Sunset Beach, Oregon next week
I am planning to head to Sunset Beach for a couple of days next week - tues & wed june 8 & 9. Would enjoy meeting some other buggy riders, if
anyone has the time off mid-week.
I am fairly new to the kite buggy scene and this will be my first beach experience. Looking forward to some wide open spaces.
I will be heading to southern Oregon later in the week, so could meet up with someone further south, say on Wed, or Thurs.

I'd take him up on that if I were you. If it's nice out right now I have no wind but rainy and nasty then I'm getting 11-24 mph SSW.:flaming:

Jon - what's the best way to find you when I get down there?
windpoacher - I am heading to Lake Klamath for the weekend of 11-13 for a steam boat meet. Is there any kite buggying in the Medford or Lake Klamath
area?

Yikes! I was out on manzanita with the kids... I was letting them fly the sting 1.2 while I was holding onto the bar and them. Wind was wild again,
14/25/34. Saw a kiter from BC get lofted on land when a crazy gust blew by. He's ok, but a crazy experience. Note that at no point in time could I
ever not fly the 1.2 with one hand :D Gotta love that kite!

Just wanted to report back that I had a couple of fun days on the Oregon beaches last week. Thanks to arkay for the folding PL buggy. Sunset beach
on tuesday was pretty light winds, but nice and warm. It was fun to fly with Monty, and Brian, and then later on Sunset Jim popped by to say hi.
Wednesday was rainy so we headed down the coast to Newport. Thursday morning there were still some showers around but the wind was blowing straight
on to the beach. Between the showers and the incoming tide, I squeezed in a couple of hours of excellent buggying on South Beach! Heaps of fun, and
I am looking forward to getting back out to those beaches again, maybe for s.o.b.b.
