Default 1st time to Pismo on the 29th

I'm going to be maing my 1st trip to Pismo on July29th thru 31st.

I know about airing down etc, but wondering about the ATV -- A Bomb 650-- should I use the knobbies or put the paddles on?

Also, we have a Suzi LTZ400S street bike & a Yamaha 125 -- Are thses going to get around ok w/ knobbies, or should we leave them home??

If you've got paddles, I'd put them on... the dunes aren't real big at Pismo.. but it may help give you a liitle more traction, plus... you look cool.. hahaha![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

look for the section where it looks like a dozer piled up the sand. head right for the middle, that is a fun place to ride.

Yea, you should definitley watch out for that. Can be real hazardous at night. As for paddles, if you have them bring em'. I personally think you could manage w/o them. I did it on a 125 dirtbike w/o a paddle in mid summer. But it is definitley better to have them.

Have Fun!

Glad you had a great weekend Seadog[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I take it you weren't bothered by the crowd or wind/weather.
