got back earlier taday. it was a great time at the dunes. i met sidewinder500, bigwaynester, murdr, and shaolinfox. however, i didnt see sandcowboy or atc86r. where were you guys? i hope i get to go back one more time this year, but we have a busy schedule so im not sure. if i do go back, though, im most likely gonna be on a new machine. (raptor or z) or maybe even a kfx 700. i rode bigwaynesters buddy's kfx 700 and it was real nice. its a big, heavy machine, but it really doesnt feel that heavy when your on the gas. i thought with an auto tranny, it would lose a lot of power and speed, but this thing has monster power, decent handling, and very plush suspension. definitely not something to pass up if i find a good deal on one.

i had fun jumping on my dads z400 and i think i got some decent air for it being my first time. it was also a lot of fun opening it up on the straights and roosting around the trees. there was a guy videotaping me and my dad doing donuts and rooster tails. overall, a real good time, but before next trip, i gotta get a faster machine to keep up.

 

I saw you 2 a couple of times. Did your dad get turned back because of penant? If so I saw you 2. Had to leave early fmf fell apart.

 

dc504 hey good to see you had a nice time.You read my post obviously and that why we didn't show up Sat like we told you we would.But it was fun without all the mishaps.Labor Day I m planning on going to Mississippi to ride with my uncle.There is a national forest with some nasty mudholes and hills along a pipline.That is going to be cool,I'll try to get some pics to bring back.Last time I was there instead of a green quad it was totally covered(took 2hrs to clean)with mud.we may go back to silver lakes in Oct or Nov

 

FYI they close at the end of October

 

yep they close end of october i need to get one more trip in! but if i dont, i will see you all there next summer.

 

I had a great time out there! I had quite a few people video tape and take pictures of a whole group of us jumping over the dunes. Was cool to be there to see DC504 take his first jump. Met Bigwaynester, atc86r, and sandcowboy.

My banshee broke down on saturday but it was just sand clogging my idle jet so no biggie a quick fix and was back at it.

Was an absolutely great weekend! I can't wait for my next trip out there but I doubt it will be till next spring.
