Either westbound just before Doheny or the curve at Marmont, 2 1/2 miles further east. Both were deadly back in the day. They finally restructured the road to make it safer.
I drove my Chevy. Not to the levee, but it is a Chevy and I did drive it.
I have driven Thunder Road, sometimes to Asheville, sometimes to Memphis town, but I don’t have Revenuers chasing me since I’m not hauling any load.
I’ve shot the Gap at Cumberland and streamed by Maynardville, blazing right through Knoxville right on Kingston Pike. But I always slow down when I get to Bearden just because, you know…
Heh. I saw this skoolie (bus conversion) on my walk today. I was going to post the image in the “most interesting car” thread, but it kind of fits right in here.
I used to drive to, and on, the levee quite often. But I didn’t have a Chevy. I drove a Ford. Sadly, that doesn’t rhyme.
I have ridden on the City of new orleans several times.
i have walked in Memphis with my feet 10 feet off of beale.

If you’re going to San Francisco, just take 101 south.
From down in Monterey, head north on 1 and take a right when you hit Santa Cruz.

And be on the lookout for my heart. I think I may have left it there.
I was in Kalamazoo a few weeks ago. I highly recommend Sweetwater’s Donut Mill.
I’ve also come from Saginaw, but I did not hitchhike, and it did not take me four days.
Come to think of it, I’ve also counted the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike.
mmm
I’ve been Eight Miles High. Sometimes in an airplane.
Qantas didn’t fly any 727s when I visited Australia, but I did see Sydney from a 737 and a 747.
I’ve driven to Hell (Cayman Islands) but I wouldn’t call it a highway.
I’ve gone 26 miles across the sea to Santa Catalina Island.
But have you driven to Hell, Michigan? Highway 36 gets pretty close.
I’m still in touch with a former doper who I think os from Kalamazoo. I’ll see if I can lire her back to this thread.
I have stayed at the Pennsylvania Hotel in NYC. Would anyone care to guess the phone number?
Never made it to Tacoma, but I have been to Phoenix (Arizona), Philadelphia, Atlanta, LA. And northern California, although I can’t attest to the warmth of the girls.
Well, I’ve never been to Spain, but I kinda like the music.
