Check out the colorado FJ cruisers club (invite open to all toyotas). The group organizes trail runs that range from easy (stock friendly) to difficult. We encourage new people to join in the fun, especially ones looking to learn. Check out the group on FB.
The best way to learn is to get in the drivers seat and learn on the trail from people with experience.

Common sense has always been an ally but at some point, certain automatic reflexes can cause some bad things to happen if done at inappropriate times....like stabbing the brakes.
I really want to learn what I don't know....but not sure exactly how to go about it. This is more about technique and gaining experience as there are some really great threads on what to have along in terms of preparedness. Thoughts? |
