DuNe~Rydher

Glad it went well! weather sounds nice, we'll be out there Christmas day after opening presents 25-29th. Should have the new RZR by then lets ride!

X2 for Shock Therapy in AZ

Crazy you took this pic, I was watching that scene develop as well, as soon as the moon started peeking I scrambled for the camera only to find out I left the batteries at home, duh! I'm glad you caught it, great pic!

This isn't much of a trip report so I put it here in General Chat. Took the wife and kid out to the D for the first weekend of the season (darn jobs) and had a blast. The sand was smooth especially following a big weekend and the weather was great..although still a little warm! The quad felt like a rocket under my a$$ after the top end rebuild with port job and fresh piston. big fires, great rides, good bbq, smooth sand, and my girls with me made it a great weekend....BUT..... What REALLY made this trip is my wife finally got sick of driving our daughter around in our old rhino and gave me the nod for the new RZR xp4 1000! Wooo! I almost made her put it in writing haha. Now, the hunt is on! Sorry no pics was to busy!

Great news, be there tomorrow

So since the Holiday is on Tuesday this trip won't be as long as I want but it's all good. Ill be out there with the family early Saturday morning and we'll head back to Vegas Monday morning. We'll probably be close to the ridge line to the left of the Ranger station as you come in so my daughter can ride around on the harder stuff and down behind in the little trails. Feel free to stop by, hope to see you out there. Steve

live updates from Dumont...as I sit at work...what a tease. Awesome though, love seeing the action, have fun and be safe!

Hahahaha :surrender:

The trailer looks great! Definitely would make me come check you guys out if I didn't already know of you! Good luck out there.

18mph?! That's nothing...dune on.

Might be there, I get that day off (Tuesday) but have to work Monday so that kinda throws a wrench in the long weekend.

Same thing as White Rhino, I take casual strolls through the dunes with my daughter who is almost 3 with her in a baby seat strapped in the back seat of a rhino with 4 point harness and 2" ratchet strap which makes it TIGHT. Talked to rangers as well they've never said a word. Been doing this since she was born. Back then she didn't have to have a helmet but with the new law they do. (everyone in a sxs does) so depending on your childs age/size it could be difficult for them to support a helmet. Have fun!

Know your limits, don' try to be joe cool and push things passed your skill level...Not only does it put you at risk it puts other innocents around you at risk. It's not just you out there! Agreed, A wise man once told me when I bought my first street bike at 18...The second this bike doesn't scare you, sell it. Now by no means am I saying sell your toys..but never think you're invincible, a little fear is ok, it keeps your alert and doesn't let you get complacent. Be safe guys and girls! Live to ride another day...

The Baker route and "back" route both have a steep grade. The back way you have a set of switch backs where you have to be careful of on coming traffic coming blind around the corner. With that being said I've never gone to Dumont the Baker way it probably takes 30 mins longer, but I've driven to Cali plenty of times and that loooooong grade would suck. West on Blue Diamond every time for me!

I wish I had the 31st off!! The damn DOD doesn't celebrate Nevada day

Can't make it out for the weekend before Halloween due to work, so i'm looking to make up for it by going Veterans day weekend AND Thanksgiving. (Thanksgiving is locked in) I know it's a a month out but I wanted to throw it out there and see if anyone was planning on heading out that weekend. The actualy Holiday is Tuesday Nov 11th so we'd prob go Saturday-Tuesday. Getting a great job after getting out of the Air Force is a blessing but acruing vaction time and starting at 0 right before Dumont season sucks Lemme know!

Well it was just a day trip for me but a great day it was. Rolled in a few minutes after 6:00am as the sun was just starting to peek and was loving the nice cool weather. Dropped the quad out of the truck bed and was ready to go feel that sand under the wheels. Started meeting people as they woke up, showed up....and a few minutes later everyone was firing up! Man that first ride was as close to perfect as you can get, smooth sand, good lines, cool breeze, and a great pace. The next ride was more of the same..it was getting warm but as long as you were moving it was alllll gooood. I think I loaded up around 1:00pm to head out, I planned on doing another run but after the group effort of snatching out a stuck motor home I was beat. If I had a car I probably would have done another but that quad wears me out! Came home and talked to the wife about a car lol. It was great finally meeting you all and even better riding with you. Thanks Terry for leading some great runs and sorry for getting you sideways in that motor home! Until next time...

@@fastony Hey man with most people going earlier or from out of town i'm not going to bother meeting at the gas station, I live right off blue diamond so i'm litterally just gona roll out of bed and hit the road, i'll be there between 6:00-6:30am. Mike don't be startled when I roll up to your camp before the sun comes up Looking forward to meeting you all.
