Stick a fork in it, the 2023 NorCal Wheeling, Camping, and Fuckery Thread is done.

Anyone have the ECGS needle bearing puller I can borrow? Also, hello! Looking forward to some wheeling!

 

I have one. Where are you located in Nor Cal

 

Nice! Berkeley. I’ve been successfully dodging replacing it but now have the roar at ~50mph

 

@TacoEspecial how does the new set up feel? truck feel more planted off road? looks amazing.

 

Sure does...

 

Surprise to see no one at sawmill lake this weekend when we arrived at 5:30pm Friday.

 

Yes
It's pretty awesome
The Howe PS from FD fab helps a lot
37s!!!

 

I bet it helps for 40s too. It's not really that much more work. lol

 

It looks like NorCal fire season has reared its ugly head, after a few false starts:

 

There was some pretty big lightning on the rubicon Saturday night.

 

We’ve had some big buildups in the South Bay. We were supposed to see rain but all we got was 85% humidity. I’m hopeful Siskiyou is easily controlled given its recently burned.

 

For those that aren’t on social media with me! Haven’t wheeled much! Baseball has been off the effin hook! San Diego World Series, bay area tournament (my boy was a guest player and got the game ball since he pitched like a beast!), Cooperstown NY (placed 6 out of 56 teams, maybe it was 7. Lol) , played in Tahoe last weekend and lost in the semi final ( shoulda pitched my kid, *** cough cough). All summer was busy!

But still waiting on the Tank. Soon! Then its time to hammer the eff down!!!


Anyways, wanted to brag about my kid. Lol

 

Done

 

Curious to hear your thoughts on how it compares to the dusy

 

Ask 100 guys which is harder and it'll end up 50 for the Rubicon and 50 for the Dusy. lol

 

Plenty of it this weekend, too. Even saw a small lightning fire get started northeast of Spider Lake around 5PM yesterday. Luckily, the rain snuffed it out quick.

 

If you can do Rubicon, you can do Dusy.

I think Rubi is harder because:
1 TOO FUCKING MANY PEOPLE.
2 Fuck those off chamber granite face marathon runs.

 

lol yeah I remember feeling that way the first time through. It gets better the second time tho.

 

The people part will never get better lol.

There was one point we waited an hour and a half for people to come through.

I saw 9 trucks that weren't part of our group on our Dusy trip last year... we saw 6 of those with 2 miles of the end of the trip.

 

I 100% made up my mind... I do not like the Rubicon... at all.

I'll do it again... but there are way better trails. That place is just too commercial (for lack of a better term)

Fuck that trail.
