Hahaa I don't think so. Im pretty sure we abused them all.

So Saturday Chad and I noticed something when sitting on comp hill. hat the huge, dangerous canyon that sandrails have been hitting is shifting to the right and slowly going away. Last season I thought it was getting worse, but as of Saturday it's basically gone. The wind has shifted it upwards and made it almost like a small corridor to go over comp. Good thing too because a lot of people were coming dangerously close to going into it like Grimace did. This is all that is left of it.

Not sure why everyone wanted to keep things hush hush. ??? Like I posted earlier, it's not illegal to go out there and race.

Right on Terry. Glad you got it handled especially in time for your trip!

Devil bugs? Is that what they're really called? Either way, they suck! I hear ya.

Thanks for taking those awesome shots of me on my Raptor. You got some good ones!

Here's what you all missed. Driving out watching the sun rise. Pulling in to Dumont ahhh First ride of the morning All ours! Nice ripple action A quick stop at the north pole RIP Chuck Lots of shoes up there. ??? Playing around... That stuff was SOFT! braaap I need this right? oops One big sand box Here comes Chad. This bowl is getting bigger and bigger! Looking south The south pole Lots of green! The military mailbox. Chadwick playing aroun Sitting on comp hill. Empty camp area 4 miles of awesome Top of the world! Taking in the view. Back at camp. Neal showed up! He took his Xterra out to play a little. A couple hill shooters started to show up for the night drags.

Hell yeah what a great sand fix. Those dunes were super technical to ride, but it sure was fun! As Chad said, not nearly as fast as our usual rides. I just love being out there though early in the morning in the middle of summer. The view of those smooth, untouched dunes with the sun coming up is just priceless. The temperatures were very bearable and the wind wasn't too bad. That breeze kept things cool. It was about 72 when we pulled in about 6AM and it was still only 95 when we left at 1PM. There were a few gusts that got annoying, but they let up and it wasn't too bad. There was only one other truck out there when we got there and then a few started pulling in late morning. Yeah that damn pipe busted right off after the first jump. Good thing I had a ratchet strap. haha poor Raptor. That thing is beat down but she still goes and goes! Can't believe I've been riding that thing nonstop and hard as hell since 03! Oh yeah...Chad got stung by a bee right in the tittie! Damn, those things were all over out there. Wassup with that? Sand and some sage and that's about it. What are they doing out there? We killed about 3 of them at the truck. Chad, thanks for coming out bro. There aren't many people who will wake up before 4AM on a Saturday and drive a couple hours just to go tear it up for half a day's worth of good riding in the sand. It's too bad ISBB and a few others couldn't make it but we'll do another one soon! I took a ton of pics with both cameras. I'll post those up next.
