Best of Overland & Expedition 2015

Illustration for article titled Best of Overland  Expedition 2015

For those that don’t know Overland & Expedition, the vehicle based adventure travel Kinja, was started in 2014 by MrTheEngineer who at the time was building up for a major overland trip before Ferrari’s got thrown in the mix. Since then we’ve grown from a tiny community of a few to a less tiny community of some of the coolest people on the internet. 2015 was, in effect, our “Season 1" and damn if we didn’t have an excellent first showing! A few highlights.

In 2015 O&E had nearly 200,000 global views, over 109,000 unique views. (not counting links off to personal kinja’s and other kinja domains) and while views aren’t really the goal of this space its pretty neat to have a reach. Here I have compiled some of the best trips, stories, builds, reviews and so forth for 2015. Thanks to all of you for being awesome and I can’t wait to see what happens in 2016!
