Hi, I'm Bradley and I'm a 17 year old based out of Colorado. I love off roading, and after getting a 2015 Jeep Wrangler figured the only reasonable place to go would be to set it up for overlanding. I got a minimum wage job to help pay the bills and am slowly making my way to my dream rig. My experience is limited in overloading, but not my outdoors experience. I'm an avid hiker, hunter, and fisher, and can't wait to see what experiences overlanding has set for me.
Hi Bradley, welcome to the OB commnity.

Cyberland Bound is a go for launch! We're a team of Tesla cybertruck reservation holders that will convoy across the U.S. off road on the TransAmerica Trail. We are independent of Tesla and we're going to evaluate the cybertruck as a next generation electric utility vehicle. We'll be engaging with the community over the next two years to gather ideas for destinations along the trail, and to design informative tests to carry out along the way. Let us know your suggestions, and maybe we'll see you out along the trail somewhere!

Hello OB! Glad to join. I admire the "community" created here. Met Michael in Costa Mesa a few weeks ago at the Adventure Expo and decided then to join. Hope to learn a lot, meet cool peeps and participate in some fun. Overlanding wasn't a word to me a year ago. I have some camping and off road experience but I'm no expert. My veh is a 2004 discovery 2, so I'm a mechanic in training as well!! Lol. It's called Rove Again because this is my second disco. it's a love/hate thing for sure.
Welcome to Overland Bound. I am one of your U.S. West member representatives, if you have any question or concerns feel free to contact me @Magic Mike. You can also contact our Regional Director @Narbob if the need arises.

Make sure and browse the New member threads for some great information, which will help you in navigating the Overland Bound website. Also keep an eye on Rally Points and the member calendar. You will find upcoming local meetups, trainings & trail runs in these places.

Look forward to meeting you out on the trail.

Welcome to Overland Bound... I use to live up in Washington State and I love it up there. Couple of my kids live up there and I go up as much as I can.
