We will be on Ch 2. Let's try to gather around at 2:45 and start to move at 3:00 o'clock. We will end the drive at about 6:00 pm. we will find a very busy areas in the middle. Request all members who will participate to install Garmin Tread app on your phone and set up with your credentials. I will share a group drive code at the start of the drive and will request all participants to join the group drive. Garmin Tread App will help us to track all members in the convoy should there be any break in the convoy. Garmin Tread App does not record GPS Track, hence you would still want to use Gaia GPS or your favorite GPS App that you use to record the drive. Please however ensure that you exit the group drive after you have finished the drive - otherwise it will keep sharing your location.
