So we're renting 6 dirtbikes this weekend out in Vegas

    Re: So we're renting 6 dirtbikes this weekend out in Vegas

    Yoooo....first time in the dunes and they are friggen sweet!



    Surely boring after the 3rd ride, but def worth riding in your lifetime! And the Nellis dunes, although tiny, are only a 35 min drive from the strip!

    710 miles!!!

    that might be a bit much...still sounds awesome though!!

    more on the dunes - to be honest, it's pretty plain stuff. Soft, smooth, not very technical. Good for wot roosts/drifting/jumps. Everyone told me I had to get a paddle tire or the world would implode, but it just felt like riding a fresh powder new england snow. Paddle tire helps you go fast, but not necessary to screw around; especially if you only do it 1-2x/year

    also - the Nellis "dunes" is TINY...despite what the name implies...mostly mix of rocks/hills

    How about...

    ...Friday, Feb 27th for dirt, then you guys can go fool around for a street rides on Sat, fly out Sun?

    I can likely get fri/sat off...so I can head up to Vegas thursday the 26th after work, roll in around midnight, gamble a couple hours/sleep, then we can ride dirt alllllll day Friday (or just the AM if you guys get tired quickly)...then you guys can head off on street bikes Friday evening/Sat, then head back home on Sunday

    since it's so far out, a room @ the Bellagio w' my mlife account (player's club) is only $170 for the night + $22.50 resort fees...hmmm...

    just booked the conference!

    plan is to fly in Sat Feb 21 in and around 1-4pm. Conference is really Monday to Wednesday but Sunday is a good to meet people. I will have Thursday Feb 26, to Sat. to play around. I'll planning to stay at the MGM for the conference. If it makes sense I can extend the stay there and get 2 queens at Gov/Ed rate of around $95.



    So you get there Thursday night. maybe a day trip of roads on Thursday, Dirt Friday, puts around Sat. and fly home Sunday.. Any chance to Dirt Thursday or Sat. this would lend to a nice 2 day of touring.

    SWEET!!!

    let's do this!!! Joel - you in??

    I'm already off 27th/28th/29th - so dirt Friday or Saturday definitely works better for me...I work Thursday - but can drive over right after work and arrive late so we can get a good start Friday to do either

    Let's start some planning - what do you want to see touring wise, and dirt wise?

    AWESOME!

    If I'm riding street than I'm bringing my Scorpion jacket, Macna pants and bringing my Arai helmet to keep me dry. Maybe my heated gear as well. will seen when the time is closer as to what the temps will be. Last year was 75-90 well except for the GC when it was snowing.

    typically a xl jacked and a medium helmet. debating if I bring my entire dirt setup?



    just so you know I am no motocross/hare scramble expert.

    full dirt gear will be a whole extra piece of luggage...with the hardest things to transport being boots and helmet

    so I recommend that you leave the bulk items at home, and just pack the light stuff: gloves, pants, jersey, & knee guards if you have them. I already have your chest/elbow/shoulder protection to wear under the jersey, so I just need to find a medium helmet and figure out something for the feet

    What kind of dirt boot do you ride with (brand?), and what size?

    and don't worry about pace...despite what my s/n suggests, I am still a slow noob who just likes to be out on a dirtbike

    Holy crap it's January...this trip is coming up QUICK!

    did you decide on downtown Vegas lodging for Friday night?

    you rolling with a crew or is it just you and I? If crew - I'll meet you Saturday morning...if just you, let's booze/boobs/gamble friday!

    I'm not going to be able to swing this, got some other plans for later in he year that will consume most of my vacation time. Hope you guys have fun though.

    @ tl - no worries...I am always riding and heading to Vegas...I will be ready when you are! The only thing changing is the bikes...constantly moving one or anothwr, so you will likely be on a
    Yz250

    @ Gino - Picked up this spare helmet at the local moto gear supply co - new HJC for $60, medium



    You can use it in Vegas...once I score some boots it will complete a full second set for noobies/friends

    well on planning things for the conference I failed to realize the conference expanded and now extends to Thursday. It looks like local riding and not a 2 day road trip to the pacific coast. Might just have to pick up a trumpet Tiger and check out some Death Valley adventures

    no worries man, if pacific coast is this trip, skip dirt for now...it just gives you an excuse to come back to ride dirt next time

    I'm ready either way!
