Glamis Easter 2008




Glamis, that big pile of sand located in southern California is full of giant dunes that seem to go on forever. Rising from the desert in graceful curves and ripples, the sand is both inviting and menacing at the same time. The riding area is so big it takes several trips to just see the major points of interest (Oldsmobile Hill, Competition, China Wall, and many others). The small dunes around the edges are regular and predictable, fun riding the whole family can enjoy. The enormous central dunes are also very regular with smooth transitions and eye popping scenery. Normally known for wild times, this Easter was a little more subdued with a lot of families enjoying the holiday weekend.

The coolest event of the weekend was the Tres Regatta, a gathering of mini three wheeler enthusiasts. There was an mx race, drag race, and lots of other events for those in attendance. The mx races were fun to watch, and it looked like the competitors were enjoying the action also. From bone stock Honda seventies to radical customs, the enthusiasm of this group is infectious. This is a must attend event for next year, very unique family fun.
