50-5, stand on it like you mean it.

Here in Southern Oregon, many squirrels, chipmunks and deer have imprudently chosen to pitch their dwellings near Dead Indian Road; those little guys are in considerable debt to the brake engineers at BMW. The posted limit on the stairway is 55, I choose to cruise a bit below said limit so as to protect the innocent creatures, secondarily, my hot rod. Ill-chosen decisions of many woodland critters maintain my brakes in a squeak-free mode. Ya' gotta' love em', keeps this old man on his toes, keeps them alive. Offered, a snap-shot of the Indian, while this typical, relatively pedestrian section of the drive appears innocuous, there are opportunities within the 18 miles of twisties.

Mister, haven't we both driven the switchbacks which spill into North Glendora?:wink:
