I'll be camping in center field at Gordons, was wondering if any of you were going to be around Halloween weekend, maybe we can all get a nice group together and ride out to Glamis for the afternoon to watch,maybe stop by the pound and feed the animals through the fence...
Throw some ideas around in this thread and see what we can come up with.
UPDATE 10/09/2009
Legitduner---3 cars 2 quads
motoxno53----3 cars
Punisher550--5 cars,2 SXS's
Hegd---Only if we go slower or have enough quads, SXS's,
Rampster---Maybe?
Your Basic Sandrail--Maybe?
Need to decide time and place.
Time should be 11-12
Place should be either pattons or the starting line of the drags at Gordons.
Post up your preference, confirm your status,or add your name with number/type of vehicles.
I will make final plan update Sunday night and pass around my cell number.
REMEMBER--
This event is a personal and private thing, GlamisDunes.com doesn't endorse this ride or event in any way shape or form.
You go on the ride, you are responsible for yourself!!
If a breakdown occurs we will just take pictures and leave you!!
On a more serious note. I imagine once we get there people will find others, get sidetracked, etcc.. Make sure you have a person lined up to ride back with.
I plan on staying at Gecko, then go straight back the way we came.
I also believe in the interest of all, we should train on out by way of sand hwy..
Just suggestions, voice your opinion..

I've got 3 others. 2 rails and a quad guy, so I imagine the ride there will be pretty chill.

We ran up to Glamis this past weekend from GW. It was a smooth ride! Not sure if we will do it again for Halloween...

Were you with Tom FIsher? You guys cruised past Ed (poundsand) and I twice at the end of Gecko. Tom waved and kept going...... Next time stop by for drinks of your choice....

No problem...... I know the feeling. We finally convinced Old School Ed to buy radios and intercom. He bought them last season and they sat on his pool table. They have now made it into his hauler. We joke that we can sit in his warrior and talk with each other.........

Me and two other cars in my group would be down for that depending on where we camp. I am meeting up with pound sand that weekend, so depending on if my buds want to camp at G or at Ogilby we would make that run with you. I will keep you posted as to where we are going to camp.

If my car is done by then we'll be in. I have two other rails in my group as well. We usually camp in the flats at Gordon's about 45 degrees out from the entrance towards the dunes...

We aren't going til the 6th, so I am out. But I am wondering how this works.
If your on a quad and you take sand highway, do you fill up at the Glamis Beach Store or do you have enough to make it back?

Are you going to visit us this year or did we scare you guys away? I was talking about about how we met you guys and camp watched your toys for you overnight. That was a lucky spot to get stuck in huh?

My group might be in on this, not sure where we're going to camp yet but it will be in the south dunes. When/where we meeting?
Legit Duner
Oct 20 2009, 07:25 AM
Still to be determined as far as when and what time.
I'm thinking we should meet at the Gordons drags or maybe sand highway at center field at Gordons. around 11am.
We will be camping in the far corner at Gordons. When you first come in if you think of Gordons as a baseball field, we will be at left-center field up against the dunes.
Anybody have any other suggestions, ideas?
As far as place and time for the "show and shine", it's kind of on the down-low... Will find out all specifics later this week.

We have made the trip several times and what always amazes me, is the gas mileage that we get. I guess it's because it's a straight shot and that your pretty much "on it" the whole way. Not much stopping and starting.
Our quads (KFX450), normally get really bad gas milage and the tanks are pretty small. However, we make it with extra to run around on, then we top off at the beach store for the ride home.
Be prepared to wait in a long line and pay around $6.00 a gallon at the Beach Store. I have heard that at times they don't have gas. I would imagine that they would have plenty for the big weekend.
My son and I would like to go again this year but it would be nice and safer to go with a group. The only concern I have is keeping up with rails on the straight shot (sand highway).
Any other quad/side by side groups going on the trip?

You do know me! haha you are right tho, that was a lucky spot to get stuck in. You didnt scare us away, you guys are pretty much the only group we've ridden with that rode the hardest and fastest (most fun!) and just that you guys are cool. Ill for sure let you know if we end up going on the 6th or not, either on here or gw.com

I did gordons to glamis once in my samurai. we drove right next to the canal white knuckled 5th gear (like 40 mph) but the sumbitsh kept bucking and I swore we were gonna end up in the canal. I would recommend not taking canal road. really boring, except when youre in a samurai! but it was cool to at least say I did it once!
