Had a BLAST!! 14 Rivians showed up for a novice Off Road Adventure at Maryland's Greenridge state forest. A few of them even took a dip in the River. I had so much fun creating this video. Should I go again? What would you gals/guys like to see?

It was fun being out there with MARC for the novice off-road. I really enjoyed getting to know a bunch of you as well.

I have done NERC's AOAA offroad 101 and 201 courses with Offroad Consulting, and I HIGHLY encourage anyone that's even the least bit curious about their Rivians' off-road to attend.

There's a 101 this fall that my wife will be driving my truck through, and I'll be co-piloting. I really hope to see some of you out there! (it's kiddo friendly too--my big guy loved taking photos and checking out the scenery, plus he got some fanfare from some special guests we had on that course and brought home some awesome stickers!)

If you're not already aware of it, details are here: https://northeast.rivianclubs.org/e...lub-late-fall-2024-one-day-off-roading-event/

The more of us that can wheel, the more opportunities we should have for fun outdoor adventures and get-togethers! (I need off-road friends!!!)

Thanks for the video, Ken. Enjoyed meeting you and so many others. Huge thanks to @kanundrum for coordinating. And, yes, these trails were 22-in wheel friendly.
Likewise! As I said in the video, one of the best parts about owning a Rivian is the community of other Rivian Owners.

Is there much activity in New England? PA is too far for me to do anything there. Interested in the idea!

I have no idea if there are other off-roading gatherings anywhere else throughout NE. This is the only one I'm aware of, that also happens to be hosted by NERC. If I see anything else, I'll let you know.

That said, we've had people come in from as far as Illinois and (I think) Massachusetts. It's definitely worth the education, in my opinion!

@R1Thor - Please keep posting these events...I'd love to be able to make it to one, but the calendar just hasn't worked out. The full-sized spare was also a show-stopper for me because I don't yet have one, but it sounds like you have that covered as well. Please post some video of the event on November 23rd - I'd love to see it!
