Austringer...need to put your location on your profile...but welcome! Hope you really enjoy the site. Now...with respect to a GA rally, I believe that is currently in the works, but sometime around August or September time frame. You'll definitely see it come up on the SS site though, so keep tuned!

Andy

Hey Jason, welcome.

Yes, I am planning this year's get-together. Last September, we had one at my house. See description (and pics) here:

http://steelsoldiers.com/index.php?n...pic&t=7541

I am working on securing an area for this year's off-roading. Last year, we got access to a neighborhood that was being built for our trailride. I am trying to get something more significant for this year's event.

I have gotten commitments from several folks who are willing to drive a very long distance, so I want to make sure that they have enough fun and things to do to justify the time (and expense) of driving so far.

So far, I have 2 options. I may have access to about 450+ acres of undeveloped land that we could play on, about 45 minutes from my house. We could have a convoy from my place out to this area.

The second option was a recommendation from RmGill, he suggested riding up to North Georgia and climbing some forresty service roads to the peak of a mountain.

I am still exploring options. You can PM me with suggestions or questions.

We will be doing this sometime in late September or October, I only want to do this when the weather is nice. There will be an alternative rain date this year as well.

Sounds great, keep me informed. It will be next year before I get the T114 going unless I get a massive influx of time and money (more time is needed right now, lol).

I hope to be able to attend with my M37. I hope to have the disc brakes and mastercylinder finished on it in a few weeks. Keep me posted.

Just a head's up from a planning standpoint: The 2nd Annual N.C. Military Vehicle Show will be held on September 8th 2007 at the Propst Crossroads Vol. Fire Dept in Newton NC.

If you can schedule the Georgia get together on a different weekend, it'll would perhaps keep folks from having to make a choice between attending one or the other (for those that could manage to swing both, such as myself...).

Great to hear that you are getting an event together again this year. Hopefully, I can make it.

I agree with Garbee, as we would definitely love to make both this year. Choosing would be very difficult. We are looking forward to seeing everybody again, and doing both (if possible) seems the best way to do that!!
