Isn’t there a part where you cross the road at an angle? Wouldn’t be good if we all slipped down the hill…. [emoji1787] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sounds awesome! When you say, meet at camp, is that in the evening? Or is there a specific time we should be there by? -
This past week I had a new A-frame installed from Adrenaline 4x4 (with new bushings), got my heating vents sorted, new wiper motor, and some other random bits....

Lost Coast 2021 - November 12-14th Weekend
SplurGn replied to SplurGn's topic in NCLR Scheduled Trips and Event Information
So, my son's soccer team signed up for a bunch of tournaments for November, so I will be unable to lead this trip anymore. Sorry about that everyone...... -
Hello - Gauging interest for the trip...... More info to follow.... Goal - meet Friday the 12th in the early afternoon - fill up on gas, water, beer, etc - then we explore and camp on the beach Friday the 12th, then Saturday the 13th - we camp at the campgrounds, Sunday morning - everyone drives home. My understanding is that this is a fire road - so, all levels of vehicles welcome.

https://porterpress.co.uk/products/camel-trophy-classic-edition. they are also selling signing copies by the Ives Brothers….. by Nick Dimbleby From 1980 to 2000, Camel Trophy took more than 500 amateur competitors from 35 countries on extraordinary and challenging adventures. On most of these events, teams drove specially prepared Land Rovers to the limit and beyond in locations as varied as Borneo, Mongolia, Papua New Guinea and Tanzania. Camel Trophy charts the history of the event and tells the legendary stories of endurance born of the constant challenge to both man and machine. An official photographer on the last four events, author Nick Dimbleby combines his first-hand account with experiences shared by competitors, contemporary reports and extensive new interviews of key players, to tell a gripping tale of adventure, adversity, technological change and logistical challenge. Beautifully illustrated throughout with a stunning collection of evocative official photography and unofficial behind-the-scenes shots, this extensively researched publication can legitimately claim to be the definitive history of the Camel Trophy. The only complete guide to every Camel Trophy, fully illustrated with unique and evocative imagery from official photographers, as well as behind-the-scenes material from staff members. Painstakingly researched, with all key players interviewed. Remarkable stories that chart Camel Trophy’s progress from small, German-market promotional event to multi-million dollar international competition. Chapters on selections, infrastructure and pre-scouts, provide a fascinating insight into how the Camel Trophy events were put together. A complete guide to the vehicles used on the event, including technical specifications and insights into the design and build of the Land Rovers, Ford-engined Jeeps and RIBs (Rigid Inflatable Boats) used.

Cars & Coffee San Mateo

For the future - they have moved to a larger location, no risk of scraping the chains that hang down from the ceiling..... There were a couple of new Defenders there, and, although not brought, a guy who kept garaged a NAS. -

I’m planning on going to this, Saturday morning - if anyone wants to join and represent, here is the link to register…… Check out San Mateo Cars & Coffee on Meetup https://meetu.ps/c/4FYtY/T0WRB/a Although it’s at the top of a garage, the organizer says it’s plenty tall, so no risk of hitting anything…..
