I have always picked up my own trash.. and for about 5 years i have been picking up what other people leave...so i guess im part of the volenteer group....
Me and my friends(Lori and Leanne) drove the rhino's over there monday morning and picked up 3 big bags of trash..bottles, cans,cups ... its a sad thing
too bad they couldnt catch those trash leaving a$$holes and take their ID's and BAN them from coming to the dunes... LONG TIME DUNER 27 years.... always left my camp cleaner than when i showed up.
another thing you could do is put your cell number on the collar.... most everyone has a cell phone.. in the last 2 years.. i have saved 2 dogs lost out down the river about 5 miles.... calling them while i rode my quad.... a puppy great dane and a aussie.. both black... we found the owners who where out looking for their dogs...thank god... just this last holloween i seen a lady driving her rhino... not knowing her littledog was running behind her... waaay behind her. i chased her down and stopped her telling her her dog was following her..... she went and picked up the little guy.... and last but not least... waking up to find a dog sitting in the front seat of our rhino... we found the owners.. 3 very happy stories.... i keep mine on a 60' rope and my eye on her at all times.. when i go for a ride.. she takes a nap in her kennel... safe and sound.. piece of mind...
i was riding my banshee on a real windy day and was flying up a dune.. my boyfriend was following me on his ktm.... i was in 3rd gear.. looked like the dune went another 20 feet or so..... i flew off the top and landed some 60 feet or so down the back side .... the ground went away so fast.. but i was in the air LIKE forever... i had time to think "oh SH#T".. my front end was going under so i had time to think.... lean back... i actually landed on all four tires.. grabbed every brake i had... and some.... stopped at the bottom of the bowl... got off the bike... cursed a few times at the bike... took my helmet off.... in the mean time... my boyfriend seen me flying off the dune.. dumped his bike about 4 feet from the top thinking the whole time.. she going to crash .. he crawled up to the top and seem me standing there...a sanrail seen the whole thing and came over to see if i was alright.. i was... wish i did it on purpose..cause it was cool... i rode back to camp and took it easy the rest of the trip..
i have been riding all my life and nothing has ever shaken me up so bad... lets just say i dont lead anymore....
sorry about your dog .. hope you find her... we found a dog sitting in our rhino sunday morning... not yours sorry... we drove around with the dog and found its owners..... happy days... blue was his name....
