I rode Rim of the World one night in early January this year (takes me about 45 miles to get there). It was fine except it's pretty windy up there. And with the recent fire in that area, I'm not sure about the condition there.

Angeles Crest Hwy (ACH) is about 35 miles from where I live. If we meet up at the Shell gas station at the foothill ~8 AM, we should be able to make it to Newcombs by 9 AM. Have a quick breakfast and get back to the gas station by 11 AM.

I've done Route 2 in Hammer's post, possibly Route 3 as well. I'm relatively available all day Thanksgiving Day because I've no Turkey duties. So I can go either way....
