  • Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

    Ottertex Fabric

    I just bought some Ottertex® Polyester Ripstop (PU) - 8.7 oz, so it's late to ask if anyone has experience with it. Details/specs looked good enough to just go for it. I'm coming from Duck Cloth and want something a bit better... Really hoping I didn't make a mistake.. I'll know personally next...

    Northeast

    And with that in mind Michael... Is why most of us on this coast wish to break in down a bit. It is as simple as adding the Crew or Regional feature to the web-based platform, instead of the 'pay-for' app... I've bypassed all this by making a private group and more so by making another group on...

    East Coast N/S routing.

    Okay.. we bailed out in Virginia. Not the road was too tough, by most means, the roads are fine. I think only twice did I back away due to it went close to single track and then it seemed short distance. For me it was a 'click' I picked up in the steering and I know there's a 'u' joint in the...

    Appalachian Byway and PA camping

    The way back we'll be checking online for spots. Figure we'll need one as we cross into PA and just before we leave PA. I'm thinking I may jump off MABDR and switch to NEBDR about mid state. Haven't really worked through this part yet. I'd like to return home using 'some' of the NEBDR, thinking...

    Appalachian Byway and PA camping

    I wasn't pushing for too deep in being I have no clue what they look like. Just wanted something along the way. Coming back is a different story since I'll be running much of the MABDR. I believe I'll once again being running up through the PA State Forest system. I'm still planning this out and...

    East Coast N/S routing.

    We are heading down Skyline/Blue Ridge/Smokie's Parkways then heading north through the NF's back to NH. I figure we'll run the MABDR up as we leave the NF's. Most I read about the MABDR is sections 2 & 8 have the technical spots. Can anyone elaborate a bit on the run?

    Emergency 2 way communication

    Off track went towards the suggestions beyond the original posting and why. Did no imply anything needed deleting. I did say even those posts had validity according to what was said. All was welcomed and received as posters intended.

    Emergency 2 way communication

    First I'd like folks to understand that the situation we were in was not Life/Death, just medical attention and a vehicle that wasn't going anywhere without assistance. Hitting the PANIC button and having SAR's come out was not what was needed. I was after a way to communicate to bring...

    Ask About Gaia GPS!

    Here's another.. Black diamond with number in it. No in the legion that I see... Nat Geo again. I'm thinking it's 'select paved' going by just the road color. Still wondering if 80 is a forest road? Kinda nice if it is!

    US East Skyline Drive & Blue Ridge Parkway

    As we turn north again, I'm researching a route up through the NF's. So, getting off pavement is great! I'm using the MABDR as a quite and trying to work out connecting forest roads.

    Looking for trail toilet ideas

    Came real close to buying this one, but the cassette toilet won out due to the flush system. Good wifey's nightly pee runs!
