  1. We've done a few podcast interviews as folks have been interested in the notion that there will now be a Land Rover Specific Event on the Rubicon. The Rubicon is no stranger to events, Jeep Jamboree brings over a thousand jeeps through a year on their two events. However, Rovers haven't been organized in any events like the Jeeps, Toyotas, and Ford Broncos are until now. If you get a chance check out the interviews as we attempted to promote the club and the event. Your feedback is always welcomed! http://www.snailtrail4x4.com/episode-7-get-your-rovicon-on/ https://centresteer.com/podcast/centresteer-74-gclrc-rovicon/
  2. Don does have room for you I believe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. On our trips it’s typically bring your own food except for the annual we try and coordinate a catering for dinner at that one. So it’s fairly remote so you definitely need to make sure you pack appropriately. Feel free to reach out and we can help you with what you want to consider. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  7. I've been considering this as it seems super straight forward to just replace. https://www.lseat.com/products/1990-1995-range-rover-classic-lwb-custom-real-leather-seat-covers-front.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwtYXmBRAOEiwAYsyl3O7iJk4pByc_2NG8VvVeB-ukSCZoY1BLu6hPEwx1sluy6ZxGYRf7ChoC7acQAvD_BwE Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. Coming up on June 8th we are heading to Malakoff Diggins State Park for the Humbug Days, that is a great trip into the Tahoe NF and suitable for everyone. Feel free to jump into that thread to catch up!
  11. All right!! Time to update the plans and get this trip moving! Plan is to meet at the Sierra Crossings Starbucks in Rocklin where bass pro shops is on the morning of June 8th at 930-10am. We will plan to leave there around 1015am, getting us into the park around 1145-12pm. The road is primarily paved until we cross the Yuba river and then it's well maintained dirt road, this is suitable for any Land Rover. I plan to spend the afternoon in the park at the festival and the lake there letting my kids pan for gold and fish. There's lots to explore around the area and a great camping location just past the river that we go right by plus camping inside Malakoff diggins too. So for those coming from a far feel free to coordinate something. Also many different dirt road tracks to check out in and around the park, so depending on folks interest we can break off into those groups that want to continue driving versus enjoying the festival. For those into hiking, a really cool trail on the north side of the Yuba that heads west takes you to Spring Creek falls a neat waterfall that is right into the river. We plan to make this a MORG and SRS, so we can adjust and accommodate plans as needed based on attendees. Please feel to contact me with any specific questions!
  12. we'll find room for everyone but we plan to keep trail groups to around 5 then we can meet up at camp. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  16. Starting on the 28 and finishing the 30th. We'll camp on the 27th at loon so we can start early on the 28th. We also plan to have staggered starts and rendezvous locations for those coming in late Friday and Saturday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Just moved from Thursday-Saturday to now Friday to Sunday. Missing Thursday and Friday was a limiting factor for many who wanted to attend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. So we have made some changes to the dates to get more folks on the trail!! Also, Esten has been busy working up designs for the trip and those are availbe now on our RedBubble site. Thank you Esten!! https://www.redbubble.com/people/norcalrovers/works/38658654-rovicon-stickers?asc=u https://www.redbubble.com/people/norcalrovers/works/38658739-rovicon?asc=u Looking forward to seeing those that can make it out!
  19. Regards to the Rubicon some feedback on start dates... If we move the start date back to Friday with a camping option for Thursday night. Can more folks make it? Please let us know soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. That's awesome!! Those were screws that I have no idea about. We're in the door then into center console, threw in cup holders as I removing pieces and then waiting there to go back in center console... Extra bolts are great! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Finally finished this project and realized I didn't share the outcome...it was way more complicated than I thought it should be, but it works! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. My intent is stock vehicle and the social rover Saturday/Sunday (srs) are intended for the whole family. I don’t plan to camp but there’s a lot to see and great camping. So we can have off shoot events for those interested in doing more driving and camping. I’ll have my stock lr4, plan to hike around and enjoy the event. Possibly fishing or exploring the river. Ideally we would meet in Rocklin near bass pro and then caravan up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Noooo!!! [emoji33] I wanted to see the Defender!! Barrett lakes trip? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Thinking ahead for the summer, be good to get some Social Events on the Calender. June 8th is Humbug Day and this event has lots of options to add to the specific festival. Leaving from Nevada City we can take dirt roads all the way into the park. There is also normal paved roads that get you there too. This event begins at 11am and the water monitor is usually activated around noon. There's great hiking there, fishing at the lake on site and plenty of camping. Since a lot of people could potentially come from a good distance it might be a great camping trip. Centrally located with lots to explore around the area. One of the things I really enjoyed when we went was a hike down the Yuba River to Spring Creek Falls, gorgeous place that crystal clear blue/green water that the waterfall dumps right into the river. Given the winter we are having the forest roads may be closed, so I'll put this up as a place holder and see what interest we get and start from there. Here's a link to the park site for more information: http://malakoffdigginsstatepark.org/school-programs/special-events/park-events/
