Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Como is a sweet spot! I haven't been out there for a few years. I need to get back out.

 

I guess a fire went through the old town site a few years ago and wiped a lot of stuff, but the old mine site is still fairly intact! Took the oldest up there in April or May, had lunch, poked around, and had a great day.

On the way out, some old folks in an early-2000's bone-stock Ford Explorer were coming up from Dayton. They were making it, though the factory running boards were taking a beating. Still, it was nice to see people in their 70's out there, exploring and 'wheeling' and enjoying life. Gives me hope, if I live that long myself! Lol.

Anyone have a need of four 4x6x8' redwood landscape timbers? Free for who wants them. Got them for a project that never happened. Or if y'all know of of a trail maintenance group I could donate them to that'd work to. I'm in NW, Robb and Mae Anne. Thanks.

 

If those are still available I could use them for the last couple of gates I have to install.

 

Done. PM'ing you now.

 

Happy New Years gents!

Anyone know of a good barber in town they recommend? One who's comfortable using a straight razor. My old timer barber seems to have retired due to health reasons and I'm not sure he will be back.

 

Mine nicks my ears 50% of the time since he has the shakes so I cant really recommend him.

 

My buddy Pat owns Maxwells, he’s a good dude and never had a problem when he uses the straight razor on my neck and ears, even with ingrown hairs or zits on the back my neck You have to book ahead of time online and he only books appointments out one week in advance which kinda sucks. But 10/10 recommend.

Is that the place over by Greatful Gardens? Ive heard nothing but good things about that place.

 

When I was commuting to Sparks I was going to Shy's on Vista. He's good but does appointments, must be an NV thing.

I have a good one in South Lake. Boyd's, really good with the straight razer.

 

All these barber shops are missing one important thing- a nice shampoo and head massage.

I always go to BJs but I don’t think they do straight razors.

 

Cee the barber. Shampoo, head massage, and great with the straight blade

 

God, am I the only degen that goes to GreatClips?

 

I dunno. Is it more degen that when it's time for a haircut, I open the cabinet under the bathroom sink and pull out the clippers?

No guard, no one needs more than 1/32" of hair on their head. (And I'm not even going bald!!)

 

Well that does make me feel better

 

Agreed. Its pretty rare I go to the barber anymore. No guard clipper is my way too.
