We got a new beast to tow with!

The wife wanted her own Suburban so....

When are we going to do this again?

A little fork in South SLC

I was jealous that everyone went out for a nice mountain ride so I pushed the Big Red off the trailer this evening, grabbed some water and a cell phone, and headed up to territory previously undiscovered by me.   I have become a complete addict to this ATV stuff, I think I could spend all day out riding.  This evening the temperature was probably in the mid 80s with a hint of a breeze and a clear and clean sky.  I spent about 1.5 hours riding but it felt like minutes.  Here's a little of what I saw.

Father and Sons (White Sands)

We found a great little spot for the boys to do they first real dune riding, they did awesome.  It was great riding weather in the early morning (we were up at the backside crack of dawn) and if you kept moving the bugs had a hard time landing on you.  Really we had pretty much the entire dunes to ourselves and had we slept better we might have stayed longer.  All in all it was great.  Oh we say a fox and two jack rabbits, and caught a lizard.

Good times!

This is how all our Quad trips begin.

We started with a dusk ride and we rode until it was getting to dark for us to ride (no working lights on any of our quads)

We caught a lizard during the dusk ride, and after dinner we went exploring in the dark.  The boys did a little dune jumping.

Next day started early.  After bacon and eggs we hit the trails and rode some places I have never been to before.  The we hit the dunes.

03 July 2010 Little Sahara Ride

One of the best rides of the year, so far.  Just the three of us made it out on this spur-of-the-moment ride.  Dan pretty much put this ride together at about 10:30pm the night before and I am so glad he did.  It was my first time taking the 2006 Honda TRX 450R out to the dunes, it performed better than I expected and took me absolutely everywhere I wanted to go.  We also had a Predator and KFX700 out all performed wonderfully.  We were surprised at the wonderful weather (probably mid 70s) and how empty the park was.  It was perfect!!!!

I want to go again soon!
