I just spent a wonderful morning watching all those video's, and got absolutely nothing done around the house! Thanks , Todd. I needed that! I'm psyched!:tumble:

Many thanks Chris!! If the wind gods are good to us maybe we'll break 60 with it:wee:. If I can find someone to join me perhaps we can get a tandem run at 60+:evil:. Can't wait to get down there:singing:

Sounds good Todd. We'll get some video with both. 60+ here we come:wee:.

Oh man I need to wash some socks!! I need socks.
I still need to finnish the rack for the buggy on the trailer.

Latest Apollo info: They have plenty of rooms left, just got off the phone with them.


Don at powerkiteplace.com being the sponsor of the Wildwood Buggy bash has authorized a sale on HQ kites. Anyone wanting info on this please email him at don@powerkiteplace.com

Thoughts have been kicked around of door prizes. They are in the works but nothing has been finalized. Would everyone like to bring some used but not wanted gear to donate towards a door prize that others would have a chance on? BuggymanGP has stepped forward to donate some and so have others. Anyone else? Saturday night we had planned on a get-together/safety meeting and general bs session of the day’s events.

Any thoughts on what you would like to see happen at this event are more than welcome.

got my room reserved for thur, fri ,sat. I was wondering where are we gonna keep the buggies at night?? carry em in the rooms?

@WG-either that, or chain 'em to your truck... :dunno: i was thinking the same thing but i remember a lot of buggies were left out side last year...

yeah , I can take the wheels off and put em in the truck and lock the buggies to the rack.

Don't know if its possible but it would be cool to see some of the raw video and pics from the past few days of riding. Or even from past BuggyBashes. I know snbdr's wife took a couple hours of video last fall. Maybe a compilation of all the smashes and crashes that were edited out over the years?

@WG,,,,I'll just be locking mine in the back of my truck but last year at least 7-8 buggies were left out under the stairway area and there were no problems. I know Todd has a pic of his Libre in his bed,,,staying warm under the covers

:puzzled: Is that a bad thing?




:duh:


@WG I had mine in the room last year one night and then in the back of a pickup the next night locked up, no problems.
@kteguru I would love to have some of their footage no matter what the quality. I'll work on that for an over the summer project for next fall. Good idea!

haha, i was waiting for that pic to show up... forgot who posted it last year. whose truck had a ton of gear in it, a few buggies and atb's... ? that seemed to be fine all nite...?

Well, well, well, its been a long time since Ive been on here,,, winter was really busy with things. But I am stoaked for the bash, I did manage to hit the beach a few times with Brian and others. The beach in Wildwood Crest, where we will be has grown tremendously since last year. This is going to be good. Just so everyone knows,,,your really not allowed to bring vehicles onto the beach,,,but the riding area is not far from the street. We may be able to bring down one or two vehicles for transporting some gear and such. Ok,,,I just checked also IMPORTANT: Wildwood Crest parking meters are operating May 14th,,,,,so if you do park at a meter from 9am to midnight I think you must pay......The apollo motel has pleanty of offstreet parking so hopefully we will be able to park there. And I think the block that the apollo motel is on may not have alot of meters anyway. we can see when you get there. I have pleanty of videos from past bashes and such if someone will have a laptop computer we could use to show them..

just so you can check out the beach in wildwood crest

roc: im in Delaware, right over the memorial bridge....

weather says might rain some and around 10mph winds for the weekend

WOW door prizes and used gear. This is cool for us low budget guys. Oh and for those who said they will bring used handles and lines for my son and myself to buy, Thanks a lot.

@ Chris, I already had your vote counted after talking with Don. Thanks for your support and looking forward to meeting you.

FIVE DAYS TO GO!

The kid is so psyked. He has the PL bug in the living room and is using it as a chair!! I hope he figures it all out faster than the old man!!

:D It's amazing how fast they learn, when they are really into it. I helped a few teens learn to fly over the winter, soon they were better than me! And with my gear! ha ha It's the best when you watch their face while they are 'getting it'. I prolly get that look when I'm out flying, too.:bouncy:

Yeah he picked up a quad at a club fly last month and just flew it. Never flew one before. I was proud that every one said he was a natural. But annoyed that it was so hard for me to figure out!!
I think I was thinking to much and he just did it. Damned kids and there learning curve!!

That is no curve , more like a launching ramp.
