Elynda comments on WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I'm with Crystal here, I think more of us riders should check out the site more and post something.
Maybe something like "What's for Dinner" ? Where are we heading out to for a great adventure in the wilds of Nevada?
or even 'Hey O'Don" where have you and Julie been hiding? Hoping to see all of you soon.

Hi Everyone, Ken and I are very eager to begin our second year of riding with RATV group. There is some comfort knowing that maybe we won't be the "new kids on the block"! We have many fond memories of high adventure. One of my favorite adventures was the race across the alkali flats near Lovelock Caves. Who would think that a bunch of "older" people would race across that desert risking limb or life, just for the victory of coming in first place. I challenge anyone to a retake, but I'm ditching Ken, the tires, Porter and the food! We can't wait for our first ride. Wanda Brimmer

Hugh's getting the Rhino lubed and checked out. Then we will be ready to hit the trails. Looking forward to seeing all the Renner Riders again at the Feb meeting.

I like the idea, but it sounds comlicated ( as you know I am computer illiterate) So may need some help to understand how to use it. Don

I think all this extra information is great. Only problem for me is my computer is so old it freezes up every time I try to access most of the extras. Hopefully a new computer is in the offing :) Keep up the good work Dave, I enjoy looking on this website to see if anything is new. Just wish there was more interaction, as I'm sure you do too. I like to hear what other people are thinking and their ideas. - Crystal

Elynda comments on LAST RIDE OF 2009 SEASON

I think a poker run would be lots of fun, sure like Dave said "hard work too" but it would be worth it.

I like the idea of two different one day rides , but feel that because we have to go so far that I would much more prefer it just be one day or for the week-end (in one place).

Have we ever been to the Valley of Fire, ( I think it is call that ) down by Las Vegas? Could that work for a week ride?
Or maybe back to Elko area, a lot of us have not been there or a trip into Idaho.....Just some suggestions.

How about face masks with the logo on it, or T-shirts again?

Looks like Hugh and I will have to get a GPS if we plan on leading a ride.

As soon as the snow melts, I'll be ready to hit the trail.

I would have to say My most special ride of all was UTAH. Nothing like thinking you may have to pitch a tent and stay the night in the high mountains of Utah. All because we didn't have a spare tire. I was sure worried that O'Don and his better half Julie had forgotten where we were. They had not forgotten, they just had a flat tire too......

Nothing like spending a week with special friends, lots of beautiful county, more than enough food (and drink).
I loved the Ride down the River (rubber raft) when it was pouring rain and no one could remember their left from their right or could even hear.

Thanks to all of you for the memories. Elynda (we miss you to Chuck)

Marie comments on HELMETS: TO USE OR NOT TO USE, THAT IS THE QUESTION?

Marie — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 02:16:46 +0000

I agree helmuts are a must in the areas we ride in. I got in to a situation where I was on at least a 45 degree slope and nearly went over. I was able to stop and get off and hang onto the quad to keep it from rolling. I wasn't wearing my helmut. It would have been 50 to 60 feet into the ravine. It scared the hell out of me from now on I wear my helmut. Marie didn't know about this as I was out with my prospector buddy.
