2011 BansheeHQ Ride - Little Sahara, OK


Recommended Posts

I hate it for you guys that the weather is being such a little bitch about it and messing with the weekend. Like I've said, never been on sand before, buy I imagine it just packs the shit out of it. Just for future reference, after a rain(I know It depends on how much rain fell), but in general, how long does it take the dunes to be back to normal. I'm sure wind and sun lessen the time tremendously, but just on average.

 

give it a couple hours and some wind and it starts to dry out. I am headed out there now!

1-2" of rain expected Saturday man. Not sure it's gonna be worth the drive.

 

I know that part sucks.. I'm coming tho. I plan to be there bright (or maybe not so bright) and early. Hope to get some window of time to ride. I looked online, but couldn't find many details. Do you know what time it is expected to rain? Is Wet sand any fun to ride on?

Wes, how can you begin to say passion even competed when they didnt bring a bike that ran long enuff to make a pass before the tranny locked up?? Mat drove 21 hrs and got there wednesday and Gary and Jim roll up friday and the tranny locks up in their bike before it can make a pass. Either way it wouldnt have been much of a race. Oh and I forgot to mention that Shearer beat down all the Passion bikes this weekend soooooo Im trying to figure out how you're thinking what they brought wouldve beat shearers bikes.

Had a blast racing you guys!!!! This was my first trip to LS and it was awesome. Took a little bit to dial in my R1, but when I got it right, it ran as good as it does at home I think.

 

Great to meet the folks I did. Thanks!

Need to get some info right jims bike the tranny locked up. Gary bike had clutch issues and they fixed that Saturday morning and the monsoon came down.

I'm not saying anyone would have won but sure can't say blah blah won when there wasn't even a race. I'm editing videos now Sorry to say but the orange frame 10mm dm shearers is getting beat By who not sure as of yet but videos are processing and then u can watch urself

if you are so sure they got beat, hot rod, i would have thought you would have remembered by who because even i know? :shrugani:

 

 

My opinion is passion and sniper's showing was less than spectacular. Its not like this was a last minute decision.

There was noone out there or any bike that didn't lose a race and there were hundreds of people there and easily 100 drag bikes racing. If you never lost a race then you didn't go out.

If anyone wanted to race Matt Shearer he was there from 11:30am till it got dark on friday and had a 9 foot tall Red Truck that said Shearer on the back. I had a blast hanging out with him and his crew was great. I have no complaints about racing on friday , we had a blast racing friday and WOW there was a lot of awesome bikes.

Fucking stupid weather. That kind of sidelined all the award stuff and the raffle. It was just too much to contend with the wind. We will still be doing the raffle but it will be open to everyone on the site and run online instead of in person.

 

Thanks to everyone who came out! I met some new guys and it was fun kickin it. :cheers:
