Hey folks, this is great and I'm really glad to see the OB community expand beyond the forum with meet-ups. The face-to-face goes hand -in-hand with the boards... I have been a huge fan of OB from early on and have been involved with the Northern California Land Rover Club for almost 5 years. One thing we did was start monthly "regional" gatherings with the Peninsula "Drip in the Dirt". One thing I wanted to offer to this thread was that we picked a day/time (3rd Thursday of the month) with a home base of Alpine In in Portola Valley and we move around locally from there. In the Sacramento Region, they fell into a potluck at a member's driveway and that has been a great format up there for the past few months...
Just an idea and I know there is a lot of planning that goes into getting these off the ground - I applaud the effort and completely respect the process ;-)
Fwiw, our BOD meeting is Saturday 11/21 in Walnut creek so if there will be a meet in the East bay on Saturday afternoon, there could be more than a few of us that would love to stop by...just a thought if it works...
Either way, I look forward to this coming together and meeting some of the overland bound crew in person!
Cheers,
Tom
