Barney called me to let me know that as of now the Dunes are not going to be open for a while......I had called and reserved a spot there for this weekend and he me to let me know that he might not be open!...He is supppose to call me tonight at home and let me know.....I guess if he calls and they are shutting down then it will be Flying W for the weekend!

I sure hope that it is true about the guy a friend of mine knows who is trying to get the dunes. This will be interesting to see what comes of this. Keep us updated.

Barney never told me he was going to give it up which I guess he would not do that anyway but he told me he has a guy in BR right now trying to get something worked out so that they can stay open he said he was having insurance and Lease probs

Well damn it sure would be good if it was someone we knew reopening the area, and then go for a nonprofit club, get monies from the gov. and make a kick *** playground .

It $ucks to here the dunes are closing. But hopefully someone will reopen them soon. It would be nice to have some smooth riding areas and a little more organization.

Shannon, if he calls try and get more details. Ask him if the owner would be willing to sell, if so try and get the owners name.

I have already tried that but Barney did not lose theDunes he is just in the Middle of renewing his Insurance and Lease....I also asked him if he was doing some renovations and he also said no.....So I guess everything we have heard is just rumors...

Red Dirt is fun! The trail is like 35 miles the main thing is just make sure if you go you go with other sport bikes instead of utility bike because you don't want to have to slow down.....We went and rode the whole trail in 3 hours and that was stopping 6 time for five mins breaking!

shaun, I see you're from Pollock so I'm sure you ride at Camp Livingston often right? My grandparents live in Ball and I ride at Livingston sometimes when I go up for a visit. How does Red Dirt compare to Livingston and Camp Claiborne?
