I'm definitely up for a mini-meet. Not sure if there are any good trails in the Hampton Roads area, but if you guys feel like taking a spin down to the OBX I know of some fun places to drive the beach. Not as extreme as the rock-crawling I see going on in Moab, but the scenery is beautiful and it's one of the few places in the world you can get stranded in the sand alongside actual shipwrecks.
Time will be my enemy though, I've got a little girl on the way in late February so the sooner the better, otherwise it might have to be several months out.
