most of the roads I was on a couple of weeks ago were good. We went up Latigo instead of Topanga and were not on Mulholland except for some brief descending.

Yerba Buena was the one horrible road that we descended. I think climbing it will be better.

Deer creek climb was not easy I do not remember completely as I was suffering but I think that road was good as well so I think it a better choice to go downhill

Decker was a hard and long right out of the gate. Mid way through the climb I feel I was in too low of a gear by the sheer audacity of the start. I will pay more attention to gearing as I climb the second time around. Being at mile 70 and with one more major climb to go this looks to be an important climb and a good gauge as to overall time in my view.

Everything from Topanga south will be new to me. The Malibu 7 went more north
