Had an awesome time as usual.. I havent been in the sand since T-Day so this was well overdue. I burned thru damn near 5 gallons of race gas between 8am and 3pm. Man was it a blast. Tony's version of a ride went from Zero to PaulyPaul in 1 dune and it was FREAKIN AWESOME... I got a little laugh out of everyone when we got to the north pole.. hey T could you turn it down just a LITTLE BIT... I think they all had a little sand in their mangina's. I was hurtin but was ready to do it again it was such a blast.
I managed to Finish Fouling a plug within the first 2 min of getting to camp that was fun.. At first i thought the float was stuck because it seemed to only run long enough to drain the bowl then would die.. so we smacked the carb around a little and the fker still wouldnt start.. So on to the plug.. FOULED like a mofo.. after not having the proper tools and finally saying eff it to remove the tank and do it that way we finally got it swapped. Went to turn the gas on and didnt see any flowing thru the tube.. GREAT another problem.. unhooked the fuel line and turned the petcock and flowed no problem.. scratched my head a little and said eff it.. hooked it back up gave the bike a few rocks and kicked fired right up.. Time to ride.
On our way back from the PaulyPaul ride one of the guys in the group managed to strip and aluminum rear sprocket.. After running around like chickens with our head cut off looking for a vendor or someone with a sprocket we decided to try and grind the teeth down with a dremel.. That didnt work so out came the reamer bit that didnt work.. Out came regular drill bits that worked a little then someone in camp walked up and just casually asked.. Hey tony will that spare wheel off your bike fit thats sitting next to your hauler.. we all just did one of these
Some horse shoes a little jaeger and it was off for the final ride.. What was a Lunchtime ride turned into a 3 hour tour just blasting the dunes all over the place.. from one end to the other it was awesome. I wish there were a few others that would have came out but they couldnt it would have made the day that much better but all in all had a great time.
Also met up with flyinryan out there as i rolled up to his camp they had cameras and all kinda crap strapped to his car for some footage so you can expect to see that in the near future..
It was definatley good seeing some old faces and riding with the 2 wheeler crew again.. Nothing like 10 bikes taking off into the dunes to go on a fantabulous run.
I only took 3 pictures.. none of them really post worthy so you will just have to wait for others..
