- In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Part of the trick is to figure out what works in your area. I've tried a couple times to do a meet-n-greet and it hasn't worked. I've had moderate success with overlanding trips. First time was the Georgia Traverse. Robbie Mangrum and his sine, Zane joined me for part of that trip. This year, I tried a meet-n-greet at a cool scenic overlook. I even offered to provide hot dogs. Not takers. But, a few weeks later, I planned a camping trip for the same location. Robbie and Zane joined me, as did Senornoob.if you guys can hook me up with a younger tiger, I kind of know what to do, just very hard for me to get it done these days. Also, it seems like the majority of you guys want to break your trucks running over rocks and into riverbeds. I don’t know much about that, so I teamed up with a mountain daredevil, it might make a good combination. Food for thought.
I know there are a couple other members within 30 miles of me and at least another 1/2 dozen close enough to come to a picnic or gathering at a restaurant or park. Finding out what interests those people enough to bring them out is the hardest part.
I be got an idea or two I'm kicking around for a n east coast meet next year, possibly in West Virginia.
