Time for a history lesson: Did you know the town of La Crosse was named after the French game lacrosse? As the story is told, in 1805 when Lt. Zebulon Pike was exploring the formerly French territory acquired by the US in the Louisiana Purchase, he came across a beautiful prairie on the edge of the Mississippi river where natives were playing the game of lacrosse. And so he named the area Prairie La Crosse.
We didn't know about this interesting bit of history, and we are excited to learn more along this Land of Lakes Adventure in Wisconsin. Our journey will take us along twisty backroads that follow streams and tributary rivers which feed the mighty Mississippi. A mix of agricultural views that earned this part of the country the moniker of the "bread basket" of the US, along with picturesque quaint little towns, as well as 4000 and 5000 foot elevation changes as we get up into the hill country. We'll explore the Driftless Region of Wisconsin, an ecological anomaly known for its jagged and rugged terrain with many cliffs and rock outcroppings, dramatic bluffs, lush forests, and steep gorges. Enjoy the variety of venues with the contrast of the nearby prairie lands and lake country also incorporated into our journey. And don't forget the cheese. There will definitely be cheese.

Overdrive Adventures is the brainchild of Jason Hight and Roseanne Murphy. You may already know us individually as 14U2NV or 4U2NV and RMurphy in various online S2000 forums. For at least a decade, Roseanne and Jason had been creating group drives in their respective geographic regions about 2000 miles apart and with no awareness that each other existed. But because of their shared love of a particular sportscar – the Honda S2000 – their paths were destined to cross at a club event and they became friends. When changes in Jason’s employment brought him to Los Angeles, the two collaborated on their first major gathering in 2018 – a 4.5 day driving event based in the Santa Monica mountains and showcasing the best of Southern California car culture – and it was clear there would be many more events in their future together.
Jason’s expertise in all things graphics related, as well as his fondness for staring at maps and finding all of the twistiest paved roads, make him well suited for creating the look and feel of every Overdrive Adventure trip, program, map, and logo. Roseanne’s attention to detail and acute sensitivity to all things human (need for food, potty breaks, fun, and safety) make her well-suited for keeping the drives on course, on time, comfortable, and safe. Both of them love their cars, love to drive, and love to share that passion with others.
The year 2020 was one of contemplation and soul searching on many levels. And it was in that time that Roseanne and Jason decided to begin the journey which would become Overdrive Adventures. Jason’s past experience with car clubs gave him a desire to make drives which would cover the entire country, not just one specific region. Discarding the imaginary limitations and old structures, both Jason and Roseanne wanted to go places they had never been and discover the beauty of new locations. Drives which they both have always wanted to do have become the foundation of their destinations for Overdrive Adventures. Calling on advice from friends from all over the country, they have created their dream list of destinations to enjoy in top-down fashion. And now they are inviting everyone with the same love of journeys and driving to come join them.
So come join us! Everyone deserves to enjoy some Overdrive Adventures.
