Thanks for the write up and thread. A friend and I rode most of 555 in early October and though I've had the pleasure before its been a few years. My impression of the road is that like 129 its one of those bits that requires major doses of concentration. Seems that most apexes are abrupt and guaranteed to be ten feet the other side of a crest and just beyond a driveway. Tricky sinew of asphalt for sure where even mellow progress requires rapt attention as its throwing all sorts of stuff at you incessantly. Not for the faint of heart if you like to ride on the boil and dotted with moderate housing in spots. Great road but demands your attention, completely.
Cheers Steverino
