One freak accident and everyone thinks that Funcos break in half now.

come onnnn!

haha, those BLM rangers were there when we pulled up too. We just hung out on our bikes until they were done eating and then snatched up their tables and hung out.

Actually that is the second time. (1st time was about the horrible Rhino/train accident). Yep, I miss ya Bob...except for that that is always hanging out.

I found another little article or write up from the weekend on this page--->click here I thought it was pretty good as well.

Nothing but positive thoughts for little Danny. Please keep us posted on his progress, Steve.

You don't ever have a good weekend do you? :dance: Sorry to hear that. Some people are just jerks and don't pay attention some times. As for the trash I thought it was pretty clean compared to other weekends out there. I even commented on that Sat night to wsky70 when we were at comp.

Terry posted the link for the article in another thread if anyone feels like reading what was published. http://www.dumontduneriders.com/invision/i...st&p=109702

:dance: waste of a thread. We could post lots of GD links like that all day long, but why??

Sand was sh*t??? I thought it was actually pretty nice during the whole weekend. I kinda like some tracks and flattened out razors from time to time. It makes it easier to do a lazy ride and not have to pay as much attention to navigate. :dance: Too bad you couldn't make the weekend, Steve.

Thats great. Did the bike happen to be a yellow suzuki? I had a run in last T Day (06) with a punk that sounds JUST like that kid. He was quick to talk chit and real quick to run back to his daddy too.

Oh chit! That sucks. Effen jerks....WTF!!?? :rant_on:

NO...it's not ok. Why do you assume that every sandrail owner thinks that it is ok to do that or actually does that in the first place? Dunerat never said all quad guys are irresponsible people that jump without a spotter. Quads, rails, 2 wheeleres, Rhinos....it doesn't matter what the type of vehicle or toy....there are gonna be people that make bad calls and drive like fools regardless. You can't teach common sense to some people. Ya either have it or ya don't.

They're not on the list yet. It's not THAT close to Christmas yet.

Paul I hear ya. The whole thing is a mess. On the other hand, I had all the information posted here on DDR (on the passes page) about the only place that you could buy or trade in weekly passes (the OLD passes) was through the BLM. I also had and still have the info posted that the season passes would only be available through the BLM and not the vendors. Sorry you might have missed it. I had a logo on the top of the forum, an annoucement in 3 sections of the forum, links on the homepage, etc. I don't know what else to do to try to keep everyone informed and free of confusion. I would guess the BLM would maybe give you the credit (at least $20 worth) due to the recent confusion. I'd just bring that $40 pass along with any other old $20 weekly passes with you next time and ask when you go to buy a season pass.

Yeah as many people were there, I didn't see many people IN the the dunes at all.

Oh geez! You think too much. We were talking about going to Hog Heaven for about an hour then right when we were about to leave you guys showed up. Sorry we hung out as long as possible w/ you guys but wanted to get over there before it got dark. It was good seeing you two again though and chatting. I think Danny is definitely finally out of his shell. He's a super nice guy. I'm glad you guys stopped by. We'll have to hang out again more next trip.

That information is partly incorrect. The little boy was jumping and crashed into the side of the rail with his dirtbike. He was about 3 feet off the ground when he hit the rail's side with his front tire and his head hit the A-pillar of the car. The car was barely moving when the boy came flying into it. I talked with the owner of the car last night. He was devastated about the accident, but did not at all hit him or land on him. He said after the boy was air lifted out he heard the rumors start flying about how the rail ran him over from a group that gathered. I hope the boy is ok and recovers. He said he was unconscious for about an hour before flight for life picked him up.

Aaron (SandYFZ) busted a chain right when he got there .... Buddy, Mike B, fabbing up some heat wrap ...

This guy pulled in with a LINCOLN ...so we pulled him out. Here are the rest of my pics.... http://www.dumontduneriders.com/gallery/th...s.php?album=287 If anyone wants to add some T-Day pics to the gallery, I added a folder (Thanksgiving 07) that everyone can upload into.

It was great to finally hang out w/ you Jason AT DUMONT. Your buddy Jim was a super cool guy too. some of my observations... -most over-used word of the weekend "OOOFF" -Pauly Paul can ride into a corner so hard he can de-bead a tire -buring turkey carcasses (sp?) is nasty but fun -Ball and Chain is gonna register the domain, duneroids.com, for Charlie -duniemonkie makes snowmen out of ice cubes at Dumont -2 Pizzaz's going full of circle food plus cheese :afro: 's on the grill and Super Troopers going on the TV: priceless :mc_smiley: -fast dune rides with good friends till your hands feel like their gonna fall off: also priceless -richardcheese isn't used to razorbacks -I actually took my truck to comp TWICE and didn't get a reckless driving ticket for driving in the sand this time -I heard the stripper pole and hauler came back out but the rangers put a quick stop to it this time. -15+ people siging karaokee in dunejnky's motorhome was hilarious. I feel bad for his motorhome though -a giant soft sand patch near camp makes for much entertainment but alots of pulling people out. "should we go pull him out? .....oooohhhhkkkkaaaaaay " -you can pull out almost anything when you have a superstrap. I swear by those things -sanddunessaddict's Tracker can suprise the hell out of people, including sanddunessadict

The ranger camp was huge as usual although they were all gone and not even anybody at the gate checking passes when I left at 2-2:30 on Sunday.

:mc_smiley: Great job, Eric! That is almost homepage material! hell yeah

What did everyone one else think? It seemed like there was quite a few duners out there this weekend, but it also seemed like there were way less of the usual holiday weekend idiots. My only complaint was that the kids camped next to us were wheeling all damn day long right next to nearby trailers, but other than that I didn't see too much of the usual a$$hats out there. Oh yeah, and there was alot of metal stakes on the finger dunes, but I'm not getting into that at all again. Anyways, I wonder if the Dumont fee increase had anything to do with it. I heard Glamis was also kinda the same way though. Maybe it's gas prices and the economy that forced many to stay home this trip. Either way, I enjoyed it and had a great time.

Effen Cole! hahaa
