We've had one rigs & coffee earlier this month, so we figured we'd have another. This one is going to be at Halmich Park on 13 Mile in Warren, MI. I'll bring the coffee ( donations will be welcome but are not necessary). This is a fairly large park so we should be okay with a good number of...

Pre order links for shirts and patches are live on the store site (store.michiganoverland.com), link for hats are coming this weekend.If that doesn’t work for you, message me with what you’d like and I will send a PayPal invoice to you. Shipping is free as always. Once we hit the minimum the...

Welcome, welcome. We've got a pretty good Facebook group established, lots of discussion there, a website with some info, and this post that we hijacked! [emoji2] Overlanding is still pretty new to Michigan but there are plenty of places to go. If you ha e any questions shoot a message our way...

We map with Gaia and have a few routes on the site that we've been on and mapped. www.michiganoverland.com/home/maps Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

First vehicle was a 2002 Tahoe, current vehicle let is a 2004 Suburban. Both are solid platforms albeit larger. The downside is the lack of hang-ons. Meaning, the availability of aftermarket overlanding parts is pretty low and when you do find items they're expensive. Sent from my VS995 using...

I think you got into it, just approved your account this morning. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

It's posted to the Facebook group right now. Haven't integrated events back into the website yet. Memorial weekend, one day at Rocks and Valleys (Saturday), and then possibly one day at the Roscommon State Forest Area. (Sunday). Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

Not so much blogging as a more magazine style(?) site for me. www.michiganoverland.com Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

A few announcements: 1) The store is in a soft open status (michiganoverland.com/shop/). Currently, the only offerings are 5 different types of stickers and one refrigerator magnet. The quantities are low, about 10 per item for the stickers and about 20 for the magnet. Payment is done through...

We've got some northern Michigan and a few UP folkson the Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/michiganoverland). I'm also planning a trip to the UP for September to coincide with the Keeweenaw Overland Adventure Retreat (Sept 13-18). I'm shooting to go up the weekend prior and work...

I'm looking for info on routes that follow closely to and around the Great Lakes regions. So through Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Canada, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Indiana. Anything works as long as it's close-ish. I've got a map of the Trans Wisconsin already but I'd be open to other...

The events I’ve held and been on where all dirt/fire roads. Nothing too hardcore. I drive a Suburban and sleep in the back of it. I haven’t hit anything I was overly concerned with. If MO hosts any events I try and make it friendly to all vehicles. No rock crawling or anything that could...

I've been trying to get something working for cross communication between our Facebook group and the OB folks who don't use Facebook. I've got something stood up that is similar to how Facebook works on the site. I could use some people to test it out. Shoot me a message if you're interested...

I don't have anything planned group wise yet. We do have a member sponsored event Memorial weekend at Rocks & Valleys. In September well also be up in the UP for the Keeweenaw Overland Adventure Retreat. The plan there is to do some camping and site seeing on the way to it. No details on that...

Yes sir, seems to be working [emoji16] I surpassed UP Overland which used to be the number one spot. Now just need to work the adventure angle and pass Michigan Adventure. Sent from my iPad using Overland Bound Talk

It was either Patreon, Kickstarter, or run a members only section. Patreon seems the best because I can scale up or down depending on the amount of funds coming or going. I know there's some people who aren't happy with Patreon and how they're currently doing business. There aren't many...

I thought it was an amusing name so I left it [emoji3] plus I don't take myself seriously. I've got sticker samples on order to see how they turn out before I go full on with it. I'll post some pictures when I get all of them in so everyone e can see. Sent from my VS995 using OB Talk mobile app

I posted a few weeks back on Facebook about the possibility of running a Patreon. I've got a document atached that provides a rough idea of what the cost could be per month/year, what sort of content we would create with it, and the goal levels at which we would start creating it. As always...

Alright, asked about vendors at the KOAR event. Attached is what I received from the organizers. I do also know that Midwest Overland Training will be there and running a few classes. If I hear anymore or you'd like to know something specific let me know and I'll ask. Sent from my VS995 using...

I will ask your questions to one of the organizers. I do know the limit on rig was 100, so maybe about 30o people total(?), don't quote me on that. No idea on vendors other than booths were offered to some of the groups involved to sell their stuff. Sent from my VS995 using OB Talk mobile app
