Default Any good dunes in Northern Cali?

Hey, does anybody know of any good dunes to ride in northern cali. Always looking for new spots to ride. The oregon dunes are great but I want to venture out and see some new terrain.

Even though Pismo is not technically Northern California.. it's only a short 4 1/2 hours drive from the Bay Area hauling a toy hauler... Pismo is a great place to ride and if you haven't been, I would suggest checking it out!! Just make sure you make reservations before going.. the beach can sell out any weekend and it's worth the time and $7.00 fee to make the reservation to guarantee your spot (www.reserveamerica.com). Have fun![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

if you have ridden the oregon dunes, you wouldnt want to make the 10-12 hour drive from oregon to pismo, it it very small. I dont know if you have checked it out but in southern oregon there are the christmas valley sand dunes, never ridden there but i heard it was good sized, but no huge dunes, would still be a place close to you to try.
