I havent been there yet, but from what Ive heard the badlands isnt really sand. Its more of a course pea gravel.
Plan and simple is you live in IL you dont get to ride in sand :(

u guys gotta ride on coal banks....up here in pa we dont have sand so coal is good enough....its basically like sand but i think more fun cause u dont gotta run paddles but some of it gets very soft.

hahah glamis sounds awesome.

me and one of my best friends (who rides a 400ex) have decided on a few things. we are goin to St joes and LBL this summer. before we graduate in 2004 we are going to go to Hatfield/McCoy and Coal Creek Mining Facility. and before we die or get to old to ride (whichever comes first :D ), we are gonna go west and hit Little Sahara and Glamis..... sounds like a pretty good riding lineup to me!:devil

I hear there are some decent sand dunes near Canton, MO. I've not been there, but it's supposed to be pretty good.

Canton is right near the border of Illinois/Missouri, about 30 minutes from Quincy, IL and about 2 hours from Springfield, IL

good luck...just be grateful Little Sahara is only 8.5hours from Des Moines instead of a 24hour drive to Glamis from Iowa
