May 8 Dune Trip Report

Recommended Posts

So just got back from hitting up Dumont for a day trip. Got there around 9 am and it was kind of windy. Wasn't as hot as I thought it was going to be but the wind was blowing. I took my brother ( 8 years old ) sister ( 15 ) and dad it was the first time for them at Dumont and Sand in general. While riding I would feel the sand hit me haha. Was like wtf lol. Anyways here are some few pics and videos will come later. My brothers quad was running awsome but damn getting stuck everywhere. Oh well can't complain what I payed for that new. Im going to buy him a bigger good brand quad.

Im also considering in purchacing a bigger truck and toy hauler.

Seen 2 members that are from here I think. Well there was 2 Honda Oddysies.

I been having traction issues with the 250 ( red ). Had Skat Trak Edge on and they would spin up comp hill. They wouldn't hook. So I borrowed my friends Skat Trak 10 Paddle Haulers and they worked way better. Still would spin but I made it up. I don't know what the right paddle for that quad is.

Can't complain. A day at the dune beats any day at home. How as the weather.

From like 9-11:30 windy. Wasn't really hot. Then the wind stopped and it got pretty hot. I think it was 95 ish. Didn't check. Over all it was nice, tho can't complain. Dumont was empty! There was only 7 groups.

Nice report.

I would think a 10 paddle would be too much for a 250 4 stroke.

Some 7 or 8 paddle gliders would prob work best.

less grab will give more spin which will get you higher RPMs. In turn should make u a little faster.

You were still slippin with the 10 cup hauler huh. Seems like it would have been diggin too much. Bigtruckdrmr's 250ex has whats equivelent to a 10 cup and it kills it.

Yea man I don't know what was up. I'll post the video up soon. Its uploading right now.

video of my baby jumps haha.

going up comp hill on the 250

Thanks for the Share, we were considering going out this weekend too, but may be too hot. Nice evening temps tho. I noticed you mentioned you were looking for a bigger truck, I just to happen to put my F250 up for sale as I am going doubles and picked up a C4500 to pull my 40 ft and trailer. So I have this 2006 F250, 6 pack, short bed, Lariat package all leather, non smoking interior, meaning my wife and I do not smoke. 4x4, roll out taunnua cover locking, 5th wheel plate, on board air, great when you or if you have to air down, oversized fuel tank, 46 gal, helper air bag system, grill guard, running boards, regular tow package as well, bfg tires all around that keep me out any trouble. Asking $23,500 books stock 26K PM me if you are interested. I am in the High Desert.

Just received the pics a co-workers wife took on her awsome camera. There super high quality but I think my photobucket might drop quality. This was from a few weeks ago.
