Man o man what a weekend.
Got a late start to the weekend but showed up right as dunefreak was getting ready to setup for the poker run. Helped them set up a bit then headed off to grab a truck some cards and a table to man a checkpoint. Was a great turnout for the poker run. Saw alot of familiar faces and met alot of new ones. It was great seeing everyone again. Like ninjagreengirl put it back in camp its like the first day of school. Seeing all your old friends and meeting new ones again Sure was great to get back in the sand.
After the poker run went on a couple great and FAST runs on the quad. First run of the day i was so excited to get to dumont and ride i forgot to top off the tank and i turned the fuel valve to reserve and wouldnt ya know it. I ran out of gas about a dune in from banshee hill on the way back lol. Chadwick ran off and got me a couple bottles of gas went back topped off and headed out again. We must have rode for a good 3-4hrs with a few breaks in there to let the bikes cool down and regain our composure lol. I couldnt be happier with the sand pig (ds650) of mine. It just kept on taking a beating and it was super comfy to ride. I do need to make some changes to it but all for the better.
Saturday night in camp was "mellow" to say the least and was a nice change. Just a few friends sitting around the campfire some background music from justin and julies hauler it was very nice. I called it a night around 10ish went in to watch a movie and hit the sack since i only had 3 hours of sleep from the night before..
Sunday morning was a beautiful ride. The constant breeze/wind from the night before cleaned up the sand and it was like virgin dunes all over again.
Gotta thank brian from thumpertalk for the impromptu usage of his trailer so i could get my bike out. Along with all the other members and volunteers that put on the poker run. And last but not least ninjagreengirl and skinner for letting me crash in their new hauler
Thanks everyone for coming out cant wait to do it again soon.
