Hi all,

Our BDR trip got postponed to the end of March. We got some spots that opened recently, so we have 2-3 spots open to our group.

 

  • This is for INTERMEDIATE to EXPERT riders only.
  • Group will be between 3 and 6 riders. 
  • The most important pre-requisite is a good can-do attitude.

 

Recent riders reported that feared section 1 doesn't have deep sand anymore, and because of recent rains, dust is almost inexistent.

PERFECT RIDING CONDITIONS for sections 1-3. We might not see that in a long time after now.

 

The plan is:

  • Mar. 24, [Friday evening] meet in Yuma
  • Mar. 25, [Saturday] Section 1, hotel in Blythe
  • Mar. 26, [Sunday] Section 2, 3 hotel in Primm
    As we get to Sahara Oasis, depending on how much daylight is available, we either continue to Primm off-road (end of section 3), or we take I-40 East to Needles
  • Mar. 27, [Monday] Partial section 4 to Shoshone and starting to ride back to SD/LA using some segments of LAB2V route.

 

Let me know if you'd like to join.

@PaulyPickles is on it en route to DV for the noob rally. The storm rerouted him in Mojave, section 3 that storm “should” be passed by the time you make it @padu

Section 2 picks up in Blythe and heads Sahara Oasis gas station on the 40

The dirt section west / north west immediately after the Intaglios to the 62 isn’t terribly enjoyable for bigger bikes. I enjoyed the Shoe Tree over Skeleton Pass then down to the 66. There is some sand on Skeleton.

We are expecting and prepared for a lot of sand... although I read some reports on the facebook group that the feared section 1 is very tame now.
