Ryan and I went to the dunes early in October (2002). This was the second trip with the re-built engine (was 1600cc, now is 1835cc). The first trip was less than inspiring, but Ryan and I had a great time. The engine was AMAZING! We went flying over hills in second gear. It was a lot of fun.
		The only "downer" of the day was that it was cloudy most of the day. However, there was no wind, so it was not cold.

Jumping was a whole new experience with the "new" engine. Almost scarey!

	There were a lot of other sandrails out that day!
Ryan and I went out in May and met two guys from Vancouver. Five months later, they drove uyp beside us and said "Hey, where have you guys been?" We went out and toured around with them a bit. Then one of them banged up his head while doing a jump. He had broken his seat-belt and was going without one! Dumb!
