Texas Off-Roadeo 3/29/25

[JediOkie]

I’m going to be there the next day on the 30th but I’m driving down from Oklahoma on the 29th.

Well I can’t read. I’m going to the one on May 30th in Texas not March….

Wait, do I have this correct?: 9 hours of indoors (and things like lunch, etc.) and 3 hours in a Bronco?

I signed up for mid March Moab, but I might want to just hit the trails in my own Bronco if this is the program...after watching various youtube videos I was thinking it all might be too intro for me in any case.

I did both Texas and Moab. Both were excellent but Moab had probably 3x the seat time. Also, the high speed course in Texas was limited to about 25 mph because we were told with the lower air pressure in the tires the beads might pop. Enjoy your ride!

It was amazing. I couldn't believe what they let us do with those Bronco's. I can't imagine this will last forever. Some idiot is going to ruin this, you can just tell.(it was that good) All really great things come to fast close. That was worth the price of the Bronco for me and Family. We had four in one Bronco. Ace was another reason why we had the best time.

I was in Jay's group. Jay was awesome as well.

I can't say enough good things about the instructors really. Very knowledgeable, very patient, and made sure we all had fun and learned some things.

A video shared with me by @TX RED from this past Saturday.

Yep, Moab Off-Roadeo was quite good. Thankfully, the 'in class' introductory section was relatively short and less "101" then I had anticipated. By mid morning we were on the Dome Plateau trail for the rest of the day. Those of us with experience were glad to have the instruction/spotting for some of the more difficult ledges and descents. Our groups instructor "Michael" was knowledgeable and a good teacher.

I learned some useful tips, but nothing major. At the end of the day the course is designed for beginners - not that most are "beginners" by the end as it is quite good. I probably would have regretted going to one of the other locations that have less trail/seat time however.

We had zero class time unless you count walking around outside while different student demonstrated the various features. I think the format has changed from what I have heard. It is now a one-day class, and they feed you lunch and dinner.

Yeah, I felt like we had plenty of seat/trail time. The morning demos of the different features was good too. I learned quite a lot from those demos.

Anyone else scheduled for TX on June 26th?

It's great to see everyone sharing their experiences from the Off-Roadeo! It looks like an incredible time. The pictures are awesome. I'm always looking for new gear and tips. What's one piece of gear you can't go off-roading without?

Answer varies depending on location/circumstances, but here in the desert SW "the" answer is probably water - enough water for everyone to be able to hike back (in hot conditions) to civilization in case of a vehicle break down...
