Weather wise it was about 80 degrees.
Calm in the mornings and late afternoon to early evening, but it was a bit windy and dusty starting about 2 in the afternoon.

The sand was extremely horse power robbing.
I have rode in the sand since 1977 and I have never seen it this loose and power robbing.
Good thing I ride a bike with a lot of power 8-)

Kayla went over the bars on her Warrior 350 just off a razor back.
Everyone was real worried...
