    Only one I ever did that was the tunnel under LAX.

    There's a reason they have those "Do not enter when lit" signs... and they don't turn them on soon enough!

    I drove past there yesterday on my way home from Carmel. Tunnel looks awesome, although I enjoy that dangerous part of the road the tunnel is trying to avoid. Looked like one hell of a speedy project too with the bridge that leads up to the tunnel.

    I lived in Pacifica when the tunnel was started. Pretty cool to see if coming to completion. I used to ride my road bike to Half Moon Bay all the time. Coming back up through the Devil's Slide area was always a hair raiser. Especially in the rain.

    Your tunnel made the news in LA this afternoon!

    I've never understood why you would risk taking devils slide when you can just go up old highway 1 over Montara?

    Not looking forward to the increased traffic from retarded city drivers. Towns packed enough as it is with tourists.

    I should add that once I discovered old route 1 I also discovered that Montara mountain has really good mountain biking and some of the best technical mountain biking in the bay area. I stopped riding my road bike.
