stu Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 As alot of you probably know i live in the UK and so have never been to any sand dunes let alone ridden any. Me and a mate are hopefully going to visit lefty for a few days sometime between may and august 2004 before I start college in september. Are any HQ members up for a big meet at some dunes down in AZ? Ill have to let everyone here choose exectly where as i have no knowledge of the dunes!! Hopefully this will work and everyone will have a sweet time chillin in the dunes! stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indubitably Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Those months are extremely hot and the only dune riding you will probably be able to do is at night. I'm up for it. Hopefully we can get a few more people than we did at our last dune trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton eyed Joe Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Like I told the guys that went this time, if business has been good, and the Banshee is running and I can get 3-4 days off I'm there. I would hope it would be later in the year however. That desert gets mighty hot in the summer months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNewGuy Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 man, it's one thing to come to the US and ride on the dunes...but its a complete different thing to ride with Lefty! haha...he'll change the way you look at us yankees! i agree w/ it being hella hot...start training by wearing your riding gear in a sauna so you can be somewhat used to the heat... glad to hear you're gonna come ride Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WyoDuner Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 May to August... That's the PERFECT time to go to St. Anthony Dunes in Idaho. Biggest dunes you'll find in this country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KABanshee Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 May to August... That's the PERFECT time to go to St. Anthony Dunes in Idaho. Biggest dunes you'll find in this country. Hey Wyoduner, so far about 25 of us from Sand Lake Duners as well as family and friends have made reservations at the Desert Oasis campgrounds for the 1st week of May 1-7th. I foresee an additional 10-15 by the time the date arrives. If you are open that weekend you should be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincster Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 May is wayyyyyy tooooo hot dude. I live in Phoenix Az and by May, it is hitting 100 during the daytime. No way would I go to the dunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton eyed Joe Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 May to August... That's the PERFECT time to go to St. Anthony Dunes in Idaho. Biggest dunes you'll find in this country. St. Anthonys is my favorite spot to kind of get away from the crowds, and slide some dune faces. The razor backs are perfect for whipping the ass end around for a good picture. Hope to get out there this year more than once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
