So I follow a popular mountain biking forum and one of the cool things that they have that I don't (or haven't) found here is a sort of trail forum that gives specific directions to get to the trail, the difficulty of the trail and a map of the trail. I think that's a great tool, but I think it...

I see a lot of questions about what rig is the best rig for overlanding, what is needed on a rig and/or what rig to buy to get started. So I wanted to post a thread to encourage all of you to get out there with what you have, because ultimately, it's your experience that will get you further...
