A bunch of us Glamis Dunes.comers paid the price this weekend. Glamis took its anger out on us?

Hey PP. Can you tell me, once they are all healed, when and where you guys are going out again? I'd like to bring some cameras!!

Hey PP, we all came back ok. Woody rolled once when his tire caught in some soft sand turning on a slip face, Jason's rear caliper completely sheered off his bike, and Jake's shift drive snapped. All in all, everyone is ok.

Mike got back on, kept ridding with just a broken whip to show for it. I already have a new caliper for Jason, so he just needs to find a brake line. Clay says he is going to take Jakes bike back in and have it repaired under warranty.

Sand was really soft. My 450 was struggling in the big bowls, just digging in trying to climb some of the hills.

All the slip faces were pointed North, in early June they were pointed East. Not to many witch eyes, but most of the slip faces were S curves, not rounded out.

Got to admit though, it was shapping up to be a rough night at first!
Grump hopped on his quad after unlading it. Rode about 100 yards and it died.

Wouldn't start, we were all yealing at him to "Turn the gas on Dummy!", but he couldn't hear us. He finally managed to get it started and back to camp, we asked what was wrong and he said "I forgot to turn the gas on". We were all like "

".

Then Slop hops on his quad after unloading it, riding around camp it was running real rough. He rolls back into camp, looks at me and says "what's wrong with this thing". I started telling him that they [i.e. 250R's] can be like that when they're cold, they just need to be 'blown out'... or maybe your choke is on?

<--that was the look I got right before

Most of us will be out the same weekend in Sept. It will be our pre season work trip. We will be in the Compound getting it ready. A few improvements, etc.....

I'm still sore today. From what my wife and daughter say, I'm "grumpy" too (not in a Brandon way) But what do they know? Screw them!!! Who are they to say who's grumpy? I'M NOT GRUMPY!!!! I'M JUST FINE!!! It ain't me who walks across the floor and makes noise when I'm trying to sleep. I don't sit there and whine because my soccer team SUCKS!!!! I just want a little peace and quiet. And ya it would be nice if one of them would learn how to take out the trash.

Would divorce or murder by your wife and or daughter be considered a "casualty"?
