Labor Day Weekend in Malibu/Rock Store (do people still have 56k?)

On Sunday a buddy of mine and I decided to head out to Malibu to the local hotspot because we figured it would be so busy we'd see some really cool stuff. Also, the canyons in the area are incredible so that was also some good motivation.



When we got to the area there were hundreds of bikes. I have way more pics but I'm going to post the most relevant ones. My friend was the photographer for the day



Jay Leno on what I believe is a steam car









my buddy and I parked at the top of the snake











some bikes coming up the snake (not the hardcore guys)





went to lunch at neptunes net, cool pic there





came back to the snake (which was totally worth it because of this pack of exotics that came through)









and near the end of the day my friend caught some pics of me leading as we went down the snake







as a side note: sunday was the first time i got to really test the TRD suspension on a technical canyon and it reacted well.

Brakes need addressing now as well and a little more power would help on the uphill. An interesting thing that I have now confirmed is that the gear ratios on the auto tranny seem to be perfect for any kind of canyon Ive been on. Compared to my other manual cars, this tranny seems to perform pretty well.



Enjoy the pics!
