Dune Fest was sweet, who went?

I was there. and was dissappointed. the sand and the dunes are great, the facists running the dunefest sucked. the people who ran safety inspections must work for Donald rumsfield, and the Dept. of Oregon Duneland security. come on, pat searches, looking for hidden spots on your machine to see if your sneaking in a can of beer. and the worst part, coming to our RV and demanding to search inside. the only option was to leave, with no refund. all the people i talked to who had attended in past years, all are disspointed by the draconian security measures. but mind you, selective enforcement. so concerned with people sneaking in a six-pack, they never bothered to enforce the noise limit.
I will come back, but never to Dunefest

Sandbomber,
It was good meeting you at Dunefest. As for next year, I can't go into too much detail, but I have been somewhat successful at getting some considerations and changes proposed by the Reedsport C of C comittee for next year. I have gotten Fullbore (Fest sponsor from three years ago) to talk to them again as well as some other significant entities in the ATV world. My intent is to rejuvenate Dunefest back to it's old glory. I understand some of their concerns, but it should not be a choke hold on ATV enthusiast attending in the true spirit of the sport. We should be able to come to some sort of balance between safety concerns and actually having fun. I will try to keep you folks in the loop as things progress. Dunefest should be a premier ATV event and in my personal opinion (no insult intended), nobody loves their ATV riding like folks from the Northwest[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Take care and be safe[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

hey terry since you have someones ear they should concider two tracks, and more course events. the guys that race spend to much time in line. and maybe a little better posting of events, since someone missed the fourstroke class due to misprint on that. anything they can do to get people involved is going to help the event. and didn't they have a mx track in the sand two years ago? lot of people want something like that.
