Saw in te paper this morning that the BLM has closed Buttercup/gordonswell/ogilby/and Glamis untell the Government shutdown is over. Is anyone else have word on what they think?
IDK about everyone else but this ant stoppin me from shreadin some sand this weekend. !
I can't figure out why they are closing these areas. The land is still owned and paid for by us........We don't require any services from them.....Never wanted them there in the first place.
So they close it cause they aren't there to babysit us and collect the money?
Glad the MBSAR Run, BORR Race are still on and the MORE PP was able to relocate.
@ crib notes - the MORE Powder Puff is a HUGE charity desert race with all female drivers to raise $ for Susan G Koman / Breast Cancer Research. MORE prepaid all the permits, fees, insurance, cost recovery@
Idk how they can fence off 900,000 acres of sand. and they cant ticket you because ther not in service. so that gives me the ever more reason to go. Hitting of dune season this Saturday !! see u guys in the sand!
i am hearing the same thing about the oregon dunes, the problem up here is most of our parking lots and access roads are gated and i think they will be locked.
i got my maverick about 5 weeks ago,it has spent 3 weeks in the shop,the next weekend was rained out and now this crap.i am going crazy trying to get this thing to the dunes.it only has 9 hours on it and 2 of those were probably idling at the dealer.
Yes All the Oregon Dunes Staging Areas that are Run by the USFS are closed But there are private Camp grounds with dune access. And Most of the riding Areas have at least one or 2 ways to access the sand through a non fenced area. Just no parking lot. So if you got a 4wd truck, air down and head out and park in the sand.
Yeah that's what I was thinking, there's no way that you can physically close down Glamis. It's part of the desert in the Imperial Valley that I ride all the time. It's just open land anybody can drive up to and go for a ride.
The Democrats are such pricks that they are spending more Money and time and Effort to close stuff off to access so we the Minnions think the shut down is a big deal when its not. LOL. There making concessions that are privately owned but located on Fed land Shut down to. Just to be Assholes. No reason other than being Pricks. As far as Im concerned they can shut down forever cause I don't need anything they have. Especially since They cant Touch Glamis. Hehehehe
Its not just a democrac problem- its a progressive ruling class elite problem, and they have invaded both sides of the asile. This entire shovedown was planned and executed to punish those whose who object to his majesty and the ruling class - kick us off our lands, take away our 'handouts', limit us because they are not around to manage us...
I just found out they have my local dune area(Sand Mtn NV) gates locked up. Curious what will happen for Halloween, its the biggest holiday and brings a whole lot of revenue to the local town.
i was thinking the same thing. Halloween is the best of all the good times there. We have a group of about 40 of us going and believe me they are not gonna shut us down. We will camp out by the town of mineral and ride in through the end of the world if we have too. Lets fugure something out.
Years ago the California Democrats borrowed money from the green sticker fund, stole it actually. They ended up raising the fee to pay back what they stole.
Glamis is open.. There are no medical assistance, no bathrooms, no trash service, no permits. There are law enforcement out and about but not issuing tickets for permits cause no one is there to issue them. This coming from Tim in glamis
What a blast. I was at Glamis Friday to Sunday. Friday was really windy but sat and sun were amazing. Their were maybe 50 people camping. Trash cans were their and they were empty. Their was one ranger truck parked on gecko with no one in it. Go have FUN!
That's good news cause last night I heard some bullshit story that this guy went down to Glamis and they had fencing up to block the road entrances. I called Bull shit. Even said there was fencing by the canal off the 78.
I call Bullshit and maybe they put something around the ranger station but they cant fence it all of. That's why I have a 4x4 and a 5th wheel so I can air down and go where ever I damn well want to go. Now if you have a motor home and they make some blockages you might be screwed.
It will be interesting to see if they enforce the permits at Halloween if our gov is still closed. I cant see them letting that many people riding and have fun for free. They will want their money.
Well if they are still not supposed to be working then they wont be out there in any large numbers. Maybe a few of the Big Chiefs running around and that would be it. Funny thing is the House Voted to pay them back pay any how, so that to me says get back to work Bitches and wait till your paycheck comes in even if its delayed those Fuckers will be paid anyways. The Gov employees don't ever hear words like Hey Kid We didn't make much money last week and Im short of cash and I pay ya when I can LOL.:crying:
