Spoiler
1. Do not blow up vehicles or shoot anyone
2. If you don't arrive to a meet on time, I will add a player from the reserve list. Invites will normally be sent out 20 minutes before the start.
3. Please do not overtake the lead rider. It's usually good form to ride in pairs if the route allows. (if you want to free roam, why join a meet?)
4. Respect other players; yes it's GTA and anything goes in normal play, however The Sanchez Experience runs on people enjoying the meet and abusive behaviour will be result in you being kicked out of the meet. if anyone is kicked, their Gamer tag will be passed to the organisers of other off-road meets and will probabaly be banned as a result.
5. Please don't rock up in a Bati or Nemesis etc. Sanchez only.

All previous event posts will be stored in the spoiler below so you can what we get up to
Spoiler
It's a coast to coast ride with a difference...
We meet on the West coast and by sticking as close to the shoreline as possible, we make our way all around the map to the East coast.
The C2C2C will be mainly in freeroam with 4 short 'creator' sections to enable us to negotiate deep water and other obstacles.
Apart from 2 short race sections (which will be made clear on the night) we will work together and help each other to get around in one piece.
If anyone loses their Sanchez to the sea no problem, we'll wait while you jump on the back of someones bike, make your way to the road for a replacement. (only $100 insurance from Mors Mutual)
When we get to the East coast we turn around and it's a 'freeroam' race back to the start however to ensure everyone follows the same route you will be tasked to visit a couple of specific places before finishing.
Over the past few months the Sanchez has seen action negotiating the urban playground in Sanchez in the city and taking part in multiple events testing the bike and rider in the Sanchez Olympics.
As a result, its off-roading prowess has been yet again confirmed (it was never in question!) but theres an area where it is yet to shine and prove itself; racing!
Yes, there are Akumas, Batis etc but dont discount the Sanchez. While it cant match the superbikes in sheer power, its combination of safe secure handling and relative good speed means it shouldnt be discounted.
To prove its worth, join me as we take the Sanchez racing, starting with races in the city before following the Motorway/Freeway from West Los Santos clockwise through Paleto Bay and Blaine County before arriving back in the city for the final race.
The races will be conducted on sections of motorway with minimal excursions off-road. Off-road sections are only used to enable the flow of the circuit.
All of the circuits have been designed to be as free flowing as possible with minimal slow sections but of course therell be plenty of jumps!
This is raw Sanchez racing so therell be no custom bikes allowed, so the racing is as fair as possible.
If youre relatively new to the Sanchez or biking in general, then this is the event for you but if youre a competent rider who knows how to throw a bike around then this is also for you!
How to join in...
Please leave your GT after reading the rules in the spoiler.
One rule I will stress is there will be no killing or blowing up of any personal vehicle whatsoever either before or during the event. If you attract the Police, please dont engage them. Instead, try and get Lester to lose the cops or simply commit suicide. (the cost of suicide will probably out way the cost of ammo to fight them)
I will kick you if I think you killed or destroyed on purpose.
Once the event of declared over; you can go on a killing spree if thats your thing.

The Sanchez Olympics have arrived in Los Santos!
It's time to pull on your short shorts, grab your coolest looking t-shirt and lace up your trainers for the sports event of 2015!
The running order of Olympic events will be;
Sanchez and Olympian voting - who looks the best.
Boxing. Round 1
Hurdles
Slalom
Cross Country
High Jump
Rock Climbing
Boxing. Round 2
Mountain Biking
Triathlon
Diving. Round 1
Diving. Round 2
Clay Pigeon Shooting
We'll be riding between events so if everyone could follow in convoy, that'll be great and a reminder; apart from the Boxing and Shooting event; there will be no killing of players or destroying bikes.
Some of the events have been designed in 'Creator' and some are in the lobby. The creator events mean that any loss of the Sanchez won't lead to Mors Mutual stinging you for insurance and you won't have to find the nearest road for the mechanic to deliver a replacement bike.
Please ensure you are stocked up on snacks and you have a parachute equipped. There will however be an opportunity to buy one between events if you forget.
All of the events have been tested on a standard Sanchez but custom Sanchez's are allowed and encouraged, so you have the best chance of winning!
Some of the events have podiums at the finish for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. I'll mention it before each event, but once people cross the finish line could I ask that they don't actually cross the GTA finish line, so photo's can be taken on the podium doing your best air guitar or dance move!
There are still places left, so if you haven't signed up yet...what are you waiting for!
This is going to be a good one!
All you need is; a Sanchez (might come in handy), a headset and leave me your GT.
There's nothing quite like pushing the Sanchez to the ragged edge, taking it to the max and likewise, pushing your ability as a Sanchez rider to the max.
I'm guessing the majority of your Sanchez off-roading experience had been around the fields, hills, mountains and coastline of Los Santos, Blaine County and surrounding areas, but there's a Sanchez playground awaiting you
The city!
Sanchez in the city will be in two parts; both of which will include team challenges and at least 4 Sanchez specific races, designed for the meets.
The format will consist of two teams with a maximum of 7 players per team.
We'll meet up at the start location and travel as a group to the first race. The journey between races and challenges will take in parts of the city which you (hopefully) haven't visited on a bike.
These will contain technical sections where going slow is the absolute key but fear not, there will be some fast sections.
Once the races and challenges begin it's time to get your race face on and complete to be in the number one team.
It doesn't matter what your skill level is, as ALL places in the races count towards your team total.
Once we finish the final race, there'll be a mad dash to the start area for Sanchez in the city Part 2; to be held at a later date. Top tip: make sure you have a parachute!
So then;
The list is now OPEN! (Date & time details in post above)
All I need is your Gamer Tag and all you need is a Sanchez and a headset/microphone.
I'm also looking for two team captains.
Once the list is full; I'll use a state of the art randomizer device (closing my eyes and pointing to names on a sheet!) and divide the names to their respective teams.
The teams then decide on a team name, team colour and if they wish, a dress code.
Those taking part in the inagural Sanchez in the city will have first refusal for the second meet.
Please keep an eye on the first page of this thread for updates and I look forward to having some Sanchez fun with you all, over the coming months.
Umm I think you have a mistake there. Should it be friday the 27th? Also if you are still on at 1900EST I can join in. Sadly 1800 I will probably be getting the wife from work lol
I'm not really sure how long the meet will last; I'm guesstimating 21/2 - 3hrs. If there's a space then you're in; I'll pop you on the reserve list in the mean time.

Depending on feedback received following the first 2 meets; my plan is to run more team meets throughout 2015 when the eventual winners being crowned in December.
When people sign up for future meets I will endeavour to put them on the same team which they started out on (subject to numbers taking part)
But there is absolutely no commitment whatsoever to take part in all or any of the team meets.
In addition Team Captains can change throughout the meets unless players wish to remain as Captains.
I will also run relaxed, non competitive meets where we just ride and chill.
But, the whole concept will only work if people want it, so; pass the word.
