NHRA may be on hold for me. I might need the time and money to get my rail back together. More than likely I won't be going guys. Sorry, no house on wheels for everybody that planned on kicking back w/ the group. :angry:

What the heck are you guys talking about? You passed who when doing what? :angry:

Dude, don't get me wrong...I understand and respect these people that are doing it for a cause and all. What bothers me the most is that that they caused such a dangerous situation on the road. Some oncoming traffic didn't even slow down for people trying to get around. The fact that these people were paople that save lives puzzles me. You think of all people they would look out for such dangerous situations. Some of the vehicles left some room or moved over for us, but some just flat out refused us space trying to get by SAFELY. They could have at least driven half on the shoulder, half in the road and it could have been much safer. We could clearly see them from a distance with the signs and flashing lights- they didn't need the whole road to warn us of the runners.

The ride to the Tecopa turnoff (which would probably take about 15minutes) took us a good 45 minutes! Every few hundred yards or 1/4 mile or so we had to slow down to about 5-10 miles an hour for what seemed like forever to get around these fools. :angry:

Leaving Dumont on Saturday wingnut, ISBB, & I had to deal with these damn fools hogging the road. Seems as though there was some fundraiser/ marathon thing that some poeple were doing right in the middle of the damn highway! Each runner had a vehicle to follow them from right in the middle of the lane. They couldn't even get over into the shoulder so people like us w/ big ol trailers and motorhomes could pass when there was oncoming traffic. It was pretty dangerous. There were a couple spots along the highway where groups were gathering chearing these people on. Some of these fools were right in the damn road too! I let em all check out my new Banks exhaust in there face! Black diesel smoke galore!!! We had to put up w/ these people all the way from the gravel road out of the Dumont exit until the Tecopa turnoff! It was the longest damn ride home ever! :smiley: A semi almost hit my damn toyhualer because one of these fools didn't get over too! uggh here's wingnut trying to get around...

Man that really sucks, Joe. Good to hear that she is somewhat ok. Hopefully she is completely healed up and feeling better real soon.

YEP!! Easter weekend! (April 15th and 16th weekend) Hope we can kick it together again, gerald. Good times! :smiley:

That's friggin funny! Funny, but still a damn good point. Pack all your gray or black water out. Some gray water is nasty too. :smiley:

She took me out to the House of Blues to see Carlos Mencia!!! It was a blast- funnny as hell! My girl rocks. We had alot of fun. I was tired as hell when I got home and was worried I'd be too exhausted to have a good time, but then when she handed me the tickets I was wide awake with excitement. A few Gin & tonics and couple beers later I was wide awake laughing my a$$ off. Good show! I was able to snap a pic (w/ the crappy quality camera phone )before the show of Carlos signing some stuff for us.

why not? :smiley:

Maybe next time you'll roll the windows up before you go to bed and not leave your damn truck wide open all night. Oh and it doesn't cost $35 to wash some beer off the side of a truck. :smiley: Get off your a$$ and wash it yo self Good times

It was a short trip for me, but still a blast like always. Thankfully nobody got hurt (although we saw the helicopter like 2 or 3 times :huh: ). Friday night I think I did more night riding than I ever have. To the north Pole, then south pole and everything in between, then back to camp and then...hey back to the south pole, then back to camp and strapped the fullsize cooler to the Raptor! Screw the 6 pack rack- I had a 30 pack rack! Then off to the North Pole to meet ISBB in the 1/4 ton p/u. Somehow we ended up at the south pole instead...??? So when jammed over to the north pole and met ISBB there. I was amazed the cooler stayed on the quad, but then as we left the north pole the cooler went sailing! Beers everywhere. We picked them all up and threw them in ISBB's 1/4 ton beer-can-ambulance. That was enough night riding for the night at that point. Saturday was a fun kick back day with a few rides in. We were all a bit sore from Friday night, but we had so much fun we could have just gone home after that fun filled evening. Got to meet some new faces...Randog and cmyfirepole and his son John. :smiley: Again it was nice to meet you guys. We had fun kicking it w/ you. SandYFZ's motor pretty much grenaded 15 minutes after he got there Sat AM. We beleive he melted a hole in a piston maybe since there was oil EVERYWHERE coming from the breather. Hopefully you get it back together soon, Aaron. Randog's sweet ride... Sunday afternoon... Weather was great too!

Cool, Cat!!! Great Pics.

Lazy bastard! j/k :angry: It was good times like always. Maybe next week!

It isn't that hard to find. You just need to know when to turn right off the road. Once you go through the pay station, you'll head up the road (uphill) curving right. Once you get to the top of the plateau drive a couple hundred yards and then hang a right off the gravel raod. You should see the finger dune to the left. This is the first finger. Just keep heading down until you see us. If you need more specific directions you can call me. Just pm me for the number. Look on the map for a visual. You will be coming up from the road from the left of the pic. The top of the plateau starts right about where the road begins on the pic (left lower). I don't know how to get much more detailed than that. :angry: BTW, pay no attention to the baby sh*t brown area of the map. That was an old marking.

Hey Don I got a couple things for ya! :angry: j/k... wish you could make it out There will be wingnut.... Sin City blondie's... (except towed by a grey newer body Suburban) Joe Duner has a white lifted GMC 2500 HD crew cab pulling the last toyhauler in this pic...(30ft WW) Mine.... ISBB's Sonoma...
-
Oh yeah...by the way... Nick wasn't able to grab my banner so it won't be up until later tonight. :angry: Sorry. I'll post some pics of our rides for the rest you guys.
-
Yeah they do, Gerald. :angry: I just got off the phone w/ Nick. They all know you're comin.
-
So the only thing I don't like about my new toyhauler is the water pressure. It's just seems to kinda piss out w/o a lot of pressure. :angry: I am probably gonna upgrade the pump to a higher gpm pump I guess. You'd think they would put the higher pump in since they didn't chince on the rest of the toyhauler. How is the water pressure in your toyhaulers or motorhomes?
-
Stacey, it shouldn't be hard to find. Just when you get to the first finger dune hang a right and go about half way down. They are on the left side. :angry: As far as the firewood, I'd say just bring a little bundle- not that much though.

ISBB text messaged me late last night to tell me they are way down the FIRST finger around bathroom 3 kinda. When you are coming up the main gravel road, turn BEFORE the first finger, then follow it down a ways and just look for the DDR banner. PM me if anyone needs additional directions to where the DDR camp will be.
