Let me begin by expressing my appreciation for iOverlander. We've relied heavily on it during our travels, particularly outside of the UK and Europe, where finding spots for wild camping or parking isn't as challenging due to the more relaxed relationship between locals and travellers. Many...

Hi @Michael @Kent R @Jim SoG Not sure if it has been covered but would it be possible to extend the same discounts to Armed Forces, Veterans and First Responders out with the USA. In the UK veterans can now be issued with government ID recognising they are Military Veterans. First Responders...

Through lock down we had a few fire side video chats that were quite successful with even Michael and Corrie jumping in one of the calls and as our member numbers here have grown since then and as we are getting closer to warmer weather I wondered if anyone would be interested in doing some...

Firstly apologies folks I am well aware I have been MIA from OB and the forums in recent months but sadly life and health have been getting in the way and throwing a spanner in the works. With that in mind I have recently had surgery (finally) and I'm hopefully on the mend so that's one issue...

As many of us now own and operate Drones in the UK I thought I would just put up some info I have learned / received as some of it was not clear. I, like many was under the belief that as I was flying a drone weighing less than 250g I did not need a license etc. This is partially true I have...

Region Rep and Local expert Stephen Waddle - @caspoint220 #OB12392 has just completed the Speyside Way Walk in aid of Veterans in Action raising over £900.00. I’ll be meeting up with him and a couple of members tonight at Dalraddy in Aviemore. He completed the 85 mile walk, wild camping in a...

It’s great to see our map filling up with POI’s but we are still a long way behind our US cousins. So please add your Points and we can make our map a massive resource for members. Remember when you add a POI it is automatically set as private and if you want to make it public you can do so...

Anyone heading away for the long weekend? We will be up near Aviemore, Scotland staying at the Dalraddy Campsite, in the woodland pitches where it can feel kind of wild but with electricity and proper toilets. The weather will dictate much of what we will be up to but it will include lots of...

This weekend we had members getting together to do Green Lanes in the Lake District, Tyre kick and socialise with good food in the South Of England and one member currently in camped in Spain on route to Morocco. This region has a large community and it is great to see what you are all up to...

We appreciate many members do not religiously log into their Overland Bound Account to check for mail, notifications or view the up and coming Rally Points. And this is fine as it allows members to flow in and out with Overland Bound as and when they need whilst balancing real life. We have all...

Please when creating Rally Points please use the invite option and invite all members within 50 miles of the Rally Point. 50 miles is the maximum distance you can set then select all members within that radius. This will include many members we don’t know or hear from. We are all aware that...

On longer overland journeys in more remote parts especially with your partner the subject of laundry will come up. On our longer trips taking months not days we carried 4 sets of underwear and T-Shirts, 2 pairs of trousers each and a couple of fleece style tops. We had space for a little more...
