Weekend of April 21-22!
We have two Washington Beaches open for buggies.
North Beach near Copalis and Long Beach Town Center off Sid Snyder approach.
The Long Beach event is in conjunction with the World Kite Museum, show casing Wind Powered vehicles. This is more of a show and tell, ride
demonstrate give tandem rides etc. It is a good opportunity since it is right downtown Long Beach in the same area as the WSIKF.
So come out a join us.

Notice! For the Long Beach event State Parks as asked that we don't start flying until after 10am. This is because it is a clam dig weekend. They are
letting g us out there However. The beach is solid well above the high tide mark so if the wind is moving should be good flying.
So sleep in and come out later. I'll be hauling my stuff out around 9:00.

Several of us stay at the state park with our RV's. Others stay at local motels and B&B. Some go north to Moclips for accommodations. Gerald's
been here several times, ask him where he stayed.

Why YES we are.
At least I will park the home there and buggy to the far reaches of the beach, weather permitting.

Had a great time at Pacific Beach!
Weather cooperated enough for 2 days of buggying. Onshore wind enough to go hard upwind and then a nice run back down the beach. 
Really want to thank Evans for pushing through the red tape to make these events happen. Hopefully the beaches will get opened to buggying without
having a permit. Until then, keep up the great work.
I'll have to check out my couple of pics and post them later.
Thanks to Jeff for flying the Canadian flag for us on July 1st!

You are most welcomed. You will have to thank, BladeRunner for forgetting his flag at NABX.
My wife said some guy was taking a picture of me up on the roof of the RV, I laughed and told her it wasn't me, you were taking a pic of the flag.
Will have to find out when to fly the Aussie flag, Nocando?

everyone left early Sunday. rode up to Bonge twice with the 8m. perfect west wind. the 8 was a bit much at times as the 25mph was hard to get down to
but my smaller kites left earlier in the day.
Had my first great run with the Flexboard up and down the beach with the 10m Century, still shaking from the run as I went from the hard pack up and
over the gunk to the soft sand. lost the board half way BUT LANDED ON MY FEET.
asked Renee if she saw it and she said she just woke up. Yep Ken, it was a good
weekend,
anyone up for Longbeach next weekend and North beach the following weekend?(those are PNWBA events)

Missed it....Plan on Long Beach!!
Sorry I missed ya'll at Ocean Shores...family stuff came up.
There's been some really cool....WIDE beach low tides here at Cranberry Approach....good if the wind goes a bit North (pun intended)...
Few days ago I was jumping a nice tide pool/creek thingy (not sure what the term is)....fun...if you miss you get wet....
C'mon down....maybe you'll witness one of my first "GPS Speedo recorded" speed runs with the Flexboardz....
ROCK ON!!
