  1. No excuse. Whats more important? Getting your buggy ready or the Dune Pic of the Month?
  2. CA Non-resident OHV passes are good until Dec 31 of the year on the pass. They are only 1 year passes. So if you have a 2016 pass, you are good until the end of the year.
  3. So we have one blurry pic of Clark's trailer with party lights on it for Dune Pic of the Month. Really? That's it? C'mon guys. Need some participation here. I was thinking in addition to the DPOM here on DDR, we should make it the cover photo on our Facebook page as well, but if nobody submits any pics it's going away for good.
  4. A few new things have been added to your profiles with the site update. You can add a cover photo and also add photos of your toys to your profile. Just click edit profile and add photos. this will add a "My Sand Toys" tab to your profile.
  5. If you go the Baker route, Mountain Pass is along gradual hill. There aren't many other hills, if any, after that. If you go the Tecopa way, it's a short but very brutal hill. There are a couple small hills to climb throughout the Old Spanish Trail Hwy & HWY 127.
  6. Nice Funco. Looks like a Subie.
  7. Nobody has reported any issues as of yet.
  8. Another update: In case you haven't noticed, we have a fancy new Dune Food section! The link is right under General Chat. I moved most of the recipes we had posted here on the forum over to the Dune Food page. It's a much nicer and easier to read recipe section. Check it out and add one if you have one. http://www.dumontduneriders.com/dune-food/
  9. haha all good. It was posted in general chat first, but then I thought it was so good it deserved to be on the homepage.
  10. Some duners cashed in on the untouched sand one week before they get hammered over Halloween. With weather varying from sunny to overcast and a few drips of rain, it turned out to be a great mix of weather for a day or two in the sand. Starting off the weekend, agphd on Instagram sent us these great shots of the untouched sand and wicked razorbacks followed by one of those epic Dumont sunsets! The Miles family (submitted via our FB) had the dunes all to themselves and even got a few of those passing raindrops as the cool looking clouds paid a visit.

  11. Paul let's hook up. Or you're welcome to join our camp.
  12. Should we stop doing the Dune Pic of the Month? Not much participation lately.
  13. Ahh that sucks! Couldn't that wait until after Halloween though? Still seems drive able for now once you get the tire fixed.
  14. Thanks! Glad to hear. It's always stressful making changes, but I am pretty happy about the site updates this time. I think everything works and flows much better.
  15. Oops. I forgot to adjust permissions on the new classifieds section. Try it now.
  16. Hop on board with pilot and You Tuber, Henry TrikeLife, as he takes us over some of the beautiful gems of Death Valley in his REVO "Yellow Jacket" trike. He shows us a unique perspective of Dumont Dunes and the surrounding areas such as the China Ranch Date Farm, Tecopa Hot Springs and more. It's interesting to see what these places look like from up above. Henry did a great job with all those camera angles and editing. Looked like it was a gorgeous day to be up there. For an exciting demo flight in his trike, give him a call at (509) 280-0163 or visit his website. http://www.introflights.com Here's some interesting facts about Henry's aircraft Trike: REVO "Yellow Jacket" (Evolution Aircraft Inc.)

  17. Ahhh I see. I remember it being good the last time I went through there, but it's been a while.
  18. I made some improvements to our Classifieds section this morning. expanded the classifieds into it's own category for easier navigating added a "Mark as Sold" button. Click this when your ad is sold and it will go away. I added some parts sections as sub-forums (ie: Sandrail parts, Side x Side parts, Auto parts) A miscellaneous section was also added for things that don't fit into the other sections
  19. Hey Paul. You're going to Glamis for Halloween? Or did you mean Dumont? Whereabouts are you coming from? Clarksburg?
  20. haha welcome back Pat! Se you next weekend.
  21. Nice. I like how it has two burners and doesn't have one of those cheapy regulators. These are all good options I think. Thanks guys and keep the feedback coming if you have any.
