Adventure Chrysler Jeep Dodge is proud to sponsor the 2012 Spring NEOhio Off Road Jamboree and Trail Ride at Fischer's Pine Lake. Lots of great Jeeps, ATVs and people got ::slightly:: muddy last fall, but we're warmed up and ready to take to the trails again.
Here are some details from Lake County Off Road:
Trail difficulty [2 out of 5] - Motocross track difficulty [4 out 5].
* The trail leaders from Lake County Off Road and other NE Ohio ATV & Jeep organizations will be holding driver/rider meetings starting promptly at 8:30AM and again @ 1PM The meetings will provide basics and provide general advice and guidance to first timers. At the conclusion of the meeting riders/drivers can strike out and explore on their own or join the instructors and guides for a low impact ride on the trails where the only thing that gets dirty will be your wheels. The trails at Pine Lake are nice & wide and there is little risk of scratches or scrapes from branches.
These briefings are a great way for any one new to the sport of off roading or to the NEO event to get started and try out their vehicle. The after meeting guided tours will also be the only guided tours of the day, meet promptly at the designated times next to the registration/check-in building just across from the TT track.
* 4-Wheel Parts of Cleveland will be joining us and will be holding a short proper recover techniques seminar demonstrating the use of tow straps, snatch blocks and winches for Jeeps and Full Size 4x4's.
* Jeeps/Trucks Show -n- Shine competition hosted by Adventure Jeep Chrysler Dodge will be for those who want to enjoy the day but not get dirty. This is your chance to shine up your vehicle and see if your vehicle can win this spectator judged event. Prizes will be award for 1st, 2nd & 3rd place.
* Jeeps/4x4's and any street legal vehicles interested in a spring tour of 3 of Ashtabula counties covered bridges can meet the tour guides from Lake County Off Road at the registration building promptly at 1:00PM for this 2 hour off-site tour.
Don't miss the opportunity to see and drive across the longest covered bridge in the United States right here in NE Ohio. Be sure to bring your cameras for several fantastic photo opportunities. Maps will be provided to each vehicle and we encourage everyone to bring a handheld FRS radio for special messages and so your guides can communicate with you along the route.
