Sorry to hear Dunebound and I hope it turns around in the best ways possible for remission.


Still no word from the LS guys?? Maybe the group hug is still going on... ff:

Still would like to be there! Not for the extended "hug" though!!

They Aussies call group hug a "scrum."  Ever notice how Scrum and ______ sound the same ???  Now group hug is an Olympic sport?

Made it back at 4 am this morning. What a long drive back. 2 main words to describe the trip... COLD, WET.

All in all it was great to meet up and ride although I would have liked to do more. I was there early and good thing too. Tues was a nice day and dunes were untouched. I was the only one from the group.  That and Friday were the best days. Other than that... Forget about it. Im from WI and I was even cold. Thanks DS for letting me crash in the warm trailer!  8)

Pics and Vid comming soon!  :-X

I knew ds would house you.  He's a nice guy for another northerner huh? Boltz showed up about 4 or so Sat morning. Fast woke and saw them and let them in the warm toyhauler. Bet boltz and the boy were happy about that! Bolts boy got his dune cherry popped right! Fasts friend with a 2 seater subie turmo rail took him for a ride. Fast and I were running with them. That boy has a grin on his face to say the least. That in itself made the gathering worthwhile. I rode Dougs fish a bit . I usually don't play with others toys since I rarely let others play with mine and I don't feel comfortable really hammering others  toys as I'd like , but Doug wanted me to so.......  I have to say that it handles great.  The fish was very nimble,quick as greased buggy juice,suspension felt well tuned and all in all it is a great buggy that anyone would be proud to own.




Oh yeah, the green looks good also Doug. Between doug,fast and the osha lime green hoodies my wife and I were wearing we could be seen a mile away! LOL!!!!.

          Yea thanks Doug.  Doug offered me a spin in the fish but I declined.  I would have kill myself it that bad azz car of his.  Besides I told him that there were two things a man should not loan out.  One is his ride and the other is his wife.  In that order to.  ;D ;D ;D

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

Well,I had turned the offer down twice already so I figured I'd REALLY insult him if I went 3 times.LOL!!!!!

"two things a man should not loan out.  One is his ride and the other is his wife.  In that order to."

I agree completely.

While that is somewhat true it should be OK to (With permission of course) dance with a mans wife. Just not to screw with her! Same goes for the buggy.

Thanx again Doug for the time you let me take it out. It was a VERY fun dance! (Other than the getting stuck part on a dune top ridge which was totally MY fault! :] )

Hey Spec!!!!!!!!!!!

      Thank's for the sampler box of goodies.  I Think we ate most of the pickles. I got all of the beets before anyone else got down there. Tell the Speconator she did just fine.  Master gave me one full package of zippy's that were left over I had to break into before the week end was over.  We did have a bad oversite for the soup dinner Master and I both forgot to get the sampler box out.  Well it was in the care of Master though.  Mite not been a oversite after all.  ;D ;D Sorry Doug.  The weather really got us screwed up on planning the soup dinner so some of the guys lost out big time on the South West Chicken soup. Even though I had to fix it because my wife could not make it in time it turned out pretty good if I do say so my self.  ;D ;D  Least no one got toemain. And it was just to damm cold and rainy to fix the home made Icecream.

got home myself at 4:30 sunday. my back side is still dragging from that trip. dunebound you were missed!!!! but you missed some real $hitty weather. I have never seen it that cold in oct!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  if it weren't for all the great people and new friends I would have to say I was sorry I went to hang out in the trailer or by the fire the hole time.  fast I have to say I am sorry, I thought you left at the same time master and miss fabbr  ;D left! we all loaded up for a 2 pass run and had a blast until one of us blew a shock. that shock was or is a king and actually came apart. I told him I want to take it apart because I can't believe it came apart like that, I want to see how king builds their air shocks!  either than that 4 or the rails in our group went down by sat night. shane blew a shock, dean bent a spindle, sam threw valve spring retainers and allan lost the out put terminal on his alternator! nuts I pushed your buggy into shanes stall so it wasn't on the rd but by the time I got sam pulled back you had already loaded up and left  :'( I wanted to say hi. I hope we see you down for the next trip which will have to be in may or early june to insure warm weather well maybe not june!  I like cooler weather but damn!!!!!!!!!! I didn't bring coveralls but instead I had to wear a t shirt long sleeve flannel my lined jacket and a coat on top of that plus 2 pairs of socks and my rain suit bottoms ( ya doug my poppa smurf pants      yabetcha! ) and a stalking hat just to keep warm enough for quick u-turn out the gate!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it made it real hard when the little cinnamon bear started scratching at the door.

all in all seeing everyone and that good 2 pass ride around the dunes was great, master/fast damn nice toyhaulers. fast thanks for the ride love that rail, I wish my 3.8 had the acceleration on top end that yours does that was great.  I have dougs go pro memory cards but I am mailing them out tomorrow doug so you will be able to post up this weekend.

hope to see all on the next trip.  ;D ;D  this means you too enemy!! I have a few new dunes I want to show you! ;D ;D ;) ;)
