Neither do I.

But I'm learning, I guess that's worth something. The track? Maybe.

Hey people were telling you that you would never see 11's with your setup in your 1/2 ton.... I am sure you will have that diesel turning heads in due time also

We need to get some of the guys who ride together for a trip to Glamis, Gordon's Well, or Buttercup sometime this winter. It could be a lot of fun (wish we had one of these with an ATV)

Funny you say that. There is a group of guys that we meant riding up in PA from NY that go out every year. Havn't priced it, but I am sure it would be pricey to get the stuff out there..

I'm out in the dunes at least once a week all year, I love that **** during the summer I only ride between midnight and 8am due to the ridiculous heat.

Most people hitch up trailers and carpoo their buddies and quads across the country for a four-day weekend in the Imperial Sand Dunes. Some people fly out and rent quads from these guys: Great Attractions AZ | ATV Rentals & More | Serving Yuma & Other Areas Either way it's something every rider needs to experience, no doubt. I personally prefer to ride on the quieter days; there are fewer sandrail ruts in the big bowls when it's not so busy. Most people hit it hard on the weekends from Halloween to about a month or so past President's Day, usually on the holiday weekends. Halloween, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, MLK Jr Day, President's Day. If you decide to get together a trip, let me know in advance; I know these dunes quite well and the only time this winter when I won't be available to ride is during the last two weeks of November.
