I prefer to climb Big T, it's quieter and quite spectacular. You can park in the neighborhood around Oro Vista and Foothill, or park in the Sizzler parking lot at Foothill and Sunland blvd. This is at the Sunland Blvd exit from the 210.
There is a big ride up the Big T route on New Year's Day. My group will be leaving the Oro Vista area at 9:00. Join Us!

I put 8:00 as the start time for the 1st, should be 9:00. Yeah, I have that damn virus, too.

What group? Is this a traditional New Years ride? Do you plan on descending Angeles Crest?

A heat wave! 2 years ago it was 32 at Red Box when we turned back because the road was covered with ice. Last year it was so windy I almost got blown to a stop more than once. I almost turned back on Big Tujunga.
Also last year one of the guys in the racer group had a vehicle pacing him up to Red Box as I was coming back down. Another car passed this sag car and almost got me. This was after I dodged a tree that had fallen into the road. Fun stuff.
