    They're not too bad. I'm a block away and they haven't slowed me down much. Now the guy who decided to run across 35 and get squished this morning, that's another story.

    I want to "like" this quote to agree with it but that somehow feels like poor phrasing...

    Hey guys. Trading in my 15 PreRunner this sat at Round Rock Toyota for a 17 OR. So I'll be a newbie at wheeling and I can't wait to get into it. My son is getting old enough now to take him camping so really looking forward to that and enjoying the outdoors. Anyone recommend a beginner trail in north Austin or Temple area?

    There's one I frequent but it's pretty short. The fire station right by vilente park, there's a small entrance right off the road between some trees. Not sure if it's legal but a cool view

    Ugh. Mobtown has 25% off sliders right now, but I'm trying to save money. Trying to decide if I should just drop the cash while they're on sale.

    If you are planing on buying them in the future anyways and it won't let you without food, you should do it.

    I both love and hate you guys, but I went ahead and ordered them. Now for the lovely 6 week wait.

    Just south of Ikea on the 35 frontage. I was leaving the Toyota dealership and just turned down, there's not much there but still fun.
