grey Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Well I just got my motor in my TRX running again and I really wanna ride this thing. Tried to get Pismo reservations too late. Is anyone going to Dumont on the 4th weekend? Grey..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamcyclopseatme Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Which day are you going? Cant go on Friday as thats reserved for taking the kid to the parade and doing the whole firework thing, however Saturday I may be able to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I have no plans this weekend other than check out Taproot downtown on the 4th. So with that said...if I get really bored I MAY be down for another early azz AM run but with the quad this time. I'll let ya know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 Maybe Sat early morning, leave at like 4 in the morn. Iwas thinking about going to Coral Pink cuz it won't be so hot and I have never been there. But it's like 6,000 FT MSL and my jetting will probably be off, and I couldn't get a campground. The lady at the reservations place told me the campground was full but you can camp in the meadows and ride to the dune area anywhere else you have to trailer it. SO it sounds full to me unless I got there on Thurs AM and kinda late to get everything ready by then. Grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamcyclopseatme Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Looking good for a small turn-out possibly? I only have a quad, so thats what I will be on Coral Pink is a bit too far for a day trip, plus it will be BUSY! I agree, but I say we leave at 3:30am like the last trip as the sun its coming up at 5:30am (and its semi light at 5). **Talked to my buddy today. Hes pretty sure hes down to go if we have a group (2 riders always sucks). Hell also have his son most likely (teenager, so no babysitting lol) so that should make 3 of us going.

iamcyclopseatme Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Im thinking for the LV guys, meet at the shell @ Blue Diamond & Dean Martin @ 3:30am like last week. Be in Dumont about 5am, maybe few minutes after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be in Dumont about 5am, maybe few minutes after. you know if you take the 215 all the way to durango and cut over to blue diamond you avoid all the crap in between, like the slow speed limit through mountains edge and the extra stops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamcyclopseatme Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Yeah, true, but at 3:30am its not really slow We can meet up at the station @ the Blue Diamond cut-off if that would be better, doesnt matter to me but gas is usually a bit more expensive at that one (atleast it used to be, maybe not anymore??). Used to be a good $.20 more lol. I come from the east side, so I go down BD anyways (get off at Windmill and just take it out of town). Just let me know where you want to meetup Ooooh slow speed limit? At 3:30am, I use the old speed limit on BD of 55 mph and 65 mph.

grey Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 Looks like it should be enough for a good ride. I'll talk to the wife and see if she wants to go too. I think my buddy can't make it so we'll see. If I'm south on 15 where is this gas station? exit BD and go left? over the pass? Grey.....

iamcyclopseatme Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Yup, thats it. Gas station will be down about 5 miles??? I think on the left right where the turn-off for Blue Diamond is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I won't be able to make it if it's Sat AM. I have some plans for late Fri night which will prevent me from getting up that early on Saturday. You guys have fun, be safe, and take plenty of pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamcyclopseatme Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Oh thats bullshit. Everyone is going to be doing a little drinking Friday night! Piss poor excuse! Handle it :drunk2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handle it :drunk2: Sorry, been there done that. It ruins the whole morning. No hangover & sober is the only way to fully enjoy the dunes on a summer run. I can't believe I just said that.

We are going anyway, peace Edited July 3, 2008 by grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamcyclopseatme Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Where do you plan on parking the beast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 Where do you plan on parking the beast? I guess somewhere by the whooped out road in between Banshee hill and Competition hill, but not in that close. I'm sure it will be the only one there LOL. Hope to see you out there. Grey...........

Well I have been packing all day, I'm leaving in like 10 minutes, I thought I would check one more time before I go. Happy trails, look for a Red TRX450R and a blue Raptor 700R. Grey..........
