                                This is one event that we truly look forward 
                                  to attending each year because the Yamaha crew 
                                  really goes out of their way to make it a fun 
                                  experience, and 2012 was no different as they 
                                  arranged some for special guest to attend along 
                                  with some fun activities and great food for 
                                  our two day adventure out in Glamis, and we 
                                  were very pleased to see the Camp Chef crew 
                                  return to provide an array of delicious camping-inspired 
                                  cuisine.

                                        arrived in Glamis on Tuesday morning, 
                                        and once again Camp-N-Style rentals provided 
                                        us with Weekend Warrior campers for our

                                This was the second year for the Camp Chef 
                                  crew to be a part of the Yamaha SE press event, 
                                  and we couldn’t have been happier because 
                                  we knew we were in store for some great food 
                                  that was cooked on their exceptional outdoor 
                                  cooking gear. Camp Chef makes an incredibly 
                                  wide line of outdoor cooking equipment, including 
                                  grills, gas ovens, Dutch ovens and smokers to 
                                  name a few. Their cooking gear is designed to 
                                  be portable, yet built to last, which makes 
                                  it perfect for taking camping, and Camp Chef’s 
                                  Steve McGrath and Matt Anderson treated us to 
                                  some delicious meals.

                                        with an Outdoor Camp Oven to serve everyone

                                The Camp Chef crew also hosted a horse shoe 
                                  tournament on our first night out in the dunes 
                                  with an 18” Camp Chef smoke vault up for 
                                  grabs, and we are excited to announce that ATVRiders.com’s 
                                  own Harlen Foley won the tournament, and he 
                                  can’t wait to use the smoke vault once 
                                  it arrives back home in Maryland.
                                We were also joined by the Go Pro guys who 
                                  were demonstrating their new HD Hero 2 cameras. 
                                  Released in November, the HD Hero 2 offers plenty 
                                  of cool features, but the new 11mega-pixel camera 
                                  option and 60 frames per second video in 720P 
                                  mode option really captured our attention, so 
                                  we were eager to put the Hero 2 to the test 
                                  on our ride, and we were pleasantly pleased 
                                  with the image quality produced by such a small 
                                  portable camera.

                                        HD Hero 2, which is one of the best helmet 
                                        cameras on the market & they can be 
                                        mounted almost anywhere on your machine 
                                        or body to provide for some very unique 
                                        recording angles. For more info visit

                                Also, Go Pro announced they are developing 
                                  a Wi-Fi BacPac to view the photos and videos 
                                  on your smart phone while out riding, so you 
                                  can quickly check out your video footage or 
                                  images and even share them with friends online 
                                  before even leaving the trail, which is awesome.
