I don’t either, despite having 20/20 vision. I drive a 3rd gen 4Runner, and the headlights are pathetic. I’m pretty sire an Amish horse buggy has better forward facing lights than my 4Runner.

They still suck on the 5th gen Runner. It seems like nothing directly in front is lit up.

The ricer bro jdm yellow fogs is where it is at for rain. I have led lights on my cars. Yes I point them down. The white light makes it a bit hard to see with fog and rain.
Concrete is the worst. You can never see the lines well.

Yep. Its sucks man. Didnt think it was that bad but its been weeks and nothing is better. Hopefully chiropractor work gonna get things right.

It's definitely helped a lot of the issues I've had through the years from my motorcycle accident. Been going for like 9 months regularly now and a lot of the daily pains are gone.

Getting ready for the "midterm" election "hate" towards me with me flying my flag on the city streets soon. ;) One can't be a "proud American" these days. :rolleyes::doh: But the fucktards can go find a knothole in a tree for all I care!!! :usa2:

This was taken at the top of "Tip Top Mountain". That is a fun little trail. I don't know WHY it's rated "medium" though unless it has changed ratings since I last ran it? :noidea: That trail is easy AF, but still really fun to do with a great view at the top!!! :playball:

You can't really rate a trail until you've driven up to it and walked a bit of it. Shit changes year to year depending on weather out here. I've done a few "black diamond" that were damned near fire roads other than being loose and steep.

I was wondering about that? At the time of this run though, it was supposedly rated as "medium"? It was super easy other than a bit rocky and on occasion fairly sharp "cliff drops", but more than wide enough of a trail. You'd have to be a complete moron to drop off over the side.

Either way, it really is a fun trail though.

The trail ratings were performed using a Subaru Forester with no bicycle on the roof.

What's funny is the dude who wrote the California trail guide book was in a jeep, and his ratings are fucking retarded too. Fire roads rated as moderate instead of easy, rock crawling trails rated moderate instead of hard. Smh.

Those were rated by how hard it was for the tow truck to get to him and out to safety.
