I just got back from Johnny Walkers picking up a season pass. There is a notice on the wall pertaining to a $500 fine and the season passes. So I asked Dusty what that is all about and he said the BLM has been going into camps checking passes for proof of purchase. I guess if the pass isn't yours or you can't prove it's your it is a $250-500 fine in addition to confiscating it of course. So now they want you to save your receipt to show as further proof. This is getting ridiculous. I guess we could tape the receipt to the pass, but that makes it nice and convenient for someone who might get their hands on my pass.

Sorry, no Poker Run this year. There were a couple factors why we chose not to do it, but it doesn't mean we won't do it in the future.

I can't make it. It's not the drive, it's the lack of time and I don't have a flatbed anyways. Wish I could make it.

haha nice! Sometimes the pumpkins with the imperfections are the best ones to decorate. Yes they were. I was just looking through some pics I had and those were the first ones to pop up. Sucks you can't make it out this Halloween, Steve.

Has anybody ever carved up some DDR or dune related pumpkins? I think it would be funny to have a DDR pumpkin carving contest this year. haha Carve up a pumpkin, post a picture and we vote on it like the DPOM.

+1 more. Same here as well. You got peeps yo!

Halloween is still one of the biggest regardless. We always bring at least a couple bags of candy because kids come if large groups out at D. I have found that if you hang up lights and decorations you better be ready.

Did anybody go to the Monster Energy Cup last night here in Vegas? I thought the track layout was pretty damn cool. It was fast paced like a motocross track, but still had a taste of supercross here and there. Those jumps were nice and big too. Villopoto was flying! Good for him. $1M from just one race. And he just got married so perfect timing to go on his honeymoon as a millionaire.

You guys are dedicated. That's too cool. Not many people these days go out of their way like you are. I think you guys should have a donation bucket set out to help with the expenses and so people can show their appreciation. It wouldn't be against any rules either because you are not charging. It's just a tip jar.

Gold Butte is a very popular spot with the dual sport group I ride with. I'll pass the info on to them as soon as I figure it out. I would like to help by sending an email, but I now have a headache trying to read through all that. Terry, the best way to get help is to post this stuff in much more simplified terms. It's unfortunate but true that most people will just read all the mumble jumble and say screw that. I don't even know what half of that info is pertaining to. So what you are saying is write an email to our states senator or ...? There's a few names listed there and I have no clue who they are. Just trying to understand. Hopefully you can clarify. Your better at reading this stuff and picking out the important/ relevant info. ps: might wanna delete the email addresses from your post to protect people's privacy.

Andy you can pull up with us if you make it out. We only got to chat for like 3 minutes at the regatta anyways. haha Just hit me up if you end up making it out. Would you be bringing the car?

whaaaaaat?

Hey old man, happy birthday!

Go for it! I have no problem getting more people to come as long as they are ATC70 enthusiasts.

You bring an old lady with you on dune runs?

Dude that's badass! Thanks Chris. That's way cool to throw that together!

This looks like you guys are going to have one really cool setup! We'll stop by and check it out on Sat night for sure.

Only a little more than 2 weeks away! I'm getting stoked as I get the buggy and hauler dialed in.

As I get ready for the season I am stocking up on all the necessary items to keep in my car for dune runs. Since I bought my Tech 3, I have always just used a backpack to bring along the usual recovery strap, tools, zip ties, etc. I came across some cool frame mounted storage bags for sunglasses, recovery strap, etc...http://www.pacificcu...ow=&range_high= Then I am going to load some tools up in one of these. i have plenty of places to mount one. http://www.pacificcu...ow=&range_high= I am just curious how everyone else stores their tools, straps, etc in their cars. If you have some links, pics, or part numbers for storage bags/ boxes. containers...please post them up!

Foam is always better, but a K&N with an outerwear works good too.

Did you manage to cram all those toys in the one enclosed trailer? That's alot of stuff for a day trip. haha I bet it was gorgeous out there yesterday. The weather was super nice.

So the date isn't 100% set in stone yet, but as everyone gets ready for the new dune season...here is the tentative date for the 4th annual ATC70 regatta out at the big D. 4th annual ATC70 regatta at Dumont: Feb 4, 2012 ....more details to come later. This is only to let everyone know about the date. I doubt it will change, but I just wanted to let everyone know who likes to plan ahead. Luckily we got our permit packet and paperwork submitted in time back in July and got the ball rolling early with the new BLM special event rules and all. So far it's lookin real good and we're looking forward to another epic gathering of 70's and great people out at Dumont for our 4th annual 70cc event.

Thanks, Vic. It was pretty cool, but this is pretty much a daily thing for Anna so it wasn't anything new for her. I still can't believe the "double push" worked so well for us. They pushed and wham...we were up! They didn't even demonstrate it for us first. They said, just float on your stomach and keep your legs straight. Fuggin Jamaicans. Gotta love em. It worked perfectly. That's some funny shizz. I thought that pic looked like I was saying, nah! Get outta here!!! LOL Thanks R. It was such a good trip, we will probably be going back pretty soon. We've been staying in contact with some friends that we made while we were there. Nice. What town is he staying in? Thanks Woods. This place is highly recommended. When you stay at a place like we did, you never run out of sh*t to do and there is never a reason to even leave the resort. Yep, it was really cool and not cool at the same time. hahaa I was ok with it until the trainer purposely slapped the water in front of his face and the shark snapped it's jaws at him. That made me realize how quick and powerful these guys were.
