My son is in his first season of racing, so I may be misinformed of what might otherwise be considered sandbagging. My son races the 6-8 65 cc class at a local track. They have 3 classes of 65's: 6-8, Beginner and open. They have one racer (good kid, Dad's cool-no issues with attitude or with the family, just to be clear) who is clearly very skilled. He has raced national races such as Loretta Lynns, Mini-o's, etc and generally laps the entire field. He finished 2nd in the 85cc open on a 65. Well, he competes in all 3 classes of 65. Would that be considered sandbagging?: ]]> Racing Discussions Mr. Ted http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30459 Table Mesa Cleanup - Nov. 6th, 2010 http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30458&goto=newpost Tue, 07 Sep 2010 06:14:20 GMT Hello Everyone, this is AZ-Ted, and I ride ATVs (I have 2 Honda Ranchers) as well as my 4x4.

I am writing to let you know of a trail cleanup at Table Mesa on November 6th, 2010. This cleanup is sponsored by the BLM as part of their Public Lands Day event. So far, there are quite a few 4x4 clubs on board as well as the Mountain Bike Assoc. of AZ. It would be great to see some dirt bikes, ATVs, and UTVs out there as well.

As you may know, Table Mesa gets badly abused, and it really needs our help. I am helping coordinate the event, and have lined up sponsors for bottled water and for heavy-duty trash bags. The BLM will bring in the rolloff dumpsters, and I believe they will bring lunch as well (I'll have to verify the lunch, but in past cleanups out there, they have bought a bunch of pizzas).

I will post up more information as it becomes available. ]]> AZ-Ted http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30458 Another good deal http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30457&goto=newpost Tue, 07 Sep 2010 01:41:30 GMT http://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/for/1940059902.html

I ran into this blog while researching solar power for RV's. This guy and his wife have been boondocking for 8 years with out a generator and using only the minimum number of solar panels. He runs TV, microwave, wifes iron, power tools and more using only solar. He doesn't even own a generator.


If your thinking of solar check this guy out. Lots of good info.

Great news!!!
News about the Glamis Sand dunes
Glamis Poised To Get 40,000 Additional Riding Acres

According to the American Motorcyclist Association, the Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area, popularly known as Glamis, could soon see nearly 40,000 acres returned to the OHV (off-highway vehicle) ledger, thanks to a new plan developed by the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM).

"This is great news," says Nick Haris, AMA western states representative. "The groups that want to restrict off-highway riding have gone to court in the past claiming that the Peirson's milk-vetch growing at Glamis is endangered and needs protection, but the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California recently ruled that the plant is being protected appropriately."

In April, the BLM released a draft Recreation Area Management Plan (RAMP) for the 200,000-acre California recreation area.

The Imperial Sand Dunes area ranks as one of the most important public recreation areas nationwide, attracting more than 1.2 million visitors each year. OHV riders, through their purchases of food, fuel and lodging, contribute significantly to the local economy.

The public comment period for the RAMP ended June 23. Federal officials are now reviewing the comments, and the "Preferred Alternative" - that is, the plan that the BLM intends to follow that adds about 40,000 more acres for off-highway riding - is likely to be adopted unless the public-comment process points out a legitimate flaw in the BLM's planning. ]]> Dune Discussions Flattman http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30434 7 Trailer tires / wheels ST225/75r15 Load Range E http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30433&goto=newpost Sat, 04 Sep 2010 15:11:01 GMT I have bitten the bullet and upgraded my tires / wheels on my trailer to 16".
