If any EX-Riders are going out this weekend look me up. We are going out in a couple of motorhomes and will hopefully be at the end of Gecko road at the roadrunner campground. Look for this 400

Going thanksgiving weekend for sure.....
i'm not exactly sure if we are goin to go this weekend, cuz i am not really trusting my bike for a dune trip cuz i just put a new top end in it and a pipe and it isn't really dialed in perfectly, if i dial it in and just get off my ***** and figure out the perfect jetting for it then it will look like a perfect dune trip to buttercup, are u going to buttercup or glammis, i haven't been to glammis yet but could show you guys around buttercup, very fun area, but glammis is called the "sand mecca of the world" for a reason, there's more large dunes there and bigger jumps but there is better all around fun and trail riding at buttercup, i will be planning a trip to glammis this year sometime, but not this weekend, i would want to go somewere i know pretty well while i am still dialing and playing with jetting on my bike, but lemme know, if you go to buttercup we normally park at the end of the camp area, it kinda looks like a little cold-a-sack type thing, and you should see a 99' f-150 short bed, short cab, it is white, and my dad's friend has a 2000' chevy 2500 with a lift and nice rims, the chevy is black, and we have just a regular open 15 ft trailer, i myself have a 1991 trx250x and my dad has a 99' warrior that is black and yellow, my dad's friend with the black chevy would probably have one or 2 86' atc350x's on the same style trailer we have, 15 ft open trailer, and mike might show up with his old motorhome that says Jamee on the side, mike in his motorhome will be pulling a enclosed trailer with a yellow sand rail a few 350 3 wheelers and prob a warrior, here, i'll find some picks of what our camp looks like for ya
heres the old motorhome, on the side it says Jamee, mike drives it
here's mine and my dad's bikes
this is one hard ***** rail we saw last time we were out, he had way too much power, that guy would fly by banshee's as if they were in 1st gear and then he would wheelie all the way down the hill:D ;) :eek:
CHAUNCY
11-11-2002, 01:17 PM
man thats a nice rail
ya i know, he had the nicest suspension, when he hit the whoops at the bottom he was prob doing about 50 like it was a cake walk, then by the top of the hill i'd say he was doing a good 65 mph, so he would accellerate up the hill, and then wheelie down, and then he would jump the thing like 10 ft on small dunes

me and my friends want to go soooooo bad. we live in ny and were planing to go this summer vacation but maybe that will be saved for senior year. I heard there are some sick dunes in ohio so maybe there cause it is a little closer, but glamis is the king of them all.:D
whatever you do don't go durring summer, unless u wanna have a sweat fest, yuma if freekin 110-117 deg durring the summer, and there is no shade in the dunes cuz there is soo little vegitation and soo little stores around, so go durring winter when it is like 70 deg outside, then it is perfectly nice, but chilly at night

Summer is actually the best time to go. The key is to sleep all day and ride at night. During the summer the sand is always perfect....a bit soft....but always perfect.

Yeah only if you have an RV with AC to kick it in during the day. I still say the best time to go is at the end of the season when it's starting to get hot but not that bad. It's empty out there and very fun to ride..... AT night it's pretty dead at comp but it's funner to ride... Holiday weekends are more for parting in my opinion...
yes, holliday weekends are the worst time to go unless you plan on getting wasted and watching a whole bunch of people run in to each other cuz there is like 20 people on every sand dune, and that's no joke, i'll find a pic of glammis on a busy weekend for ya guys, but there is some cool and funny things to see on busy weekends, like people in trucks tryin to go up the hills and people throw in a little gas each person, pour a crap load of it in the sand down a straight line, i mean a lot of gas, enough to stay lit for like 10-15 min, and they light it in a straight line and drag race down the sides of it, lol, one guy on a 250r was tryin to show off and spray sand and go throught the flames and caught his motor on fire, damn that was patheticly funny, but that's the kinda stuff you see all weekend, is drunk guys flyin all over the place

I have been going to Glamis since 1979 (before there was such thing as a "quad") I have seen many changes over the years. It has just been here in the last 3-4 years that the crowds are getting huge.
Personally I love to go on BIG weekends, last year I stayed for 10 days over T-giving. I generally do not dune in the northern dunes much..I perfer the riding near China Wall and Lizard Hill the dunes are bigger and even on BIG weekends there are very few people down that way.
Don't get me wrong.....On Saturdays I follow the long time Daily Glamis Ritual: Get up, eat, gas up, go for a short ride, hit Olds and watch the parade, go to Boardmanville.....drink a few cold ones and down a burger and fries, go for a short ride, hit the sand drags and watch the tits go by, go back to camp, eat dinner, put some baby powder on my *****, ride to Comp and watch the parades for a bit, go back to camp load up the cooler, toss it into the back of the superduty, air down, drive back to Comp, build a fire, drink and mingle, drive back to camp, build a fire, drink, drink, drink, bullschit, drink, passout then wake up face down in the sand, ride to the aquaduct and rinse off.....then try to recover from another Glorious Glamis Saturday.

Baby powder on the *****?
Man, you gott's try GoldBond! It's definately cures the Swamp *****! It tingles too. My friends and I call it "Thousand Elves". It feels like a thousand elves tickling your sack. Did you say you drink MGD? Bottles or cans Fokker?;)
oldnumberseven
11-13-2002, 10:29 PM
I'll have to try the goldbond. The thousand elves thing reminds me a a few girls I used to hang out with......(It's a great thing having more than one tickle yer sack.....if ya know what I mean.:D) You know what else works for Monkeybutt.......Vagisil!..........NO SCHIT! Apply a little before hitting the pillow.....you'll be ready to go the next morning.
Chauncy......On Saturdays I don't go through much gas.....in fact I generally run pump gas on Saturdays......Too much to see to get any real riding in.

Should be!:D
you hit it right on target old, except we never have the luxury of bathing all weekend or having burger and fries, and i don't apply anytyhing to my fanny cuz i am one of those 15 year old's that rides all day long without a sore fanny, then do it again the next day, and we normally stop riding at 4 in the morning when the shee's stop dragging all over, and we hit the sack and wake up at 8 in the morning then ride all day, take a small nap in the middle of the day, fill the bikes up, go for about 3 hours at a time untill a 20 min break, and do that till 4 in the morning, then the next morning we ride for about 2 hours and are so tired cuz we get about 8 hours of sleep all weekend and about 26 hours on each quad, so we are pretty tired and we go home on sunday, cuz we get there sat night and do the 4 in the morn thing untill sunday, then we go home, don't bother cleaning up, jus put it in the garage, shower and sleep all day till dinner, and that is the sand dune routine, i just left out the tits and drinking and fun parts, that's too much to type
