I will be there with my wife but in a ATV class from 10-about 2 (This is that thing where the ATV mfgr. will pay us to attend the ATV class from when we bought the new ATV's. Hey, I'll sit through the class for the $100 each. 200 bucks is 200 bucks.)

I will be parked on the left in the gravel just after the big left turn. I have a Durango with the quads on a trailer that the sides come down and act as a ramp for loading the ATV's.

I have a yellow DS and my wife rides a blue Warrior.

I will look for you,

Mark

 

Hey RaptorFrog:

Sorry I couldn't escape to ride on Saturday. The class ran longer than they said it would (his boss was there so I think he was dotting all the "i's" and crossing all the "t's".)

Is it your buddies with the 400's that are looking to get the DS 650s?

Let's try to get up to Marysville or something next weekend (Prairie City was sloppy.)

Have you gone to Sand Mt.?

 

I finally talked my friends into going to Prarie City on Sunday. Man was it muddy! But a blast nonetheless!

 

Check out eBay for used DS's.

Went to Marysville (CA) yesterday. Had a blast.

Dirt:
It is much better than Prairie City right now since it is mostly sand. The last time I was at Prairie city, I brought a hose and rinsed off for about 30 minutes/bike then went to a pressure washer in town and still didn't get it off my tires. I hosed off yesterday after getting home for about 10 minutes and no pressure washer was needed.

Riding:
My arms are so sore today. There are a lot of whoops and they worked me. I liked the variety though. We really opened up on the levie road. This is where I am glad I do not have any more power, I was going too fast for me but yet, I couldn't stop pushing the throttle. Scary!

About the Baja I saw:
I met a guy that had just bought a Baja from a dealer in Salinas. I asked him if they were dealing on these at all and he told me he paid $9400 out the door. OUCH! I think he got an extended warranty or something but still, the bikes are what, $7400 list + 8% tax + (about $100 fees) = $8100. Were did the other $1300 come in? He had no extras. Pipe std., tires std. (for Baja), CDI std. ??? I met another guy in Pismo after X-mas that paid list + tax, fees, etc. I don't think anyone in CA is dealing on these Baja's right now and doesn't sound like they are dealing on the DS650's either. End of last summer they were dealing and offering factory rebates. Bomb. is not doing a good job with this. I didn't have the heart to tell the guy that I paid around $6K (including rebate) for mine. OUCH!

 

Hey TheFasterTheBetter,
Sorry I missed you guys this weekend,Didnt get crzr's motor put back together till late Saturday which left me no time to prep my Baja. Plus I had ton's of other things I had to do that I have been putting off.
Keep me posted on future rides still.
