Hey Gang,

With SOBB just around the corner, I want to announce that I will be providing frequent updates prior to and during SOBB this year.

Go to www.sunsetbeachbumbuggyriders.com and check out the latest posts from this weekend and a new report from Jellis.

I will have some pics later this week and a more detailed account of the beach conditions, among other things.

Come to Buggy Camp, have a blast and give me something to write about. :wee:

Visit www.sunsetbeachbumbuggyriders.com for all the latest updates from the 2011 SOBB event.

If you want to contribute, just catch me at Buggycamp or on the beach. I can post from my phone right from camp or beach.

Cool! I was also planning to post snapshots from the phone on a section of my blog... if I can post there from the field, cool... does that work or do we need to send/funnel stuff through you?

If anyone want to do instant uploads, let me know and I'll give you the email addy for the blog. A quick place to centralize mobile uploads... the pics can just be pulled over to the sobb site. http://sobb2011.blogspot.com/

how come you cropped my buggy out?:dunno:
the home page looks to be a bit bias.
Maybe my new one will look a bit more like those other ones.

dirty off shore, beach in good shape though.

What happened here, looks like a bunch of tabs....lol
Go Coolbreeze!

Ricky has a new sponsor

who got da skirt?

group

more group

So whats the preffered/recommended entry point for the beach, I heard sunset beach entrance is not good? I do have 4wd..

I am gonna be heading out in hour or two, probably be @ beach 10-11am, not knowing the area, hopinh I can have a gameplan before I roll into seaside...

Todd & stetson have my Cell digits, if someone can throw me a txt/email after 8am I can get it enroute. Can't wait to meet you all!

Either sunset or del ray.. Sunset isn't that bad if you say on the path, but it wasa zoo of minivans rejects yesterday...

Del ray has a narrow spot but you should be able to
Make it thru at 10.

Oter option is to park at subset and a call in a ride...

Speed equals distance

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! Wish I could have been there yesterday, and sory I scared the wind away!

Hopefully it returned after I left, someone had to escort Todd home or he would have gotten into trouble.

Updated photos from today on http://sobb2011.blogspot.com/

Nice shipwreck photo!

arc I have a few photo's I can send your way for the blog, they are 2.5-3.5mb each.

Drop me a u2u with email addy, or if I can post to that blog myself...

Invaded!

u2u sent

That looks like macboy in the tandem glider!

Thank you so much for all the kind hospitality and all the wonderful kiting knowledge you all shared with me. I look forward to seeing the PNW folks again and when Todd gets his passport we want to head up to Canada. SUCH a great weekend!!!

who is that hot chick in the profile picture, hope she has a pink skirt

Ricky is drunk again and safely tucked into bed 21h50....:wee:

should be foggy til 11ish... low tide is about 12:50... there is a light NW breeze down the entire coast line... the valley should be hot again, so here's hoping! The jetty sensor is reporting 6 (so take a few off for the beach). Jones is already at 12, so it'll likely be windy here or there but not both.

Any on site reports?

I swear I saw Coyotes in the mist !
:o

Great weekend...got me over the top stoked about buggying and the buggy community. Thanks to all of you who came to SOBB and a special thanks to our American friends for your generosity and hospitality.

I also wanted to say thanks to everyone. You made me feel very welcome. I also appreciate all the offers from people willing to let me get a feel for these larger traction kites so I can make a somewhat informed buying decision. You guys are great, sorry I chased teh wind away on Sunday!

I did, I did Monday - macboy & BR :wee:

Latest updates are up now. Check em out.

Had a great time at SOBB. The Canadians (Kanadians eh' Ricki) are just plain crazy! What can I say, my kind of people!
Much thanks to Eli and Ozone for there support. Also much thanks to Ricki and Deiter for their representation of PL and that other dirty word (Pansh). Also much thanks to Shawn, Jon and many other locals for their part in making it all happen. You are all a great bunch of people!
And lastly, thanks to Josh for all the entertainment at buggy camp on Sunday night.
Bottom line it was great to meet many of you and put faces with some of those on this forum.

PS: I still can't pop a top with a lighter Ricki! What talent you Kanadians have!!

well share the lighter secret trick later dude, nice to meet you

Airin and I are home safe !

Very interested in how the day played out for those in Manzo' and Sunset.

On the road up we stopped at cannon beach . About 15mph on shore and clear . HONEST !
Unfortunately we had to keep moving. Had we known we wouldn't have a boarder wait we could have pulled it off.
