  1. Had a descent weekend with bigtruckdrmr.

    We got there about 8:30 saturday morning and pulled into Andy's (dune rat) camp, I think they were just waking up. :laughing: Thank you again for taking us in, next time were bringing some food to add to the buffet, I felt like such a moocher.

    Tami got real comfortable on the LTR and decided to go for a 50' jump, not really. We were on the flats to the west of the south pole, she punched it over a little finger dune, the front end came up and threw her off on the downside of the finger.

    I didn't see it, I just looked back after about a 100' and she was already on the ground.

    Luckily there was a guy in a Rhino sittin on top of the finger that came down to check on her, thank you very much if you're reading this.

    She got the wind knocked out of her pretty good and a bruise on the butt with a sore back, but she was still able to take a ride in Andy's rail and had an absolute blast.

    I love my LTR. Comp was pretty dead all weekend but got to race a few guys, and girl on an LTR, and beat 'em all, without a pipe may I add. I was pretty happy.

    Got some pictures on Tami's camera so I will add them when I get my hands on it.

    P.S. Pete, you're site is the best man. I was able to find some awsome people to camp and ride with this weekend instead of going alone and having to risk theft or a being alone with a bad injury. It definitely serves it's purpose. Thank you. :shocked2:

    Hey, it was great havin you guys Sean. We will definitely have to do that again, hope Tami is feeling better. maybe we get to Havasu this summer when u guys are there. :idiot:

  2. :dunno: That's because the Tree Huggers have organized enough to raise a lot of cash to give big $$$$ to these A$$wipes. :grin: The same group that shut down Kelso, belongs to the same parent group that almost got away with shutting down Lake Mead a few years back to 2 strokes. Theyre not going to be happy until the only thing the rolls across the sand is a Poop Beatle :dope:

    it looks like they were succesful: :barf:

    Beginning December 31, 2012, boats that do not meet the Environmental Protection Agency Rule for gasoline spark-ignition marine engines will be prohibited on Lakes Mead and Mohave. After that date, The National Park Service will require the exclusive use of four-stroke engines, direct-injection two-stroke engines, or equivalent technology. The public has almost a decade to convert to the new technology.

    I found that here: http://www.nps.gov/archive/lame/station/news/030409.html

  3. Wife and I are going to get into looking for gold out in the desert and at old mining sites, anyone into that and does anyone know anything about metal detectors? Want to get one but not the cheap wally world stuff.

    I know you cant use them at Lake Mead :drunk: Rangers chased me and my kids...something about it being a national park/historic site. He asked if we found anything and i told him just a few beer cans with the "historic" pop tops on them :D , i asked if he wanted them an he said no. :beercheers:
