It blew hard from about 5pm-11:30pm sat night, but we already had a full day of duning in with gorgeous weather. Then Sunday was crazy nice until sun down it started out breezy on our ride then picked up some as the sun went down below the mountain. I must have had my head turned just right or I'm immune to the sand sting because I don't remember it hurting on Sundays last ride. We were the only ones out there tearing it up. It was super easy to read the smooth dunes even with the gnarly winds because the sun was so low.
