  1. This bike is to nice to be sitting! Price drop to $2550.00 somebody buy this bike and have a great season!!!
  2. I plan on calling Barstow BLM tomorrow to find out about the road and will update as I find out, but the other posts are right slow and easy it is what it it is until they get a grader operator in Barstow,. Now they have to bring one up from Needles and I hope that's there plan for Halloween but understand BLM is going from 0 to 100 this week!
  3. Yeah I agree Pete, Dale has bailed me out on a couple of issues I needed help with. Always felt like I was charged a fair price and he always delivered faster than anyone else would have. great service and great prices. I drool over the cages when I go down there just haven't been able to pull the trigger yet. One of these days!
  4. Pat I am going that weekend also, your more than welcome to come out to #9 and camp with us old codgers. I am sure you have some good stories for around the fire about Idaho.
  5. yes, this only applies to people who go through Indian Springs and over to Pahrump from there. If you licve in the very NW part of the valley it is an easier tow that way. No big hills and almost all freeway. For those of us who use Mt. Potosi and Tecopa or Pahrump to get to Dumont are fine.
  6. For folks that come into Dumont from the US95 side they will be repaving during the day starting Wed. and continuing through the 25th of Oct. Expect delays and flag personal and pilot cars. Crews are working from 5AM to 6 PM. daily.
  7. Nope sold it all to a guy from glamisdunes.com
  8. Sometimes gold bars is what it takes Jim!
  9. I bought a 12" light bar from Mike & Adam for my car. I replaced 2 Lazer star lights that were on the car when I bought it. They were ok but just that ok. They also had to have wires down the frame and zip tied. I hated the look of them so I went with the bar just before the car show. Got the new bar set up and wired in and from what I can tell it would appear that they are going to light my world. They were worth the money and the install is a lot cleaner with no more hanging wires. The wife made me a custom vinyl cover for the bar to protect the lens from sandblast and rock chips. Easily removed when it it's time to go to work. Definitely a good update for the car. Terry
  10. Thanks to all, I may be another year older but I feel like a kid at Christmas waiting for Thursday and to see what the new motor does to my beloved car. The thought of being able to dune without the constant nagging thought of an oncoming implosion is going to be epic. I love Dumont and the freedom it stands for. I never saw the future my life has taken when I woke up in 1975 and looked out the camper window for my first peek at Dumont but I truly believe that there is a connection between that place and me. Sounds weird I know but it is what it is. The dune gods have been good to me and I can't thank them enough along with all the friends I have been able to meet that share part or all of the same feelings I have for that section of dirt. Again thanks for the Birthday wishes, they are mucho appreciated. Terry
  11. If your interested in them I have 2 Lazer Star 100 watt lights available for cheap. PM me if your interested. BTW is there some kind of mount for the mufflers to the frame? From the shots you put up it looks like a lot of weight hanging up there if it does not have something connecting it to the frame. Unsecured weight bouncing means cracked pipes. Just saying
  12. It was just the way he put " Blue Oval" stickers that I thought was humorous. Sorry you missed the joke:)
  13. Blue ovals? ROFLMAO for Chevy man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  14. Hours you would need help? My Grand son could use some bucks but also has to deal with school but has his own transportation
  15. This bike is ready to go for Halloween, Your not going to find a better quad for this years season at a more reasonable price. Somebody make me an offer!!
  16. I got this from a government web site. If they are not providing services they cannot receive income; per fee demo web site, show me where there are 6 services being provided that you would have to pay for if BLM is not there to provide them; More and more people recreate on national forests and grasslands every year. Meeting the increasing needs of these visitors, delivering quality recreation, heritage and wilderness opportunities, and protecting natural resources has become challenging. To help address this issue, President Bush signed the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (REA). The Act permits federal land management agencies to continue charging modest fees at campgrounds, rental cabins, and at day use sites that have certain facilities. The Act defined the following fee categories: Standard Amenity Fees Examples : Picnic areas, developed trailheads, destination visitor centers Explanation : Typically, standard amenity fees are day use fees, often covered by a day or annual pass. Each site or area must contain six "amenities," which are picnic tables, trash receptacle, toilet, parking, interpretive signing and security. Expanded Amenity Fees Examples : Campgrounds, highly developed boat launches and swimming areas, cabin or lookout rentals. Services like hookups, dump stations, special tours, transportation systems and reservation services. Explanation : Provides direct benefits to individuals or groups. Special Recreation Permits Examples : Shooting ranges, special events, specialized trail systems Explanation : Permits are issued when extra measures are required for natural and cultural resource protection, or the health and safety of visitors. They may also be used to disperse recreation use or help ensure that the number of visitors does not exceed the capacity of the land.

Would be a good fight if it came to it in court.Can't see how Mike. You can call the Federal BLM law enforcement office at 202 208-6913 and ask Cecilia to have the local El Centro chief LEO call you as you have questions.
  17. I got the information on the passes from the Chief ranger out of Barstow BLM office. Pat told me no services provided no fee demo required. I will stand on that.
  18. I would imagine that they are working but since their are NO government services the purchase of passes is not required.
  19. It is surprising that #1 went out as they are usually reserved for the members of the sub-group. I have had #1 or #2 for years. Maybe with the new management at Barstow we won't get any reimbursement for our 5 trips to Barstow a year. Wouldn't surprise me a bit.
  20. Bike has new wrap on plastic and seat cover, Yoshi header with heat shield and Yoshi muffler. Lightened thumb throttle spring for easier riding and shocks are re-valved to a 130-160 LB rider. Dune star paddles V blade on ITP wheels and Dune Star front tires on black label Douglas wheels. Stock tires and rims are in like new condition. Garage kept and well maintained. $2550.00 O.B.O. Bike has just been readied for dune season, fresh oil & filter, chain lubed and adjusted, K&N filter with outerwear cleaned and oiled. Call Terry at 702 596-8234 Henderson, NV
  21. Yeah well nothing was written in stone and who knows I may do all the trips, I'm retired remember? Just not rich unfortunately
  22. Why is this my fault? I think you should talk to your employer In my humble opinion!
  23. Jeez Pete can't I have a little fun once in awhile?
  24. I am open to it but have not made up my mind. If the Government is shut down and there is no LEO/EMT presence on Halloween I would not put my life nor my families lives in danger due to a busy weekend with no controls and to many past Halloweens where things were barely kept in control with BLM presence there. People seem to get over excited because maybe they got a new toy or there just needing to punish some sand but I have watched to many helicopters (more than any other holiday weekend) COME IN. without blm TO CALL FOR FLIGHTS THE CHANCES OF SOMEONE GETTING SERIOUSALLY HURT OR DYING INCREASES 100 FOLD. I WOULD NOT PUT MY FAMILY IN SUCH A POSITION AS THE SAND DUNES WILL WAIT FOR ME TO BRING MY OWN PUNISHMENT TO THEM AT ANOTHER SAFER TIME.
