Thanks for coming out, it was great hanging out with everyone!
Meeting notes:
- Our trip for September is full, with 15 rigs. If anyone is interested in joining the trip but hasn’t signed up, I’m willing to up the rig count to 20. Just message me!
- If you’re signed up for the September trip, I’ll be sending out an email with all the details on Monday.
- It looks like we’re going to be finding a new location for our monthly meet ups. If anyone has any ideas, please share them! I’ll get this figured out within the next few weeks.
- The Trail Guardian event will be our trip for October. Look out for the rally point in the app. This will be hosted by Kent. We’ll make a plan to convoy down there together once it’s official.
- Our next meet up is on the 14th of October and our discussion topic will be Navigation, Maps & GPS.
Looking forward to seeing you all at the next one. Till then, happy trails!

Hey South Bay Crew!
Thanks to everyone who came out to our Vehicle Weigh-in event today! It was a lot of fun!
The South Bay crew held an event to go weigh our vehicles in San Jose. We each weighed our rigs fully (or mostly) loaded. We did our front & rear axles independently and then weighed the entire vehicle. After we all discovered how heavy our rigs were, we went out to grab some lunch and had some awesome conversation!
We’ll be holding another vehicle weigh-in event at the beginning of next year. So keep can eye out for it!

Dang I thought the weigh in was next Saturday. I’m bummed I missed it. Can you send the address of the scale so I can weigh my truck.
