Friends I won’t be able to make 11/12 meet, I hope to see everyone soon. If you served for our nation in any capacity be it first responder and most especially as an armed service member and the families thank you my heart swells with pride knowing so many have served to provide me with the freedoms I enjoy everyday! Be well on this weekend of gratitude.
 
Greetings everybody.
I came by accident across this video of 5 jeeps and a ram traveling thought the back roads of Chechnya.
I hope some of you find it interesting.

Quick Reminder EastBay Meetup tomorrow
- 1 pm Sunday at our usual spot
- Roger and Sergio will host a winch clinic

Cheers Armin

Darn, this would’ve been a great meeting to be at now that I have a rig with a winch and don’t know how to use it. Gonna have to learn through YouTube I guess haha. Hope to make one of these meetings some day!

East Bay Crew,

great meetup at TopShopAuto on Sunday. Big thanks and shootout to @Frank Powell for hosting us and all the great info.

I wanted to follow up with a few admin / trip update items.

NEXT MEETUP
------------------------
Our next meetup will be Feb 11 - hopefully at the park. If the weather doesn't cooperate we may change this a little. Now I know this is Superbowl Sunday but as in the past decided to keep it for consistecy.


DESERT TRIP
----------------------
I am considering the weekend of Feb 1- 4 and go to Anza Borrego. Would love to get some feedback on interest. So if this works for you and you are interested. Please reach out to me. If we have enough interest I'll set-up a rally point.


GENERAL CALENDAR
-----------------------------------
I started consolidating the various trip ideas etc that we have discussed. Please see below for a summary for 2024 so far.
If you are particular interested in a specific trip please let me know also any adds are welcome. We'll firm-up / communicate more details as we get closer.

Roger, good point. At the last meetup we decided to keep the day. So Super Bowl Sunday it is. However I like your suggestion to change the time.

So lets make it 11AM !! This sunday, usual spot
