  1. This is the cleanest quad for sale you will find. I know everyone says so but if you see it you will know it to be true. The bike belongs to my ex-wife who has not ridden the quad in 2 years since we split. It has a total of 4-5 rides on it and they were easy rides. The quad is set up nicely with a Pro Design / K&N air intake, CT racing full exhaust system, AC Racing Nerf Bars and the Cam Mod. Otherwise it is stock. It also comes with a full set of ITP Sand Star tires, front and back. She is in need of selling the quad so please only serious buyers please. Call 702-375-4556 and ask for Ron for more info and to set up time to see quad.
  2. Is my Welsh flag OK? I know I don't want to be a racist like those who fly the rebel flag or like those who fly the nazi/german flags... Brit, you seem to be well informed on the topic since you are someone that looks in from the outside so can you please set us all straight. I am sure no one here on DDR wants to be a racist...
  3. Even in the case of a dog, probable cause is still required to initiate a search. Routine traffic stops do not constitute probable cause for search and even with a dog, there must be reasonable suspicion of an illegal act or crime. None the less, the point is to never give consent. Whether you have or do not have anything to hide, make them jump through the hoops necessary to catch you. It is your 4th amendment right. Amendment IV The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
  4. Here is some information for you all. I learned this the hard way so I am certain of it's accuracy. 1st: It is not illegal to buy the fireworks in NYE County. 2nd: It IS illegal to light them off in Nye County, Clark Co., or California. 3rd: It is illegal to transport them across county and state line. 4th: It is a FEDERAL Crime to transport an 'explosive' device across state lines. 5th: Dumont is governed by the BLM which is a Federal Agency so federal laws apply. 6th: The initial/lowest fine is $75 to $500. It is at the LEO's discretion. 7th: At the LEO's discretion, you can be charged with; transportation across state lines, possession, and use of an 'explosive device', all of which can be federal felonies with heavy fines or jail time. Also, on a different note, you do not have to allow a search of vehicle with out probable cause. A traffic stop for speeding and such does not constitute probable cause and you have the right to refuse a search. Do not allow the law enforcement officers tell you otherwise. With out valid probable cause, you have a right against search. This I also know first hand as I was driving back on route 160 just before the 4th of July and was stopped. After a very long wait on the side of the road, and several State Police, BLM Rangers and Metro showed up, I was allowed to leave with out a search as no warrant was issued and no legal probable cause was cited. An exception to this is the Agri. Check Points. I would advise against the use of fireworks at Dumont. Just find a good spot on one of the high hills and watch the show that others are willing to take the risk to put on.
  5. More importantly, if you are from CA and happen to have the right permits to carry/posses a firearm, you still will face significant penalties for shooting in a restricted area. If you are from Nevada or anywhere else, there is NO RECIPROCITY for carry concealed permits for hand guns. You are also not allowed to carry a rifle or shotgun across the state line except by special permit during hunting season. There are very stiff felony penalties that will have sever impact your future. Don't risk it. By the way, I support our 2nd Amendment Right.
  6. Just a collection of comments that I agree with. I personally go to Dumont on the holiday weekends for the show, the tailgating and the party at comp. The riding is not all that fun on a holiday weekend with so many people out there and all the rough tracks after a day or two. When I want to get my ride on, I go on the off weekends. I agree that there is a problem with comp on the big holiday weekends with trash, glass and such. I also have in the past made a point to those I see leaving trash and and glass and such to pick up their sh#t. I have also picked up others trash that was been left behind and will continue to do so. Beyond that, each individual has a right to enjoy the dunes how he/she sees fit. Abide by the rules and the rest is up to the individual. If you are not comfortable with the crowd and it offends you sensibilities to see a stripper pole, if you are too afraid that something bad is going to happen to you because of people having fun and partying, then don't go. It is your individual right to choose not to go just as it is another's right to go. If you do go, do your part in 'helping' those who don't get it to get it, the clean up aspect that is.
  7. I agree. This is the heart of the issue. However, where there is clearly open access to the top of the dune, and someone takes it upon themselves to tear down the tape, then they are as much a part of the problem as those who are on the other side blocking the access. The lack of respect shown on both sides only leads to more lack of respect. I also do not believe legislating the behavior is the right answer. This is a nuisance issue. The more rules we pass on nuisance issues, and not substantive issues, just become more of a distraction that the LEO's have to deal with. They should be focusing on the real dangerous issues like DUI, open containers, reckless riding around camps, firebombs and people who leave their trash behind. Just my 2cents.
  8. What is amazing is the sense of entitlement by some. It appears that some of you feel it is your right to determine for others where and how they should enjoy the dunes. It seems you have forgotten that one individuals rights begin where another's end. It is entirely acceptable for people with kids to camp near the finger dunes if they choose. It is also entirely acceptable, imho, to mark the area for safety. What materials used to mark the area should be considered and should not endanger people passing by in any way. Also, out of respect, if one chooses to camp near the finger dunes, they should not block access to the top of the dune where most people ride. It is an open riding area after all. For those of you who feel the need to tear down others tape and cones and what not, I hope you are not unfortunate enough to tear down mine. I generally do not camp near the finger dunes as I like as much peace and quite at night as possible. You will never hear me complain about the noise @ 1:00, 2:00 or even 5:30 am. However, I have friends who like to camp near the finger dunes and on occasion I have camped with them. There always seem to be someone who thinks they are the "finger dune Police" and my friend's tape has been pulled down. I can tell you that the area marked off has never been unreasonable, has never limited access to or the ability to ride on the dune. Red cones and yellow glow in the dark tape is what was used. On several occasions where the opportunity existed, they were caught and made to return and put the tape back up. What we need to remember is that an ounce of common sense, and a little respect for others is all it takes for us all to have a good time, even when we disagree on certain issues. Just my two cents.
  9. What time? I will attend. I will also make available a car-pool for others who want to go. I have room for three other individuals. Let's see if we can get the word out and get people motivated to attend.
