alright good deal.
ok sense it's the new year, and i like to plan ahead. what should we set the date for on this trip. what days will there be tons of people there? because i would like to avoid those days.
Count me in for this ride, it'll be my first group ride/first time in the sand too!
How about May or June 2009 instead of April? ??? Give it a chance to warm up some.
Do not go during Rattlesnake roundup. It's PACKED out there when that's going on.

May or June is brutal on the sand. 105+ out on the sand. Too hot.
Fall or Spring isn't bad there. Rattlesnake roundup is in the last week of April, and it's hot then!

that's around the same time as the first silver lake raptor rally. i figure more people would be able to come to this trip if they could save up some more money for it.
done they ushally have one more ride other then the rattlesnake round up?

yep, sandfest...and sandjam, too. Rattlesnake is the busiest though.
www.waynoka.com
Look here ladies, I'll go Saturday and scope it out for you. :grin_nod:
Seriously though, I'll go Saturday and check it out for you Nancys. :grin_nod:
.....and get some video.
The busiest time at little Sahara is between March-November. End of July-Beginning of August is swelter hot 100+ degrees w/80+ humidity. I know some of you say don't go on Snake Run or Sandfest, but they are fun as hell. They should be gone to at least once in a lifetime. During those events, we usually go out on Wednesday and ride like madman till Friday. Most people show up on Friday. Then we kinda hang low and watch all the stuff go on, then ride ballz out on Sunday while everyone is packing up.
For all you city folk, the motels have been booked up 1-2 months in advance for about the last year or so.

Lets start looking early october weekends. Not too late, less chance for freak winter weather. It was crowded by Friday afternoon, but not overcrowded.
October 7,8,9,10 for a start, but don't post it yet. And shut up 4gunz we know you will be there :lol:

Nope...just Para-Sail rally Oct 16-18th...that would be sweet to fly over the dunes!
When we were just out there, Jetmech and I were almost alone in the park haulin ass.. he goes by me full bore it sounds like a turbine. I'm like WTF is in his motor! :lol: I look up and there is an FA/18 Hornet (I think, it was CRUISIN!). Killer, he never saw it!
Here is the link to chamber of commerce Warren. The "avard folk fest" has no effect on dunes, I think it is music and art.

Rattlesnake is March, Sandfest is Sept. it's good. :thumbs: Tentatively penciling this one in if we are still employed. :lol:
well hell lets make the trip for the weekend of the 10th then. :thumbs:
My vote is for October 1 - 4th
ok so we have 2 weekends to decide from here. the first or the second weekend in october. what's everyone think? i don't really care which one as long as i'm going. lol
I'd like to ride with you guys, I'm there. LS is only a short 5hr drive for me.

I went yesterday and there was 18 people in the whole place. :clap:
Just so you guys know, October is packed ballz deep every weekend, because of the nice weather. Thursday nite - Sunday morning its almost impossible to get a campsite on the south side and north side is almost as bad.

True dat, get there Wednesday morning. We saw two other quads that morning, but Packed by Friday morning. :thumbs: But not so bad it wasn't fun. You gotta ride at least once with the crowds just to see all the wild machines and crazy $hit people do. :thumbs:

Will do. I am leaving this trip on the calendar. Worst case scenario, I have to move it up or back a week to coincide with Nichole's work schedule. :thumbs:

So how about we start a "Send Ranger to Little Sahara" fund haha...Definitely would like to do a little duning at least once with my 700...Paddles or not.
here will be my route
if all works well, I will grab Socal in Chi-town and be picking up people and quads along the way
looking into getting a van for people and my hauler to pull quads
split the gas costs, and we are smiling!
here is the route, who is "on the way"?
(http://www.pczhosting.net/images/route.jpg)
Sweet.
Here's our route to LS. We'll have two quads on the trailer with room for two more :thumbs:

troy31 is nearby, plus GIR, troywcc, theshee, or russ to could meet here and ride the whole way.
