    Alright TW I have a question, or maybe a request? I work a non standard schedule that has me taking my days off during the week most of the month and one 3 day weekend one week of the month. That means that I can't rely on weekend meets for getting off road. Are there any members here that have the same type of schedules that would be interested in meeting up? My next day off will be this coming Tue. I am brand new to driving off road and would be looking for some easy trails to begin with.

    I live in Pomona. Fairly central to San Bernardino and Angeles forest. Would you be up for a drive sometime. I had my eye on some of the trails in Big Bear

    I used to have a schedule with a weekday off. I’m M-F now.

    Hopefully this picks up for those of you with weekdays off. Free bump :fistbump:

    Don't hate on your 2wd. I have made many people upset with 2wd and a heavy foot and planned trail direction. You're above me with power vs my old 5" lift and 4cyl power, base model.

    I'm available during the week. Just need to know the week before. I work for myself, gotta keep the customers happy!

    In redlands and down for some of the closer stuff that's less busy than the weekends. My buddy is off e/o Fridays which might open up more folks to getting a smaller group going.

    All right guys, I ended up going to Big Bear with a couple of co-workers. We drove up Clark's grade and...I'm hooked!!!! I'll be going out again as soon as I can. I'm thinking of doing Bee Canyon. Is there a permanent thread where I can post my planned ride so I can get some of you guys to join me?

    I have Monday Tuesdays off, I have decent experience offroading and a lot of that being my buddy's spotter more than driving, so I'd want to start out on medium/easy trails first too. At least until I armor up, so I'm down to go for sure. Probably be free starting July so message me what you're thinking and I'll almost always be in.

    I'm glad to see this thread getting some traction, I'm not available this week but I should have Thursday off next week. Anyone up for doing bee canyon? I'm also open to suggestions.
