dunefreak Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 It was a great morning shredding those crazy smooth summer dunes. We had a couple close calls but no major mishaps. We got there just after 5 am and it was a gorgeous 80 degrees. The wind blew nice and steady all morning and kept things cool. We ended up staying there until about 11:30 am and then got the hell out. The wind subsided some and it got hot really quick! It was 110° when we left. My car did awesome as usual. It ran strong as hell and it even stayed under 190° all morning. Another successful Dune in June trip in the books! Thanks to dentboy for the shot. I'll get the rest up later once I go through them all. Pretty sure I got some good ones. Thanks to everyone who came out. Great meeting some new faces and duning with you all. 1 Quote

Dent boy Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Great trip and pics. Met some great duners. Good times. Quote
dunefreak Posted June 16, 2015 Author Posted June 16, 2015 Not much conversation from this trip. Everyone must still be catching up on their sleep. Here's a few GoPro shots. Quote

dirtflickarooster Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 What a cool trip. Myself and the guys I was with look forward to the future trips. This one motivated us to go home and get the rest of the toys ready. Everyone out there was super cool and we didn't feel like outcasts even with it being our first time out with the Dumont Dune Riders. The dunes were perfect. The trip is about all any of us are still talking about on our end. The pictures from Pete couldn't be better! Thanks for a good trip! Quote
ItsWeeks Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Pete, great photo's and awesome job on the video. You had your work cut out for you leading a ride during the summer and killed it! Had a great time and was impressed with the rzr since this was our first dune trip with it. I think I have been trying to catch up with sleep Sunday. Quote
dunefreak Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks Jason. Those summer dune are always interesting. So many of our usual lines were non-existent on Sunday. I hear ya on the sleep. I was cool until I was almost home. I usually don't nap after early summer runs but this one I crashed for about 4 hours when I got home. Then my sleep schedule got all jacked up. Worth it though.

stinger Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Epic ride, Awesome video! Thanks for saving the day on the almost slow roller crash . Props to side by side guy I have never seen a belt changed so fast. Looking forward to the next ride already! 1 Quote
DuNe~Rydher Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Awesome video Pete, love how it tells the story of the day Quote
dunefreak Posted June 18, 2015 Author Posted June 18, 2015 Thanks guys. I wish I had video of everyone to include but we weren't stopped long enough for me to get any. Quote
Jakster884 Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 Looks like it was an awesome trip. Thanks for sharing and keeping my Blood pumping watching videos and seeing all the great pics. Quote

ItsWeeks Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 I think I'm ready to do an evening into night ride. Get there with an hour of sunlight to scope the dunes out then get some night riding in. Quote
Sandjoker29 Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Sounds fun but i think i made need more seat time. Edited June 26, 2015 by Sandjoker29 Quote
dunefreak Posted June 27, 2015 Author Posted June 27, 2015 I think I'm ready to do an evening into night ride. Get there with an hour of sunlight to scope the dunes out then get some night riding in. Riding those dunes at night would be super sketchy this time of year, not to mention HOT. Late in the day is the hottest time of day too. We did that once and it was really sketchy and never seemed to cool down after the sun went down. I think I'm gonna wait until either a break in the weather or wait it out a couple months. 1 Quote
DuNe~Rydher Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 no amount of getting up early or staying up late will get us out of this heat Quote
ItsWeeks Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Well when I went to Armagosa and started my ride at 530 am it was suprisingly 69 degress. Quote
Adam @ GTP Off Road Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 It never got below 90* for sure that night. With the temps now it would just be way too hot. At Coral pink it was in the 90's. It was very warm during the day.... Need cooler temps for sure. Quote
