Man, I tell ya... too bad Oregon is not closer! We rode for 5 days and covered about 30% of the available dunes. It was incredible! We hardly ran into anyone. I took pix of the trails thru the trees but only a helmet cam would do it justice. It's like riding mountain trails in the Sierras but w/o all the dust and running at break-neck speeds!
Sand paddles are optional until you get to Winchester Bay. I am told the dunes there are VERY tall with razorbacks and bowls so deep some folks can't get out!
Riding on the beach was cool, but how long can you drag race... so back to the dunes!
Horsefall @ Oregon Dunes gets a big 5 out of 5 stars from us! A big THANKS to DodgerBlu for lending my wife his 500 Scrambler... now I need to get her one!

I posted some of the Oregon Dunes Pix here.

We will definatly be going back very soon!

Nice pics, thanks for sharing....It's been a looooong time since I've been to the Oregon Dunes. I'm going to have to plan a trip there soon.

Thanks for the report. We have made the trip from AZ to Oregon twice, getting ready to plan our 3rd trip for next year. This gets me even more excited.

I asked him to meet me somewhere around Moab or in New Mexico and you'd thought I asked him to meet me halfway across the country.

I remember when Pismo used to look like that, riding around all the grassy knowles and such, are there many two wheelers there?

I was surprised at the number or 2 wheelers AND a few ATC's as well. There was a group of about 4 or 5 bikes that were blazing around!
