Thanks William for sharing some stories with me.
Here is an excerpt from some of William's experiences.
My first memories of Mulholland was when I was but a little kid. As I said we lived on Skyline and obviously we used the "track" as a way to get from home to places as opposed to people that came up there for other reasons. I remember going home from the movies in Westwood and riding in my step fathers old Porsche 1600 Roadster. He used to love to drive it fast and I know that on a few occasions we picked up someone from Grandstands and we would just fly all the way to Skyline. That was way before the Summit was built and Grandstands was but another dirt pull-out.
When I was 12 I was given a Flexo Mini-bike. I used to ride it all the way from my house over to the dirt roads and hills where the Summit is now. I think that I got to know the road so much better than most people because I was always cruising along it at about 25 MPH. I know that living up there was a serious advantage when it came time to actually drive up there.
Good story William. You're in good company.
