I am out for the 31st. I have a gig scheduled for that day already. i have been getting a lot of last minute gigs. I am game to try for one on the Saturday the 3rd. I am pretty sure I will be day tripping Thursday March 8th if anyone is interested. The 16-17-18th I am out for the stupid wedding and since i can't go i might try and hang out with Mark when he goes as well. @Stacey, I have a 2 space trailer for my bikes, but if I go solo i would be able to take one of mine off for yours. We can PM about it if we get to where it's needed. I can/could haul 3 bikes with one in the bed but i have to pull the Gas tank thing off or the tailgate will hit.

EVERYONE WATCH OUT>>>>> Terry is gonna drive the car again... lol Sorry dude i just had to, honestly that was the funnest run of the weekend and I won't forget it. what about side x side? they can mix well, can't they? I might have a spare bike, the Outlaw is good for old people that indepent suspension is nice and cushy. I say we try a poll or something to try and figure out what might work best to get it moving forward....and hopefully i don't get a last minute gig, or stupid wedding to go to.

When is your next trip...?
Adam @ GTP Off Road replied to Adam @ GTP Off Road's topic in General Chat
I was reminded today that my Fiance's friend is getting married March 17th so I am out for that weekend. SUCKS!! i don't even know her, but Michelle is in the wedding, and it is her high school friend. So I am stuck going and missing the whole weekend. this always seems to happen. Still going to plan on the 8th, and maybe going back and hanging with Mark later -
When is your next trip...?
Adam @ GTP Off Road replied to Adam @ GTP Off Road's topic in General Chat
maybe I can do the day trip with my buddy on the 8th, then do clean-up weekend. I know Mark was talking about NASCAR weekend so he should chime in... maybe i just leave the 8th, and come back the 19th... lol Can you tell i am addicted? i am working on ways to be a little more self supporting, but a motorhome or toyhauler are out of the question right now. I have some ideas though. -
When is your next trip? I heard a few were planning on NASCAR weekend. I have a day trip buddy wanting to go March 8th, and I would love to stay out there that whole weekend. I'll make him walk home I should be getting a day trip in the last week in March, just not the 28th. So far i am open the 16th - 18th weekend as well. I want to get at least 2 or 3 more good trips in before the season's over.

Just took it off

Wow this is crazy. RIP duner. i avoid Comp like the plague if its busy. on off weekends or day trip weekdays i can usually run Comp with my group only.
-
It's weird the roof on Terry's car looks caved in?? lol Those are nice pics.
-
Looks like i am postponing my day trip even for this week. looks like it might rain a little and don't want to risk a drive to be wasted.I know I am a whimp but i want the most fun for my money. Looks like NASCAR weekend will be the next time i can really go since I got some gigs coming up.

I was going to say take it out of the garage, but too late... Just make sure you check that water level on the batteries. sounds like a great peice to have, especially out in the desert. plenty of sun there.
-
THAT IS AWESOME! You came by our camp looking for him twice that night, and I was so glad my dog was at home. It is fantastic he was found safe, and not stolen. :clap:
-
I am looking at a day trip on Thursday with my buddy. Would consider staying but i think he will have to get back for work. We will see how it goes. not really interested in any of the drag racing stuff, i just wanna ride. when does the official holiday weekend start for the season passes. I have a Non-holiday pass? @Mark... that was funny. @ Terry, how many tries does it take to kill the passenger? just curious since you tried once, but if it takes 3 or 4 times + we are still good. LOL.
-
damn, I really want to go, i just don't want to deal with the tore up dunes, and heavy traffic. Plust not over Terry trying to kill us. LOL
-
I have to work Saturday Night, can't go pres weekend, and have to work the 25th... Not sure when I can go again with DDR peeps.

well we rode together for the Eco-Terrerist meeting in Tecopa and that went ok. BTW, name is Adam. Let me see as we get closer. -
Next Sub - Group meeting
Adam @ GTP Off Road replied to ynot's topic in Dumont Regulations, Safety & BLM
Wow, i don't know if i can get up that early. I live on DJ time and that is EARLY. plus i have to drive all the way down there, not to mention we don't have very good luck riding together. we are 50/50 for crashing. -
Next Sub - Group meeting
Adam @ GTP Off Road replied to ynot's topic in Dumont Regulations, Safety & BLM
What time are you leaving for this? There is a DJ trade show in town next week but I spent all my money already anyway so i might as well skip it. I am interested to see how these meetings go and all. -
hey Jim... How do you feel after your wreck? More importantly how's the bike? lol Thanks for coming by and helping us out when Terry had his crazy driving moment. I can't remember your Girl Friends (???) name, but I give a thank you to her to for grabbing stuff out the sand, especially the GoPro and helping out.
-
neither of us were really sore. Terry might have got thrown around more as i was buried in the sand for most of it. It really wasn't that violant in my seat.
-
Geez bert, how do you really feel. Friendly thread, lol I have the motorsports pack, and bought the seatpost mount so I could mount on the Heal Guards. I bought Tusk Heal guards specifically for the tube design. I had an issue where the camera was freezing up when i mounted it on the Heal Guard and under the seat facing back. Facing back was mounted with a sticky mount on the air box as it was the most secure spot. I ended up hitting the camera with part of the suspension linkage but it didn't really hurt it. I don't use the suction cup as i lost one camera that way. There are ways to secure it if you do. Usually the best sound comes from the camera on my helmet and using the skeleton case. I think the sound of the bike was weird with it on the heal guard because i had the full case on since i wasn't sure how much sand would get on it. I think i want to do a sand cover for the GoPro so I can still use the Skeleton case. It's too bad the camera was freezing up because i would have gotten a lot more video from the heal guard and rear facing with jumps and wheelies. I have a service request in with GoPro to see if they have any ideas. I still want 6 GoPros. I have 2 bikes, so I want one forward, one rearward and one on each rider all going. That would make for some cool video edits. Still wish i had put my camera on Terry's car before he decided to wreck, but he didn't tell me first.

Trip Video

Glad to hear he was ok. It looked pretty bad. I wasn't sure if the roll cage hit him or not. It looked pretty bad when we got there, and I had my phone out ready to get help. Luckly the driver was talking and seemed "ok." Your Husband did a FANTASTIC job during the whole thing. I couldn't believe seeing the other RZR sitting there as well. Good thing he had a custom cage on. I know the other RZR-XP from your group that stopped had a GoPro on the Hood. I would like to see the video to see what happened. I got it on video and posted it here, but you can't really see much as i was too far away. To post some pics you can go to advanced options and then you use the Attach Files.

Insurance people can be a little "off" for sure. I would hope they weren't looking at it if they were calling it a boat. Lots of hoops to jump through to get it all fixed. The car was working fine though, you could always hold off the repairs for a little bit and enjoy the car till closer to the end of the season. The RZR S does good and even though it isn't as fast, i'd follow it any day on a run. Granted that wasn't the ride i had planned during the weekend, but i don't sweat it. We are both ok, and to say the least that was the highlight of my weekend and a story i will tell for years. I don't consider my life was at risk, especially after seeing the RZR XP accident Sunday. sh*t happens and its not like you were being careless Terry. I am glad i had the little arm restraint on.
