    So what happened first, the car wrecking or the wheel failing?

    I haven’t found the OP on Facebook but from what I’m seeing in the comments, 4Runner was coming around a turn and an ATV rider was hauling dick in the opposite direction coming around the same turn and the 4Runner swerved to avoid him and down goes Goodman... down the hill lol. Driver is okay I’m reading

    I have MAVIC wheels on my street bicycle, but I don't know if I can peddle fast enough to charge anything.

    Used to live in Concord and hiked Lime/Shell ridge a lot. Came across tons of rattlers up there, and garters, ring necks and all kinds. Lotsa snakes on Mount Diablo

    Looks like whatever was there is gone now, but if you’re talking about first gen tundras, they are super reliable and not too badly priced compared to a similar year Tacomas. The 4.7 liter V8 is a bitchin’ engine that will run for eons if basic maintenance is done.

    You can usually find decent, lower mileage 2000-2002 model-year tundras for $6k-$8k all day. From what I’ve seen, A lot of them are usually 1-2 owner, stock trucks. They don’t seem to attract overlanders or other off-road enthusiasts like the Tacoma does. Hidden gem IMO.

    Welp, as of today, it is mandatory to wear a face covering. Only thing I have is a PBR bandana, so that will have to do for now :thumbsup::rofl:

    Pretty much all of the lakes are closed around where I live, but the Delta is still open thankfully. Always good fishing to be had there (but probably too far for you lol).

    :(

    Nothing like closing the barn door after the horses have fled. BS. Thankfully, my go to streams are not in those counties. But no telling if others may join the fray.

    The owner of the butcher shop I have frequented for over 20 years gave this to me yesterday as I was unaware Alameda County made it mandatory, as well. Had to have it to enter his establishment.
