OffRoading 101 for newbies in Marble Falls TX this Sunday
Myself and a few friends are putting on a very casual OffRoading 101 day at an offRoad park in Marble Falls Texas this coming Sunday March 12th.
It's free.. you just have to pay your own park fees.
There will be a brief talk, some demonstration, then hands on trails the rest of the day. It will be "stock" friendly and there will be some 5th gens in the mix.
We have a few spots left open (trying to keep it down to about 15 rigs). So, PM me if you are interested.
Can't make any promises on how good it will be. We are trying this for the first time after several people in our local club asked for a newbie friendly opportunity to get out and learn.

That kinda sucks.. I understand it is not really model specific, but there are a ton of new owners in the 5th gen section with with 0 experience.. The other sections typically have owners who have experience... I don't see what it hurts. There are plenty of similar threads over there and you don't move them.
Nobody will see it here.
Just trying to help people out.... Would it really hurt to have a post in there?

Wish I could make it too, but my daughter would not understand me missing her wedding.  I am very interested if you plan another get together this spring / early summer.
