Recently I was in Dharmasala, in the Northern part of India for two weeks or so. As we were in the Himalayas and I REALLY wanted to find some off-road adventure, but we were A) not in a place that offered any tours and B) I didn’t know anybody there. Too soon it was time to head back to New Delhi for a few days…
Two years ago I replaced the carb on the Mog and thought I fixed it. I was wrong, I didn’t.
The plan was initially set into motion in July of 1995. I had spent a winter and a the better part of a summer living in Winter Park, Colorado and was sad to be departing, but as I had totally run out of funds, I figured that I probably should get serious and get a real job. As I was leaving I remember saying to my…
This isn’t a new question! I’m sure you’ve all been thinking similar thoughts, for similar situations. But each situation is unique, so wanted to see what you would choose for my situation, because frankly, my brain is about to explode. I’ve been turning this over in my brain for months and am driving myself (and I’m…
The Western Slope of Colorado isn’t what most people think of when they think of Colorado. Thinking about Colorado usually conjures up images of the majestic and beautiful Rocky Mountains, and now, yeah, weed. But just as interesting is the terrain on the western edges of the Rockies, where the land slowly, gradually…
This is rather awesome. Does your favorite tire win??
Remember when we all had a good chuckle because of the sudden unexpected snow storm at Overland Expo West? Not to be outdone, Overland Expo East had a freaking Hurricane hit on it’s watch. Hurricane Joaquin didn’t slam into North Carolina, but it did come close enough to leave seven days of wind and rain behind. So…
It’s going down October 2-4 in lovely Asheville, NC. I will be there, anyone else?
Bruiser (aka B) is headed to the undercarriage man for a new transmission. She decided she doesn’t want to go backwards anymore. Shifts into reverse, but it doesn’t engage. Ever.
One of the hardest things about buying a truck topper for you truck is figuring out what the hell to call the thing. Is it a truck topper? Is it a camper top? Is it a cap? A lid? I figured the smart thing to do would be to allow the fine listers of Craigslist clarify it for me. Here’s the kind a typical ad I…
“Autonomous vehicles are going to revolutionize road trips.” This is the thought that popped into my head on hour 10 of a 15 hour drive. Normally the thoughts that flit in and out of the cranium at this juncture aren’t to be trusted, but this is a good one. I swear.
About five or so years ago my buddy Jason invited me along to a party at the shop of a guy he used to weld with. A guy named Fuller.
Do you see what I see? A swath of forest stretching from just north of Atlanta to just west of Washington, D.C.
I’m heading out on the road tomorrow, journeying from Atlanta to Plattsburgh, NY, so I think I’m going to see how much of this trip I can make within those green boundaries - hopefully a good portion on dirt…
For a while I’ve been considering getting a topper/camper top for my 2013 Tacoma. The main reason I haven’t gotten one is because I occasionally haul a KTM EXC 450 up to the hills to play in the dirt. Because of this need, I went with a snap-on tonneau cover. It does great at hiding things and is relatively easy to…
One of the things you may not know about Atlanta is that it is a great jumping off point for outdoor exploring. The north Georgia mountains provide easy access to great driving roads such as the Tail of the Dragon and hundreds of thousands of acres of national forest land. I've spent many years camping, hiking and…
On today's episode of Freaky Friday I present this wildebeest:
While we're talking about media....what, if any, overlandy type Instagrams do you follow?
and it looks awesome.
I got bored yesterday and made an homage to my 78 Corona Wagon. I created the silhouette and logo in photoshop, and used a photo of the patina on the car for the background, etc.
I made this for no apparent reason.
