Sounds like fun, wish I could make it

I need to get some better lights anyways before I ride at night again

We did a day trip on Sunday. We're there about 30 minutes. Two guys come up to us in an old two seater. The passengers 5 seater broke an axle(stupid hi-line drive axle) in the big bowl behind comp. So, Scott and I follow them over there. I hook up the rzr to the old rail then hook it up to the broken rail. On the third attempt dragging them around the bowl, we were finally able to get it up and over the razor and back to camp. . Go on a few rides. We then decide to attempt to go to the north pole. On the way out to the north pole, my daughters motor locked on her new to her blaster!! . We proceed to tow it back to camp and get stuck in some soft stuff. After getting un stuck, I then got run over by the dead blaster in tow!!!! Long story, let's just say I can't run fast in deep soft sand!!! . Ok, at this point I'm over it x10. We load up and proceed to the road. As we aproach the road I hit and old fire pit and the rzr's bumper met my back window!!! Awesome!!! At that point I could do nothing but just laugh at the days events. So, I wont tell myself that next seasons last trip of the season is the last trip of the season!!!! Eff you Dumont, no night drags or early A.M rides this summer. I'll see you in October!

Sorry to hear about your misfortune.....but that right there is one funny story...gave me a good laugh this morning at work. Just when you think it can't get worse......it usually does

this was 2 years ago just marking the date

didn't notice that till just now.....my bad

:ah: WOW that sux

Get better soon, I feel your pain...well kinda....we were out there this weekend too. The weekend was cut short when my friend broke his wrist, nose, and split his cheek open following me over a drop off.

Thanks guys, yeah my back is fine, a little sore. My buddy is doing ok, got some good meds from the doctor....just waiting to get his cast on. Bad part is that he owns a custom cabinet shop, so now he is going to be unable to work for a few weeks.

:rant_on: our whole weekend was ruined Friday night, only 10 minutes into riding. Wanted to get there by 1:30, didn't arrive till 4:30. Set up camp...took almost 2 hours to unload the toy hauler. Girls went out on the Rhino, my friend & I rushed to get the paddles on the quads. Raced to catch up with the girls, didn't take the time to survey the terrain, lots of shadows on the dunes. Coming down one of the larger hills, didn't see a drop off.....I was out ahead, slammed on the brakes when I seen the drop off, came down hard and compressed my spine.....but that's not the bad part. My buddy was behind me, seen me drop off so he pulled up and hit the gas....getting completely airborne.....came down hard, broke the handle bars with his face/helmet, bars went into his goggles, broke his nose, cut his cheek pretty deep, and broke his wrist!!!

Went back to camp, his wife was a nurse in the Navy so she bandaged him up pretty good, but she didn't think his arm was broke cause there was no bone fragments that she could feel and he could move it. He was pretty pissed about what happened and didn't want to ruin our weekend so he took some pain killers, downed some beers, . Woke up Saturday morning and he looked like hell!! His eye was swollen shut and black and blue. His arm was now twice the size and he could barely move it.....so we packed up camp and brought him to UMC in Las Vegas. :beer_bang:

I can't be mad at him, just sucks that we missed 3 days of riding, the races, and spent about $200 on diesel to drive back and forth for nothing....but I guess that's the chance you take

I'll be out there 17th-19th

I'm a newbie but I'd love to meet some of you guys, first round on me . Already introduced myself to Dunefreak in my newbie thread.

My name is Ty, incase the screen name didn't give that away.

I'll be on my black & red Raptor 660. Our camp will hopefully be near bathroom 6, just look for the yellow F350.
