Above are some pictures from the MLK dune cleanup trip. It looks like the club had a good turnout, and Don and Shirley had some good luck at the raffle wining $100 cash and a Gilmore gift certificate.

Don and Shirley will once again spend a week at the dunes for Presi-dents Day, allowing for back to back weekends for the rest of us. They will arrive on Thursday Febru-ary 11th and stay through Monday

the 22nd, so make your plans to join in on this big trip.

At the January meeting all of the current officers and board members agreed to continue on for another year. Anyone who wants to join in and help plan events is always wel-come.

Brianna Cole just got her learner’s permit, so watch out next time you’re in Phelan.

After New Years, and discussing some options with John, Dean, Scott, and the other guys at the Elevator shop, we decided that we didn’t really have a project for a few weeks, so we decided to change my rear shock mounts. This allowed for taking full advantage of my new shocks which are longer than the ones the car was built with, and allowed for some extra bracing and a slight design change. It is a first step toward a four seater, but I didn’t let them cut the car in half...yet. Below are some pictures of the project up through about a week before the Presidents day trip. Thanks again to my Dad, Dean, Scott, John and the guys for all their help. -P.J.

This month we would like to thank Steve Tharp for sending in his newspaper article and taking MLK trip pictures and Pete Hagen for sending in pictures as well. Next month we should have lots of great articles about the Presidents week trip, and hopefully we’ll get enough content to fill the newsletter back to six pages. We happily put it together, but we can’t write it all. I don’t want to have to cut my car apart for more article content. - P.J. and Melissa Kastle

As with any organization there are guidelines we operate within. Please read and abide by the following: 1. NO FIREWORKS ALLOWED WITHIN CAMP BOUNDRIES 2. DOGS MUST BE KEPT UNDER CONTROL AT ALL TIMES (BLM law) 3. ON A RIDE, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE VEHICLE AHEAD OF YOU AND THE VEHICLE BEHIND

YOU. If they stop, you stop and wait for the group to return to you. This prevents separation and in this manner we never leave a member in the dunes. Remember, it’s easier to find you if you stay still: “a moving target is harder to hit”

4. PLEASE OBSERVE THE “RIDE RATINGS” ON THE CLUB BOARD AND SELECT THOSE RIDES YOU WISH TO PARTICIPATE IN. If you wish to lead a ride, put the time and type of ride you want to lead on the board and then stick to that time. No passing on rides (except #6 rides). You can always change your place in line at a break or if you are waved on by the driver ahead of you.

5. REMEMBER, WE ARE A GROUP OF FRIENDS who share a common interest in riding in the desert. Always keep in mind how your actions affect the other members.
