DavidW Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 I am pretty sure I will be there, though may need to leave a bit early. I look forward to seeing your LR2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Given that I can't go to Death Valley, I might be in... although Sunday might work better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Given that I can't go to Death Valley, I might be in... although Sunday might work better. Hey Nicholas, I hope to see you at the MORG - your RR is in my top 3 favorite LRs in the club! Are you heading out on Saturday or Sunday? -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidW Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I am so bummed my dad had to go back to Boston last night, as he would have loved to experience a MORG. We did not make it out to Hollister Hills (too much rain), but I did take him to the Land Rover Experience driving school and let him drive a couple hours. I had a free lesson from when I bought my LR4 last year - finally cashed it in! Hope to see you all on Saturday - I'm pretty sure I will be there (though not exactly sure for how long). -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidW Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I plan on being there for my first MORG! Hi Jim, It's lots of fun. I actually just stumbled upon the NCLR during my first time at Hollister Hills back in February. I did not even know the MORG was going on and came across about a dozen Land Rovers and said wow. Haha! Hope to meet you! -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamO Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Alright Saturday it is. Meet at the ranger station Saturday morning? Say 10AM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Hey Everyone, I was so bummed to miss everyone at Hollister Hills today! I arrived late, around 11:30AM, and could not find any rovers anywhere. I spent a fair amount of time on a few trails, the other (more mild) obstacle course, and the day camp area. I took a bunch of cool photos, but could not find any NCLR folks anywhere! :-( Next month I hope to be able to meet at 10AM at the Ranger Station, as I was really hoping to meet up with everyone..... Hopefully some folks will post pictures - I will post the few that I took. -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 I'm bummed too... went out and found I had a bad starter or solenoid and couldn't get 'Chelsea' started. Turned the key and got a buzzing/clicking noise... wasn't getting any kind of turn over and the buzzing seemed to come from the solenoid. Luckily there is a Land Rover mechanic about a mile from me here in Santa Cruz so I'll have her towed in as soon as they're open. Hope it's nothing major. Sorry I missed out on the MORG, looking forward to meeting folks next month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidW Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Well, even though I could not find any NCLR folks at the park (I was unable to get there until 11:30AM), I still had a great time at Hollister Hills today. I spent a bit of time at the easier obstacle course and had a lot of fun. Hopefully next time I can make it on time so I can join the group on the trails. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/April%202012%20Off%20Roading/photo10.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/April%202012%20Off%20Roading/photo7.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/April%202012%20Off%20Roading/photo5.jpg Sorry this one is a bit fuzzy: Sorry the picture below is a bit fuzzy... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/April%202012%20Off%20Roading/photo1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v667/EireAngus/April%202012%20Off%20Roading/photo.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Sorry we missed you David - your LR4 is looking great there! Didn't get too many pictures, but got a couple of videos...

DavidW Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 sorry we missed you David and your nice LR4.... around 11:30 we at the old obstacle course and were heading up to the top of the world via the rock quarry Hey Will, Ah shoot... I LITERALLY just missed you guys... I was at the obstacle course shortly after that and the convey must have been en route to the top of the world. I should have ventured up there... though, I have never been there before and not sure of the terrain? Definitely next time I will meet on time.. don't want to miss everyone again. -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Sorry we missed you David - your LR4 is looking great there! Thanks, Nicolas! Awesome videos... Yes, I am really happy with how my LR4 is coming along... I should be getting the rock slider/steps sometime in the next couple weeks. I am still holding off on the 18" wheels (there is only ONE option from the UK that fits the LR4's huge calipers) until I decide if I will keep the truck long-term. In the meantime, I am trying to figure out which tires to get that fit my 19" wheels, as the selection is VERY limited for 255/55/R19s... Really my only 2 choices for on/off-road tires are Pirelli Scorption ATRs or Cooper Zeon LTZs... I'm leaning toward the latter. -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraemeWare Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hey Everyone, I was so bummed to miss everyone at Hollister Hills today! I arrived late, around 11:30AM, and could not find any rovers anywhere... David, That can be a problem, but if you have a CB Radio or Amateur Radio 2M, someone is normally monitoring channel 7 (CB) or 146.460 (2M). If you don't have either, $50 will set you up with the CB or $80-100 for the latter (plus a simple test). Worth every penny when someone gets in trouble (a story for another time ....).
