Default Mulholland Hooliganism

After attending Supercar Sunday this past weekend (more on that later) a friend and I decided to go have some fun canyon driving and head to Mulholland Drive in Malibu, CA so we could have some fun with our cars. On the way up the mountain we got stuck behind a slow pick-up truck and then a slow Harley, but we made the best of it. Lucky for us they moved out of our way by the time we made it to "The Snake" which is the most famous and most treacherous stretch of Mulholland.

We arrived at the scenic view point right above the snake to find a Lamborghini Countach ready for us to drool all over it as well as a nice old Bentley. Matt Farah was also there with a Porsche Cayman R.

We experienced almost 2 hours of sheer hoonage after that since there appeared to be no cops in sight. We saw plenty of cars and bikes scream by doing fly by's, burnouts, bikes doing wheelies and handstands. It was just insane. The fact that the only notable incident to happen was an old guy dropping his bike as he was trying to pull out of where he had stopped was quite miraculous.

Eventually a cop showed up and things cooled down for a bit, but once he was gone the hooliganism continued.

Below is a selection of what we saw during those few hours we spent up on "The Snake."

And this is why I stopped going to Mulholland.

I ride elsewhere...

I thought there would have been more super cars at the super car tethering, especially considering it is LA. In the end we have all been up there doing crazy stuff. I remember running through there in my friends 911 Turbo. Kind of scary in the dark. It was always fun because the cops were only there during the day

Night time is my favorite time to go canyon driving.
