Barstow OHV Safety & Education http://134.186.25.134/designer/viewPDF.asp...15&fyr=2008 Dumont Protective Barrier Restoration This one is for a fence around Dumont. Over cleanup weekend, I spoke directly with Brad Mastin and the "Dumont Protective Barrier Restoration" sounds good at first. But be careful. That grant is to pay for a FENCE ALL AROUND DUMONT. We do NOT want this. It would have to be approved first, but we'd rather them not have the funding for the go ahead for that. Read the whole thing here. http://134.186.25.134/designer/viewPDF.asp...16&fyr=2008 In my opinion, if a fence were constructed all around Dumont it would be that much easier for anti-access groups to close the place off. Dumont Dunes OHV Ground Operations As for the other one, Dumont Dunes OHV Ground Operations, that sounds like something I'd vouch for. It is to pay for maintenance items at Dumont such as "Agency Maintenance Workers and Park Rangers work to clean restrooms and maintain facilities such as roads, signs, kiosks, fences and vehicle barriers." It's also for road maintenance and much more. Read the PDF file. http://134.186.25.134/designer/viewPDF.asp...03&fyr=2008 So please send over any comments you have to those 2 e-mails addresses on this grants. Tell them what you think and possibly make a difference at Dumont!

too funny That looks retarded with those bottles taped to your hands. Wonder what people passing by thought. hahaaaa good times :drunks:

Don't like the helmet flag idea? Well then I guess you won't like the a$$ flags. You just shove one down your azz crack. :ah:

With that short little flag mast...I doubt that much at all. Put it in your chest protector. Awesome way to inpale yourself when you crash. I'll have to try that next time I go out. I've seen tons of guys do that. There's no way I would though. My homemade seat mount has lasted YEARS and hasn't ever let me down.

Congrats Ian! I hear they are the bomb. Have fun with it and I'm looking forward to checking out some dune action footage.

I read about this on dune guide's dune news page. Pretty cool idea, especially for 2 wheeler guys. http://www.helmetflag.com/

ok those are enough I think. vote now :B

I don't even know wtf is going on. I see nothing wrong with threads like these other than they are just annoying, but posting annoying stuff is not against the rules of this board. I don't dig politics so I just choose not to read them.

looks like it's wheeling just sitting therel How hard was that? :6pak: j/k Good job. I bet it was a rush. First time wheelies are a great feeling.

weather was perfect. I'm sure that water was cold though. lol Hey skyz, how classy would you expect a chick to dress that is going in a dunk tank game?

good times last night. I managed to get some pics.

Of course Nick has helped tremendously. I think Anna just meant with the whole idea or concept for the site in general. Thanks guys, but I really didn't start this thread looking for any congrats for my I was just suprised the other night when I saw my post count hit 16K.

Dude, that looks sick Cole! Good job.

Thanks Jodi. hmmm...end of season party. We SHOULD do somethin huh? I'll toss around some ideas and maybe get a post up soon to see how many peeps are in.

WOO HOO...a holiday to drink. :drunks: I'm gonna throw on some green and head down to Tom Foolery tonight for some Irish grub and about ten pints of ale. What are everyone's plans? Any? Thought I'd share some history of the holiday... video... http://link.history.com/services/link/bcpi...bctid1455377204 Who Was St. Patrick? St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, is one of Christianity's most widely known figures. But for all his celebrity, his life remains somewhat of a mystery. Many of the stories traditionally associated with St. Patrick, including the famous account of his banishing all the snakes from Ireland, are false, the products of hundreds of years of exaggerated storytelling. The History of the Holiday St. Patrick's Day is celebrated on March 17, his religious feast day and the anniversary of his death in the fifth century. The Irish have observed this day as a religious holiday for over a thousand years. On St. Patrick's Day, which falls during the Christian season of Lent, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon. Lenten prohibitions against the consumption of meat were waived and people would dance, drink, and feast—on the traditional meal of Irish bacon and cabbage. http://www.history.com/content/stpatricksday

not even close

You gotta remember, it's 16K posts over the last ~3.5/ 4 years. I just did the math. That's really only about 12-18 posts per week day. It's my way of winding down after work when I get home during the week. I still seem to have tons of time to do other chit too. So no- it doesn't consume me in any way. Maybe I'm just faster with the reply button than most. lol

Hell yeah, Eric. Great job as usual. I even embeded it on the homepage again.

YIAH

WHAT? photoshop challenge????

maybe that new hauler wasn't a good idea

thanks Pete, but trust me...there is plenty of chit I haven't even read or posted a reply on.... believe it or not. lol
