When Rallying is outlawed, only outlaws will rally: Redwood Rendezvous IV
Rich and I are putting the finishing touches on the route instructions for this year's redwood rendezvous road rally adventure tour and camping extraveganza, to be run the 28th and 29th of October.
We are looking at a "change of venue" that probably won't involve as many redwoods as previous incarnations, but will include a LOT more unpaved than any previous editions of this adventure have.
The sad part is that I have been told fairly directly that the adminstrators of this particular land aren't too keen on hosting Rallies, in fact they told me straight out that they would not permit such an event.
So we'll just have to say we are all out for a camping trip in case anyone asks, and that will be the truth.
Entries are VERY limited, and to avoid undue publicity, I would like to ask any prospective entrants to PM myself or bushido, we'll get you on the list and pass along all the key vital information as it becomes available.
If you have been on one of these before you know how fun they are, if you haven't, well- you can hardly imagine....

We'll be putting together the last touches on our wedding, prepping the car, and saving money for our wedding.
If it weren't so close to Laughlin Adventure Rally/wedding (same trip) I'd be entering.

Roo, really sorry to hear that but there are no posh cabins near where we'll be camping this year anyway- so you guys wouldn't have enjoyed it so much.
See you in Laughlin though.
