A Saturday morning on Mulholland can exhibit the best and worst of California's riding culture. Petrolhead Jay Leno often holds court with precious metal from his vast collection at the Rock Store cafe while weekend riders steel their nerves with coffee. Knee-dragging types often skip the caffeine and aim straight for the adrenaline high of the Snake, a hairpin-laden section of Mulholland that collects pieces of fairing like autographs. A parking area at this particularly savage bend means spectators and photographers can set up shop, offering a chance at YouTube fame or infamy.
