Beware: 22-W Garden Grove

There's a gnarly bump right before Beach exit (after Magnolia exit).

I believe a section of the (concrete) highway has lifted and naturally Cal Trans did a **** poor job of patching it ... at least for now ... I hope.

I first noticed it a few days ago, yet I tend to forget and nailed it on the way to work (two days in a row now) going ~75 (flow of traffic) and it felt like hitting a full fledge speed bump. Kablam-O! It's a good thing I'm current on my spare 17s + 45-series.

I would recommend slowing down for those of you on large wheels/low-profiles/stiff suspension.

The freeways in genreral have been terrible lately. I am hitting rough patches all over the place. I do my best to avoid but sometimes it's difficult. C'mon Cal Trans get this crap fixed!!!!!!!!!!

A bit off topic here. Clint I saw you on the 60 fwy yesterday on my way home. You exited Philips Ranch I was honking at you, but you are focus on the road ahead. LOL! When I saw your car I notice that the car was dropped I told my wife that it might be you. As I got closer sure enough I see your plates gkruzer himself.

Sorry to hear Reggie.

Glenn,
I heard you honk, but did not see anyone I immediately recognise. You people with your damn tinted windows ... that's what you get - No Wavies.

Were you in the Titan?
