And an article from our old friend Jeff Dozier!!!!!

Took delivery of the latest issue last week, but haven't had a chance to read it. Anything of note from folks who've read it?

I did notice they have a new section called “Featured Cruisers” and it now ships in clear plastic like other magazines instead of a paper TLCA envelope.

FYI, the return to plastic is a stopgap measure until paper becomes readily available and affordable again.

I’ve submitted 4 articles over the last few years and all have been printed which clearly demonstrates how desperate for content they are.

Just arrived yesterday... Haven't had a chance to read the articles yet. Anyone been to the Great Smoky Mt Trail Ride? Looks like a good event.

I haven't been to GSMTR since it moved from Tellico. That was a magical place and where I first met the Bascoms. Those were the days!

I agree, Tellico was a very special place and back then and GSMTR had a very special vibe. Including BK, I met a number of interesting characters at GSMTR. I've been to GSMTR once at Windrock and it was a completely different event, not bad, just different.

Looks like trail 5 creek crossing coming out. Yes that was a special place, I do not think there will ever be another place like that. I met a lot of good people down there.

Banjo music?

 

[mwalls54]

That too.

 

[Crusha]

Calliopes AND banjos?

I smell a demented Stephen King remake of deliverance here somewhere...

 

[Diff Kraken]

Hot off the press…

Haven’t had time to read it yet. Looks like a good one. ONSC, Cruisers on the Rocks, a solo trip in a 40 across the French Alps and much more.

 

[iptman]

Lifted 60s just look right.

The new issue arrived seemingly early. Sounds good to me.

Nevada, Utah, Colorado, growing up with an FJ40 in NY state, a printed add for Relic Run (April 20-23), and travel through Russia and the nearby stans while trying to escape Central Asia during COVID border closures in a 1984 BJ45:
