November club gathering and off road fun - Sat Nov 21st

#1 Post by ANDYD » Sat Nov 14, 2015 3:12 pm

We have a one day Club run in the Squamish area this Saturday, RL member Shad has agreed to give us another tour of some trails new and improved from last year on his privately owned land near Squamish.

What - Berubies Squamish one day off-road Run
When - Saturday 21st November, meeting at Squamish Tim Hortons at 9.00am for coffee, departing at 9.30am sharp
(note- there is more than one Tim Hortons in Squamish, we will be meeting at this one - 38930 Progress Way;
http://goo.gl/maps/bVGdO
Why - Come out and try out the off road course or feel free to park at the base camp just spectate and be social and get some good mountain air in your lungs!
What else - Bring a packed lunch or pick up lunch at Tim's in the morning. Expect some tight, technical fun trails, to be driven slowly and carefully. The off road course is only about 1 km long so feel free to walk it through first. Most of the gnarly obstacles have a bypass option.
We are right on the Sea to Sky highway so you can head home at anytime you need to.

Post up if you are coming out so we know to look out for you .....
Cheers,
Andy

I'll be there! Shad's is always an adventure. Being a contained location, everyone can be as adventuresome or as cautious and they want to be. - something for everyone. :D

Thanks, Shad!

I scored free Canucks tickets for Saturday, so (yet again!!) I will not make it.

The Brasilian overlander couple, Roy and Michele, has just contacted me. They and their Defender camper may be joining us at this event. They were in Banff a few days ago and are trying to make it to this event in Squamish at 9.00 am.
Here is more info on their travel around the world:

Are we still using 146.46 on the ham radio for this event?

Hey, that's great news Andrew. It's always nice to have new people. They sound interesting.

Yes, we're always on the frequency you mentioned. Shad's people may have a different one, so there may be some swapping back and forth.

Good turn out of Land Rovers, beautiful weather, Shad was a great host as always....

Quite the challenging new loop that the Too Far Off Road boys had created.

Also, awesome to meet & chat with Roy and Michelle on their around the world trip adventure.
