There are a lot of people in southern California who own quads or dirtbikes and go riding on the weekends. This is the time of the year where you start to see more trailers and motorhomes heading out to their destinations on the freeways. Our family also does this and last weekend we started preparing our motorhome to go to Dumont Dunes. I always get excited when fall comes. We cannot go to the desert in the summer because it gets way too hot. So we usually never get to ride for about six months out of the year.
We also did a little bit of maintenance work to our quads like changing the oil and those sort of things. Every year there are more and more people who go to Dumont. Sometimes it gets too crowded and it might not even be a holiday weekend. On the really big holiday weekends like presidents day or thanksgiving, motorhomes and trailers seem to be parked bumper to bumper and there are thousands of people there. That's why I don't like going on those weekends. For a lot of people including us, this is a family outing and my aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents also go camping with us. This is rapidly becoming part of southern California's culture.

I can relate to this post. My dad was always big on taking the family out to the desert to go off roading. I usually went down to Glamis, but lately we stopped going there and have been heading out to the high desert. Glamis got way to over crowded in the last four or five years and we have a spot in the high desert that only has a few people there everytime we go. Maintaining a quad can be quit difficult, but it is always worth it in the end.
