Headed down to play in the sand for a few days. Had a great trip other then the hurricane that blew thru on Sat night. Glad I wasn't in a tent. It was blowing so hard we had to put the satelite dish down on the trailer for a bit. Missed some of the Utah game.:angryfire:

I only have a small amount of video- well you will understand why after watching.

It snapped the camera right off my helmet.

Here is a longer but pretty boring video of the white wash area. I did not edit any of it. We were not able to get any video of the big dunes due to my nice face plant.

What a great place to camp and ride! The crash video is excellent but for a bit there I had to wonder if you were ok :eek2:

Thanks for the report :2thumbs:

I was lucky it did nothing to the bike or me. I ducked and rolled. I thought I touched the front brake but I think the wheel just shot sideways. What was scary is how fast it can go south. I was really luck I was hardly even moving. Other then that had a great weekend. Sand is a lot of fun.

I can't beleive you put you hands out. I never do that. I always ride the bike down or take the hit with my shoulders. Too many wrists broken. Looks like you guys had fun. I love the logandale area here and it looks to be pretty similiar to what you guys were riding.
