I might go to the south water tower access. There will most likely be too many speed bumps in the kite beach area. With low tide at
1:30pm, we will lose the beach before we lose the people.

No room to buggy...?
Okay... I'm curious...
If it's crowded with people this time of year and you could not buggy, why is isn't event held earlier in cooler/off-season.. or is this just for
some areas of the island...?....:puzzled:

It's Sunday afternoon and mid 80's. the south 2 miles of the beach will have fewer bodies. JIBE starts tomorrow, a week day, when there will be few
people on the beach. We will set up on kite beach and can go either N or S where there will be long stretches of empty. Our riding area is about 3mi.
long hard pack like concrete. Tires, even barrows, do not leave grooves. Compared to Nahant and Pine Point, we're riding in shorts and tees. We ride
into the tide pools to cool off.

A few of us did find some beach real estate on the north side of the tide marker that was sparsely populated enough to ride buggies and a blokart in
very light winds. Nice direction so I could keep moving with my 4.5 m g-kitr ( single skin) which is pretty much straight off the sewing machine. Was
probably the least wind I've ever ridden buggy but I'm not complaining. It did pick up a bit later. So I'd say JIBE Day -1 was a success.
