This years Glamis Trikefest pics

[Dammit!]

Well the turnout sucked this year. We had a whopping SIX trikes show up. We had a great time though. The sand and weather were both excellent. We had enough wind to keep the dunes groomed without being too incredibly annoying at camp.



Group shot from left to right: !, Michelle, Yardbird, TrikeDude, Mymint87 and 3razors (that's a KX500 conversion kids! ).

I've never been dune riding, a lot of sand pits though. Probably nothing like it, looks like a tons of fun. The wind gets pretty fierce at times I imagine, must have to keep your beers covered at camp? Any pics of the 500 conversion?

Cool, looks like a lot of fun! I have to make it down there one of these days.

Man if i lived anywhere near glamis or the Imperial sand area in general i would have been there for sure with a few friends. Glamis looks like so much fun with such vast areas of beautiful sand. Iv'e heard the idiots have been leaving lots of garbage and junk behind though. Any truth to this? Thats the biggest threat to the dunes, and closures. One day i gotta get there.

I arrived to represent ...Knowing KASEY wouldn't be there......I was confident The Mutt would be King of Camp

[mymint87]

WHO invited 3Razors???.....darn...I'm second runner up again

SOMEONE stop him......looks like he's getting ready to leave his mark on My Mutt

How'd this get in here?

thats not true....what would happen is that the dumpsters that are placed at the exit would be overflowing when everyone left on big holiday weekends....your always going to have littlerbugs. but the vast majority of duners are very clean....what the tree huggers did is use the trash overflow problem to there advantage saying that the foxes, coyotes, crows, buzzards are becoming dependent on this overflow and during offseason the starve....so a zero policy has been implemented...instead of huge semi truck style dumpsters placed...they now place the small 5X7 dumpsters with lids...and are stressing a zero tolerance on open /overflowing dumpsters.....now mostly all duners pack it home now

i think ! and 3Razors broke their backs on this ridge

Nice pics guys.How did the Mrs.like the 250sx?

That place is beautiful in the pics!

I've been wanting to do a "California Sand Tour" since I first saw the dunes in magazines back in the early to mid '80s. I will definitely load up the family one day and go....even though I'll probably have to rent an RV having a wife and 5 sons.

In a year or two we'll make an organized 3-wheeler event there if ya'll still do this.

Problem is, it'll have to be more toward or into summer for us since it's so far away from Alabama and we'll have to dedicate a week or two to the big round trip with a few days at Glamis around work/school schedules.

By then, I hope to have found an excellent '86 KX 500 conversion that's been floating around here changing hands real cheap ever since a friend of mine had it professionally done when the KX was new.

Otherwise, I'll convert a newer one myself in the next year or so.....along with building several more 3-wheelers(X's and such) for my young'uns.

It'll be a huge thing for me and mine to be able to go. We've never even seen a set of paddles in real life!
