Carving turns in sand; DSR 06

Just in time for the BMWoVC Open House...

In light of the upcoming DS Overnight in the Mojave Desert, a little sand-riding practice seems in order. This will be a local, low mileage ride of half a day or less. Our goal will be improving sand riding skills. You will encounter a wide variety of sand depths, textures, and, well, dampness: There will be bone dry stretches, and you will also get your feet wet.

We will aim to be back at the shop by noon or noon-&-a-half. There will be opportunities to win a bike that day, so you may want to stick around for lunch. For more Open House info, click the link above, then click on the Open House link in the BMW Calendar.

This Skilzdrill is limited to 10 riders. If you intend to come on the Mojave National Preserve ride (DSO 02), put this practice day on your agenda as well!

Huzzah! Another best-laid plan "gang agley" yet survived all the same.
