yea i am not on facebook much during the school year i visit the school webpage this website and an occasional page for research. so it may have to wait until my first break at college. but i am a bit crazy so my baja will be plated and insured throughout the winter and will be taken out on the trails as much as possible! thus the winch Smile

so if anyone feels brave in the snow give me a message or pm me for my cellphone number and then give me a call. cars are my i need a break from homework mechanism.

Thanks for the invite, Ill get my request in in a bit. Sounds like you already have a good network set up on FB. What area of michigan are most of the guys from?

winchin73blazinbaja · Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2014 10:37 am Post subject:

no offense but that is the stuff that I dont like about some groups, exclusions. the rest of it all seems great. do not get me wrong i will join the page and probably hit a few trail rides and help set some up with you in my area. but why exclude someone due to having a different type of powerplant? I started this all in hopes of everyone that enjoys offroading whether it is a buggy, bug, thing, bus, shoot i dont care if you decide to bring a jeep along. as long as you come along, follow the rules of the trails and dont wreck it for the others. i dont see a reason for excluding everyone. yea it is sweet to go off with only vw based but sometimes it is smart to have some other types mixed in as well. not trying to gripe just stating my opinion.

If your vehicle is VW air-cooled themed you are welcome. Hell we even have guys that ride with us that have eco techs and ford 2.3's to name a few. They are welcome to join the page and join in on the fun they just can't get a Chapter sticker.[/quote]

I wasn't going to say anything, but I have to say I know exactly how Nate feels. I've been in big groups before; even been one of the originals. It's only a matter of time before any well meaning group forms a subgroup of dickheaded individuals who end up ruining things some way or another. I think if this little notion of a group decided to formalize I'd prolly blaze a trail on my own.

Some people feel the need to belong. Few people don't. I don't. Anarchy all the way, baby.

i am all for a big group of people but i got a baja bug because it mixed the best of both of my passions, i get a car and i can drive it off road, in all honesty i could go offroad by myself whenever i want i have trails within 5 minutes of my house that i could easily drive on for over 6 hours and not get bored. but it is more fun when i can go out with a group of people who are out there to just have fun, chat and tear up some earth. that is why I am so excited to be able to hit the trails with graveshaker and OC again. they are just two easy going guys that like to hit the trails with whomever or whatever decides to join in.

Not at all suggesting we exclude people with the FB thing just another way to connect with fellow vw or other off road people. Im game for whatever come next year when my rail actually runs and drives. Untill then Ill be in the garage in holland if anyone wants to stop by and have a beer and bench race.

No hurt feelings here guys, but let it be known we don't exclude people because of there power plant, we just don't offer membership. If you do not have a vw based aircooled motor, you are still welcome to join in on the fun. You can join the page and ride with us. The only benefit you don't recieve is being able to get one of our chapter stickers and being able to call yourself a member.

We are called Aircooled Hooligans after all that is the reason and basis for only allowing aircooled motors.

Our page is first and foremost a place to gather and share a wealth of knowledge about our sport and most importantly plan rides with the people of Michigan. We are a great group of people that are comprised of the youngest to the most veteran persons in the buisness today.

pretty late in the season now, but since there are a number of us from the same area, what about any backroad cruises? ( for those that are road legal)
