Awfully liberal of you to offer my Jeep to someone..... //WTF//
:)  I wasn't sure how you'd react...I expected you to follow Justin's lead and threaten to throw a rock at my big stupid head. 

It's easy to offer someone else's stuff.  I figure, it really isn't going to matter...it's summer, so Doug won't wheel unless it's in Moab, even with someone else's rig.

Without going thru 5 pages of posts I will throw this in the mix... only a small handful of people here remember the days where we had a large group of trash mouthed redneck douche bags running this club into the ground. At times I almost ditched the club as it was a daily battle dealing with those morons. Rides were spent fixing rigs and trail recoveries and watching people drink all day on the trail to later become belligerent asshats. The club changed hands and Danny took over. We cleaned house 100% and ran them out and now we have the #1 club in the state IMO. Thanks to Danny, the staff and all the quality people in this group! Good people are the reason we are #1! I am VERY proud to be a part of this crew and all we stand for!
I've grown tired of this.

I ended up by chance joining a large group of Jeeps in driving in the July 4 parade in Cumming.  I found out that the were a combination of members of NGJ and a new club, Forsyth County (FOCO) Jeepers.  FOCO is mainly a FB group apparently, but they have a monthly meetup and do some easy rides (apparently Sheep Wallow quite a bit).

The Jeeps in the parade covered quite a variety from an older CJ to a couple of 4-door JKs.  I did see a good number with winch bumpers and light bars, but I got the impression that the social aspect is more important than wheeling.  One couple I talked to had a brand new Rubicon and had been to AOP, but only drove on the access roads.

In my view groups that love Jeeps and socialize around them make for fine clubs, and not sponsoring club rides doesn't mean they're dead.

Its summer, so Doug won't wheel unless it's in Moab,

Whose rig? Johns? Hell yeah I would, wait is got a 3rd pedal.

It's hard not to spend every minute I am breathing at this spot, especially in the summer.

I'll have an open seat...  I'm still trying to figure out what that 3rd pedal is for...

I don't blame you, very nice spot.

I think I'll be solo too. Not 100% though.

I was picking on you, of course, but I understand.

Kick ass club imo. We have a great staff AND great members.
This club wouldn't be crap without both. I know from a behind the scenes perspective that our staff works their ass off and it shows. Our rides are always organized and safe and the forum is always a pleasure.

I caught the tail end of that entire situation. I certainly wouldn't have lasted long if things hadn't changed...
