Greetings from South Africa.

I am writing to inquire about the upcoming G45 celebrations in Graz, Austria next year.

As devoted G-Wagon enthusiasts, we are eager to join the festivities and be part of this milestone event.

We want to plan ahead if possible from our G-Wagen Club SA's side.

Is there anyone from a club or MB, who knows what is planned?

Assistance is greatly appreciated.

Itinerary to be determined
Hope to spend some time with Harald and Karl as possible. Two options, either quick trip down to BC Sur and subsequent area adventures or week long drive down with lots of rough track on the way, finishing in BC Sur. My plan is to fly home May2 from Cabo airport and return later for northward version. One to two other Gwagens already somewhat committed.]]> http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=24330

The G-amboree is a unique G Meeting in Europe, with G owners from 10-15 countries.
More Info: www.gamboree.info

We made it this year in one of the best Golf Resort of Europe.
It was good for the families, for the food and for the registration team.
In 200m (0,1 MPH) was the hotel and the apartmans for the G onwers.
next by the Golf Resort are a lot of offroad tracks, so we could make a more offroad programs this year.
We had over 80 G's and the best G companies: PUCH, ORC, Scheel-mann SEATS, LeTECH, UNGER :wave:

Here are the first pictures, about the registraion, G parking, the Golf Resort, and about the first meeting point :cheers:

Took the I-84 out through Oregon into Idaho and picked out a spot at City of Rocks. We were the only campers there so it was nice. Snowing and blowing all night, but the temps never dipped below 22 deg F. Beautiful location, we are definitely going back come summer time. The road out was a county road that dropped into Utah with up to 2" snow on it and occasional ranch truck tracks to boost our confidence in the route]]> http://pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.asp?tid=23086
2016 New Mexico G Treffen
October 2 – 8

William McBride cell – 505-780-0727 – email – 1wmcbride1@gmail.com
James Opel Cell – 505-453-5510 – email – jimbojimjames@gmail.com

Sunday, October 2nd – noon – Meet and Greet lunch at OCD (Marc Beyer’s and Francis Sayre’s shop) in Santa Fe – hang out, eat, drink, check out bunch of cool G’s, meet a bunch of the Europa guys.

OCD is located at 1315 Rufina Circle, Santa Fe NM, 87507

Sunday afternoon– after the OCD party head to camp at a remote private site on an old Indian Pueblo about 20 miles south of Santa Fe – hot showers – porta potties (new and clean) - party patio seats 60 – Mexican style “disco” dinner prepared by Charlie and Jose – drinking by a bonfire… I’ll provide a separate set of directions from OCD to the Pueblo Camp.

Monday, October 3rd – Breakfast burritos (we’ll have enough for everyone to make one for lunch) - Follow Rich Romero to the Bonanza Creek Ranch Movie sets for a private tour - Monday afternoon will allow plenty of time for people to get supplies for the backcountry trip, gas up etc - return to the pueblo for dinner (Charlie and Jose) - hang out – take G pics - drink - make G videos using drones - drink some more…


The Backcountry Adventure

Stock your own food, beverages, camping gear etc. I’ll be bringing the disco (giant wok that’ll cook for 40) so anybody can use it to cook. If anybody needs or forgets any gear just let us know, James and I have tons of gear. We’ll have fuel stops along the route as needed; suitably spaced for the range of a stock G. Scenery will be diverse and epic. With the exception of one section on the first day the roads will be maintained gravel.

For those who might be joining us along the route just let me know what day/time you will be arriving and we will arrange a time/location for a rendezvous with the group. The same goes for departures.

Tuesday, October 4th – Breakfast Burritos (different flavor than before with enough for us to pack a lunch) – pack up and hit the trail - We should shoot for a 10:30 departure – head down the Old La Bajada road and lift some wheels, take the dome road thru the Jemez and camp by the El Rito de Las Vacas (streambath!) – I usually do this route in about 4 hours but with a group it’ll probably be 5 ½ - 6 hours. The day will be around 25% asphalt, 75% dirt. Camp #1 is essentially about 50 miles WNW of Santa Fe as the crow flies. This day would be a good one for people who just want a daytrip and then return to Santa Fe for the evening.

Wednesday, October 5th – hit the road – gas up in Cuba, NM - head WSW into the Rio Puerco badlands – see a bunch of 800’ volcanic plugs, stop for lunch at an Anasazi kiva atop a 300’ spire – cross Mt Taylor – gas up in Grants, NM - continue South to camp #2 in the Sawtooth Mountains by Datil, NM. This is a dry camp in a very beautiful location. This day will be about 25% asphalt, 75% dirt and will be the longest day of driving – 6 - 7 hours depending on our pace so we should hit the road by 10am.

Thursday, October 6th – hit the road – top off gas in Datil, NM, head east into the Plains of San Augustine, turn south at the Very Large Array (worlds largest radio telescope) and head into the Gila National Forest. Camp #3 will either be at Snow Lake or along Willow Creek. We’ll make that call as the trip gets closer – dependent on the flow of the creek and whether we want sun or shade. This day will be about 20% asphalt, 80% dirt. Drive time will be about 3 ½ - 4 hrs. hours. There is a small store at the gas station in Datil that has very basic groceries – canned goods, bread, fresh local beef, onions, lettuce, booze, ice, chips – that’s about it.

Friday, October 7th – Layover Day – we’ll bury some meat on Thursday night – Umu style (wrapped in banana leaves) – dig it up and eat it for Friday brunch – it’ll be enough for lunch and dinner for everyone. This site is about 45 miles (as the crow flies) from the AZ border and within an hour and a half of the pavement between Glenwood and Reserve (the SW quadrant of NM). Once you hit the pavement you can go left and it takes you south towards I-10 and right takes you north towards I-40. This exit from the camp takes you down the epic road thru Mogollon, NM.

Saturday, October 8th – start making our way home. James and I might linger for another day in the Gila area as we have a hall pass thru Sunday. Another day of camping is a good day.

Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta – the largest hot air balloon gathering in the world runs October 1 – 9.

I am going to be traveling from Pennsylvania to California in the beginning of December 2016.

Its just me traveling in my 1989 W460.224 280GE I have had since 2007 and brought over from Dubai. Its a long story!

I was wondering if anyone had recommendations on extra parts to bring, good places to go for parts on the way, good routes, good camping sites, places to stay for free, travel tips, really any information would be helpful!

Here is a few pictures.

Thanks,

Nazem]]>
