Hey all here's some pics of my trip during July 4 week. First time I've ever been to the dunes and definitely won't be the last!

Interested about the paddle tire shootout. I have 9 paddle gliders on an 8" rim. Now I don't know if the size of the tire makes a huge difference but my tire looks pretty big compared to others. Top end performance was great but it did bog a little down low. I was thinking that dropping to a 13 tooth front sprocket would probably change all that. Other than that, the tires worked great.

At the thundermountain hill some guys on dirtbikes were giving me the low-down on how to hill climb. Nice guys giving advice after I told them it was my first time out. I put her in 2nd gear and pulled the whole hill NO problem at all. I never did make it to choke cherry because it was too far away but next time I will (in a month or so). I was told modded banshee's have a hard time with choke cherry so I'm curious to see how my set up would do.



How far is it from Sheridan, Wy? BTW, nice shots taken.

I'm sorry but I have no idea. Just go to mapquest and get directions. Mapquest is GREAT.

Oh and FUEL, thanks for the great products! Fitment and quality was perfect as expected!

Your paddles look to be 21" and a good choice I might add. But I would never consider bolting on my 21" haulers w/o my 13t countersprocket. That would be bog city. Very nice combo with the 13t though....

You will make it up no problem. I'm 275lbs with Gecko tires and I made it.

Looks like you had a great time...welcome to the addiction!

Man, the Choke Cherry story just grows and grows...the only thing I have heard having a hard time is stock 400 based machines...never heard of even a stock 450 based bike having any problems...Just 11 more months and I will know for myself...tick, tick, tick... :D
