[QUOTE=Arsey;10623602]This 3 mile stretch of road has 4 roundabouts, one on each end.
One end houses the Mayor of Munchkinland, and a rock hillside is on the other.
It is named for the nice panorama of the area that is afforded by the hilltop route, and an unincorporated district of the county shares its name.[/QUOTE

Fun clues. Figured out the spot, I'll try to get to it this week.

Old Spot: Fairview Ave. up in the Hayward hills. I'm not sure if there is a name for this exact location, but there really is a dead Iroquois (Bell "Iroquois" UH-1 military helicopter) on the other side if the fence.

In keeping with the theme and also current East Bay events, here is the New Spot. (a word of caution/hint: it is usually okay to pull off and park anywhere on this road, however, because of current activity at this specific location there is temporary no parking for a short stretch of the road. I was able to park just at the end of the no parking zone and push my bike a few feet closer to get the best angle for the photo.)

I thought the clue referencing the "mayor of Munchkinland" was a dead giveaway
