For those that don't already know about it, here's a map.

Dave and I will be leaving LA around 10am or so Friday morning.

The 154 is a beautiful drive but is usually not a shortcut, especially if you get stuck behind someone towing a boat to Lake Cachuma, which happens pretty frequently in the summer months.

Yeah, I never think of it as a shortcut. You'll get slow trucks too. More like a scenic route with a few nice twisties.

We forgot the geezer busses headed for Solvang... ;-)

Someone at work recomended it - figure we'd give it a try for once...

Our 2.8L engines will come in handy in we need to pass any slow moving vehicles...

I'm not too worried.
