Yes they were over at Fordyce then went over to the Rubicon . i did not get any of the cyber truck because i thought i left my phone in the tent , but it had actually fell down between my seat .We meet there friend that had the other cyber truck and i was going to weld up the broke one but they got it fixed . Because we still had some stuff to get out . I had to run into Tahoe on Sat to get even more stuff that nobody has ever said a word about.

Since I need to make new PS lines I figured it would be a good time to add a cooler 
my old cooler just would not fit . . I also got this cool anti leak valve. . On steep inclines. I would get some oil out of the line . This valve fixes that and it keeps the fluid pressurized at 6psi to keep it from foaming . ( I never had a issue with over heating or foaming but this has to help something

So a little about this past trip
. This was part of Sierra Trek . This year they wanted to add 3 new runs . There was a overlander run . What they call a Rocklander Run then the Extreme run known as Rubidyce . We kinda did a test run last year so this year I had a good idea what I wanted to do . Overall we had a great time . We meet up
At Meadow lake on Monday. And set up our base camp . Tuesday we cruised over to the Rubicon. Stopping for lunch in Truckee . We started in Tue eve and wanted to get down to the Springs so we could set up our camp . Wed morning we had a good breakfast then headed out to hit all the Sluices . We helped a 4 runner along the way that had broke the day before . And we passed the cybertruck on Big sluice . At that point they had fixed the rear steer . So we pressed on . We made it to the soup bowl and there was a group of Jeeps playing there so we headed for little sluice . The bottom of little sluice is no joke . The rocks have Zero grip we all made it past and worked our way to old sluice . Once past old sluice we started our way back to the Springs . There was a bit of traffic going coming up
Big sluice and a SXS rollover so that took a little while . Once back to the springs we had a great dinner and relaxed . The next morning we left early as we had a big day ahead . Our goal was to be to Winch hill 1 on Fordyce by early afternoon. We made great time and stopped a mile before and took a break while we waited for 5 broke rigs to clear winch hill 1 . Once they had cleared we cruised up and stopped at the base where the NorCal wheelers greeted us with drinks and snacks. Everyone made it up and we were on our way to Committee where we planned to camp for the night . ( best spot on the trail
) another great dinner . The next morning we took our time and had a good breakfast . The plan was to head up just as the river run made it down . ( they had 4 rollovers coming down
) Honestly the next 3 winch hills were very uneventful. We just drove right up and just like that we made it back to our base camp . . That afternoon we enjoyed the vendor show . Then that night a group of us were going down to WH3 to play . Wh3 on Fri night is a party to say the least . . We made it to wh5 and were waiting for a group that was coming up ( they had 3 rigs towing a broke Full-size blazer up ). Then some dude come blasting past me hit the top of wh5 and starts rolling down it was 2 or 3 complete rolls and almost onto the rigs coming up
. We helped get him upright . Gas dumping out everywhere ( his tank had broke ) as soon as he was up he fired it up and took off 
. At this point WH5 was a giant SShow . I was blocked in by another buggy and people were everywhere. And that point we called it . This was not the party I wanted to be at . Once we had room to get out we headed back to camp . Good call . Everyone had a good time and already talking about next year . The Official Rubidyce run was a success . I think in 2 weeks I am going to run a different route 
. ( from meadow to bowman lake then drop down hwy 20 to hwy 49. To Georgetown . And back up the rubicon. If I like this route I think next year we will run it .
