US East Northern VA / MD Monthly Meetups

[phlfly]

Meadow knob is nice unless it can be really windy. At lake side entrance has few spots.

Well I think it needs date than see how many will go. Another thing is I thought will be Sat and Sun . So Sat get together and sun go home. Many people working on Fridays.

Ok, I spoke with the owners of Wilderness Winery on rte 3. They do buisness with us. The are happy for us to have a meet there. They said there are trails to ride and, even though they had never done this before, they would let us camp there. I told them i was thiking fall as grape harvest is approaching quickly. I would be up to meeting with some body out there if they want to look aroundand see what it's like. IDK quite how you could organize this on here as thre isn't a lot of activity.

We’re up for pretty much anything... we live about 5 minutes from the winery on Rt 3 so could check that out most anytime. Chris, we met down at Pocahontas SP last Fall, you had your TM and we were there with our Cricket.

I remember you well. That'll work just let me figure out when it may be an evening after work. I don't see where this will violate any Covid distancing requirements s we will be outside. I will have to coordinate with the boys at wilderness before we go so they will be there. This will most likely be an early fall event but e can check it out before then for sure then comence with plans

I'm in for something. Changing up my setup on the Jeep and waiting on my new bed rack...hoping to have it in a week or two and eventually (12-16 week lead time :/ have a Gobi Stealth rack on order too)...But my RTT will be mounted again as soon as the new bed rack is here. If you all decide to do something soon, I'll just pop up my dome tent.

I apologize in advance, you'll have to speak up for me to hear you from my full size castle in the woods.

The winery sounds like a great idea! I'm interested in a meetup / campout. If it involves a winery, my wife would likely be interested as well. No RTT yet, so it would be a ground tent. Let me know if you do a recon/meetup ahead of time...I live about 30 minutes away.

Keep me posted - I may be interested as well. If not for camping, just to drop in and say hello to the boys.

No worries, Jake. I am thinking of putting a 36” lift on my rig so we can talk easier. Lol.

- Set up camp and hike to lookout tower
- Back for lunch then wheel a bit
- Back for dinner and maybe do a night run

You know the route and plan. I can meet anywhere along the way or at destination. I’ll be in a Gray ‘13 Tundra on 35’s. Might be with 1-3 teenage boys. Can text at 703 881 8556 David

A little sad I have a trip planned for the Paw Paw/Cumberland area now. Highly recommend this for those who haven’t explored the GWNF area, beautiful and peaceful land with little to no contact while out camping.

What ever happened with the flying circus?

Life happened. Got busy and it went to the back burner. Thanks for the reminder - I’ll circle back with them on Monday....or if I go to the show this Sunday now that it’s on my mind!
