At VAOffroad.org, we believe off-roading isn’t just about the vehicle—it’s about the community. That’s why we’re proud to shine a spotlight on two incredible local groups who share our love for Virginia’s trails: Star City Jeepers and Big Lick Broncos. While these groups may fly different flags—Jeep and Bronco, respectively—the heart of their mission is the same: to explore, protect, and enjoy off-road adventures right here in the Commonwealth.
Star City Jeepers: Unity in Jeep Culture
Based in the Roanoke region, Star City Jeepers is a close-knit group of Jeep enthusiasts who live for weekend rides, community events, and challenging their rigs on everything from casual dirt roads to technical rock crawls. Their dedication to trail safety, stewardship, and inclusion makes them a perfect example of what off-roading should be about.
Star City Jeepers isn’t just about owning a Jeep—it’s about belonging to a tribe that values camaraderie, learning, and pushing limits responsibly. Whether it’s a stock Wrangler or a fully-built off-road beast, everyone is welcome.
Big Lick Broncos: Built Wild, Roaming Free
Big Lick Broncos is Roanoke’s own Bronco-centric group, gathering owners of both classic and new-gen Broncos under one banner. These rigs are known for their rugged durability and trail-readiness, and the folks behind Big Lick Broncos are just as tough and passionate.
What makes Big Lick Broncos special is their commitment to helping each other grow as off-roaders—newcomers and veterans alike. Their community thrives on sharing knowledge, exploring together, and making sure the Bronco legacy is alive and well in Virginia.
One Trail, One Passion
At a glance, Star City Jeepers and Big Lick Broncos may seem like rivals. But on the trail, the difference in badge fades away. VAOffroad.org exists to bring these groups—and others like them—together. Because no matter what you drive, the real bond is our shared love for mud, rocks, ridgelines, and Virginia’s diverse backcountry terrain.
We’ve seen these groups work side-by-side during trail cleanups, ride-alongs, and community events. They help keep our off-road spaces open and respected. Together, they embody the spirit of VAOffroad.org—education, etiquette, and unity in adventure.
So whether you roll in on 37-inch tires or factory fresh, whether you rock a Jeep wave or a Bronco badge, there’s a place for you here.
Let’s keep riding together. See you on the trails.
