Haha my bad... i dunno how i missed the post about the reservations...

So what are most of you doing? Driving up friday afternoon/evening and staying friday night of the beach, then saturday is the run, staying saturday night on the beach, then do some wheelin sunday morning and head out sunday afternoon?

 

Is there a formal "run" or just free-for-all wheeling on the dunes? I was thinking I may rent a Honda ATV up there for a day.

 

Well when i was with the Nissan group previously... everybody met up at the beach camp (some people stayed in the camp ground)... Then we all drove out and just played on the dunes, and it was kinda free-for-all, people would get tired of a dune and leave and everybody would follow, then we ended up splitting into two groups at one point, then joined again...

Later in the day though, we met up as one group and went and did some trails though... There are some good trails up there... Haha actually we went on this one that the trail was public land, but had private land on either sides and apparently the residents were growing weed back there because we were greeted by a lady standing up in the back of a jeep with a shotgun (a guy driving, we are guessing her husband) so we promptly turned around and booked it outa there... Haha kinda funny watching 20 Xterras bookin it outa the woods away from a crazy jeep lady... We later talked to the forestry people out there, and found out it isnt the first time its happened...

Ill find out what the trails we ran were, and post em up here, maybe you guys would wanna run some trails up there?

 

Hey guys this was previously Dirty_Yota, a friend of Morphias's, my other account got wacked out some how, lol. But ya include me also, and need to know where to book my spot, either the campground or the beach?

 

the beach if you want to camp with the rest of us. use the link i provided a few posts back.

 

Woo Hoo, made reservations at Oceano Dunes SVRA, CA
Just making sure this is the right place.

 

What about communications? Does everybody have CB, or will FRS do the trick?

 

Everyone should really have a CB, they are quite inexpesive, just get a small hand held if your broke.

 

yes.
if you've been looking for an excuse to get cb, let this be it.
the first pismo 4rj i went to i had FRS, and that was just lame when most people had cb. oceano dunes is a big place and it can be easy to get lost, so being in touch by cb really helps out there.

 

Booking done! Now just need to get my spacer lift done...ahhem...guys...need your help in a few weeks to get this done...

Looking forward to my first trip to Pismo.Will be great to see some of the faces from Anza Borrego and Death Valley trips and to meetup with those I have not yet met.

Cheers
Mark

 

Would it be ok to cross post this thread at T4R? If not, that's cool, I'll pm some people individually.

 

The more the merrier (IMHO)...

 

sure, why not.
go ahead.

 

Hey guys, my rack is almost finished, and i may get a cb by then, otherwise ill have an frs, and if none, ill just take the CB from by boat, lol.

 

GOT an important question, as far as the "RUN" are people with 2wd usually ok for the trails out there...???

-ahhhh 4wd limiteds are expensive

 

Well, on the 1st Pismo 4RJ trip there were a few 2wds. They made it down the beach to the campsite and then stayed there the rest of the weekend until the were pushed out to leave. 2wd isn't worth trying in the dunes where it is dry and soft, unless you have a set of paddle tires and the power to spin them. I'd say you'll be riding with others most of the time.

Note: a 2wd from the 1st trip has since converted and could be on the Con as I type.

smoka,
read over the PISMO 4RJ threads from last year and 2003. you'll find people talking about 2wds out there.

the short of it is: yes 2wds can have fun out there (airing down low and keeping momentum are especially key in 2wd), but expect to get stuck a few times.

 

dude, take out your 2wd, follow everyone else and see how you do! You'll have a great time even if we are pulling out out 20 times.
I was 2WD and went harder than a lot of the guys w/4WD. Its all about momentum

thanks Casey, i was thinking the same thing...NICE pictures, i checked those out...
How much did your brush guard bumper cost you?
