Shannon is turning out to be a pretty awesome buggy'ier. Watch out next year at NABX, she'll be screaming by you yelling "eat my dust".

We had an awesome time riding all night long, temps dropped down to a wonderful low 70'ish and the winds were constant all night until about 4:00 am where I finally crashed out in the motorhome.

The wind continued pretty much all day the next day, we did some buggying and land sailing. The wind ended up dying out around 5:00 pm and I had to pack up to head back into town.

What an incredibly awesome weekend. There's nothing quite like a moonlight pass at 40+ mph across the playa!

Looking forward to next time!

Kent your going to make me blush....;)

But I must say the only reason that Im improving so quickly is only because of all the awesome people that have helped me:smilegrin:

The Weekend was way beyond cool.....and Im going to be doing it again at the end of July...So whoever can make it please do!!

Yeah those foot peg stops are like ninja throwing stars welded on to the ends. Like something from the Ben-Hur chariot race. I wrapped mine with about 20 wraps of electrical tape to cover the knife-like points. I wonder what they were thinking. ...

Yep thats a very colorful way of explaining those killer pegs.

I feel the same way about sand on my big foot buggy. Looking forward to nabx 08.

I think You said it best Susan "If I lived this close to here I wouldnt know how to behave myself"

Im starting to realize what you meant by that...It took awhile to get going as far as doing the buggy thing....But man oh man everytime Im out on it now I can only think to myself what in the hell took me so long??:evil:

and I trully cant wait to be riding beside all of you instead of just behind Sean:D at NABX 08.
