View Full Version : NJ/PA/NY/DE/MD/etc Fall Meet & Greet??
Anyone up for a meet & greet this fall? Date/Location TBD. Thinking late Sept/Early Oct.... when the weather is mild.
Open for location recommendations. We can do Southwest NJ and do a "easy" pines ride if some of you guys wanted to get out on some fire roads for fun. Or nice public park, maybe with a gazebo where we can have a little cookout, let our kids hang out, etc.
Back when I was a regular on the full-size truck forums we'd have meet & greets like this a lot (primarily because there's no good "wheeling" for full size trucks in the Northeast!). I know we usually get together for wheeling trips.... but hell why not hang out once in a while?

Pines has camping/parks and wheeling right?
I thought Sept 7th was the new date for kid wheeling though?
I dont think we nailed down a date for the kid wheeling trip. Though I would like to :)
I also didn't want to limit the M&G to wheeling because I know there are members who would like to hang out that aren't up for trail riding. I've only been offroading in the Pines but im sure there are some parks there too.
One example of another option is Honeygo Park in MD. This spot was popular with my GM crew because it's a really nice park and was centrally located where A LOT of members were able to join.
Point being, i'm open for options if anyone has suggestions.... otherwise if no ones interested I'm planning on randomly showing up at your place and asking for beer :p

I'm not opposed to hosting :p You know I've got beer, and we could grill.. I've got a good sized driveway for some basic maintenance if we want to wrench on stuff.. Decent sized yard with a swing set for others with kids.. only down side is my crazy puppy.

Sept 28th, Wilmington, DE.. potluck style.. I homebrew beer so if you like craft brew no need to bring beer unless you just want to, if you don't like whatever I have on tap (no clue this far out but I can serve 4 styles and try to rotate..) you better bring something to drink.
I've got pretty much any tool required for basic maintenance stuff if you want a hand. I'm more of a pointer than Matt is so you better be turning the wrenches yourself :)
Kids are fine, I've got 2 4 year olds so we don't really have any "big kid" toys, but I suppose we can setup the wii or something if you have older kids.
My boxer puppy is a little crazy, but in general a good dog, he's just a moose so he might knock small kids over, you've been warned.
If you plan to come, PM me so I can give you the address/phone number and we can get a better idea of what we'll have/need to buy/need you to bring that kind of thing.

Vote for Rauch Creek!!! Or Scrubgrass OHV!
It's VERY hard for me to travel - even moreso on a weekend, which is why I'm voting for someplace close-by. Majority rules, but that's my $.02 worth.

I ALMOST had you an XJ really cheap yesterday!
Was sitting at a 4 way, and saw a cop coming fast (road sloped down hill from the stoplight, so I saw him coming from at least a quarter-mile away) - lights & siren going. Cross-traffic light turns green, and Oblivious Guy in an XJ saunters into the intersection - staring straight ahead (his driver's side window was even half-way down, so I'm thinking that SURELY he must've heard the siren! :eek:). I brace for impact, because I expect the cruiser to NAIL the XJ, and the remnants of the collision to carom MY way, since I'm first at the light on the inside lane. Cop locks 'em up and stops INCHES short of the XJ - whose driver I SWEAR, NEVER looked to his right - & which kept on sauntering through the intersection!
Had he hit it full-steam, it'd of been a nice fixer/upper project. In fact, I probably could've scooped it all up in a $12 USPS anywhere box and mailed what was LEFT of it to you! :eek:
Bump. anyone else interested in getting together for just hanging out?

Whenever you get here is fine.. as long as you don't set an alarm to wake up. We don't really have anything planned, I suppose we could brew a batch of beer if you want? or you could fix my jeep..
lol roger that. We'll probably leave here around 11 or so... be over around 1.
