain rode. not glendora...

Yeah the accident happened at 1am and the tows got there at like 3 and iono when they left with the cars. we were there till **** knows when but after the cops told me to find my own ride and asking the tow truck drivers who said the same... i had to get a ride out of there by complete strangers but they were totally down. What type of law enforcement leaves people out there when they know theres no phone signal... ugh.

done rantn

ZestJDM · 04-07-2008, 01:22 PM

very sorry to hear that
we were going toward E fork from GMR, an SUV stopped us and told us there is an accident in front that traffic cant go through, so we went back the same way
i didnt get a chance to see the accident but if i see a 8th fellow, i will stop by and take u home for sure

anywaz...we all gotta drive carefully up there

That's the 39 Highway, for those who want to know. It's also the place where I tested my TWM SS. And also where there are accidents every week for those "mad tyte" JDM drifterz yo.

i still havent met ya after all this time lol. I always go up to azusa on my bike i may have to drop by your place sometime. And i know exactly what bridge your talking about, sometimes if there are cops sitting on that road right before i start going up the canyon and i know theyre gonna pull me over for going too fast ill bust into that back road right there that runs right in between azusa and the apartments/houses lol

There's been cops stationed in that right turn as well as the gun club there recently. The ones that are in the turn-in to the houses (opposite of the apartments) were paired up on motorcycles. Scary shit. Especially because they tag people coming FROM the canyon, and that long left curve nets speed fairly nicely. No more going 60 in that area in the weekend afternoons.

Palomar is at 15fwy between Temecula and Escondido where all the Casinos at (PALA, Harrah's and Palomar)

is Ortega in Irvine?

Anyone hit up Carbon canyon? Go east on Lambert from 57 and it turns into a canyon going around to chino hills. I guess Need for Speed made a game out of it.
