What an awesome write-up! Linking to it so others can enjoy: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...gh-bronco-off-roadeo-tennessee-review.102206/

I'm glad y'all had fun and could go with friends; I haven't seen Ashley since Super Cel West 22. Glad you and your wife had a great day with good people!

Ha ha! Yep that's me. 😊

Can't wait til Super Cel East 25. Hope to either join or arrange a ride up at Windrock during as well.

I'm jealous of myself. Are you doing Bronco Nation member day Nov 22 or does the Nation have @London?

It would have been awesome to have you there on the 22, but I'll say that I've never NOT done Off-Roadeo with cool people in any group. Sounds like you can help lead the charge on Saturday!

We went on Oct 12 and it was a blast. Our guide was very good and pretty funny as well. He said he tried to hurry out to the first position broken but was beaten by a guide that is a windbag. Our guide wanted to get thru the demonstrations and get us in the vehicles and to the trails. I ended up in the lead Bronco. I had been on flat trails in sandy Florida and snow and iced covered roads in North Dakota and Alaska but nothing prepared me for nearly straight up and down trails in Tennessee. It was white knuckled fun. Not really all that scary but there was motivation not to damage a $65K borrowed vehicle. Not sure if the guide was pulling our leg or not but he said we were the first to go on one of the trails, so that made it even better. None of my pictures really captured the awesomeness of it all. Oh, the facilities were great but really the bathroom was pretty small. First time I ever saw a line of men waiting to use the facilities and no waiting for the ladies. LOL. The food for lunch was good and dinner was even better. Sasquatch made an appearance.

Maybe the only downside is that driving a Badlands at the event doesn't really show me what my Big Bend could do in the same situation. I have a 2.3L non-SAS with the stock tires (AT Bridgestone Duelers). It did come with a rear locker. In the Badlands only used the Rear and Front lockers a few times.

Anyone have an idea of driving time from the hotels in Maryville to the OffRoadeo?

The advertised places on the off roadeo site are within 30 min. or so. The town of Maryville is only about 10 miles from the basecamp site.

That's where I stayed. Perfect location for the Roadeo. Decent bar/restaurant there too.
