Hi all,

I just wanted to post a quick hello.

I'm in Southern New England and wanted to check this whole thing out. I like to camp and mountainbike, mainly I camp WHERE I mountainbike, more fun/cheaper than a hotel. I generally go up north to NH or VT to ride/camp, but I want to expand a bit this season.

Also, while my Volvo XC70 is a great car, I may be looking to build a more dedicated rig capable of doing more offroading than just dirt roads. I used to be into that about ten years ago when I had a ZJ Grand Cherokee, and after renting a JK Rubi in Moab last spring I've really grown to miss it.

So, two birds, one stone, etc with a new rig.

Anyway, looking to learn about everyone's rigs, camping ideas. and maybe meet some like minded folks in the area!

Welcome, glad to see another New Englander. Check out the overland bound east group, think they’re starting to put together a few trail/ meet ups for this upcoming season.
