I was going at a comfortable pace, and had my little brother in my car so I wasn't about to go crazy. I strongly agree with you about times and then it becomes a competition and people go full retard.

Yep just a sprain...on crutches for a week. Not sure if ima do a week off then 2 weeks of modified work duty or 3 weeks of modified work duty.

Doc said the crack you heard was loose joints popping since I've rolled the ankle more times then I can count...

Shit sucks but oh well at least it's not fractured

Hope it feels better soon!

Check these roads out:

Mines Rd

Golf Links Rd/Skyline Blvd

Redwood Rd (CLOSED but you can go down from North side and double back)

Palomares Rd (Heard it just reopened last week! YAY!!!)

Pinehurst Rd

Wildcat Canyon Rd

Yep, although Niles canyon is closed from 6 to 4 today so you can't run straight through. There's also some rocks and gravel near the south end. Quite a few deer out too. But it was good to finally drive it again

This is really random and out of character for me, but does anyone feel like driving Mines Rd tomorrow morning?
