The Blacks Enjoy Their Polaris RZR

The Lost Lizard Poker Run @ Ocotillo Wells
By Dave Blancett, Polaris RZR Owner The Lost Lizard Poker Run @ Ocotillo Wells in mid-October offered another opportunity to check out the RZR’s capabilities, to further insinuate it as a permanent member of the off-road stable, and to benefit the San Diego Off Road Coalition. Our last trip to Ocotillo Wells had the sand […]
Dave Blancett Falls Hook, Line and Sinker for New RZR
by Dave Blancett, Polaris RZR Owner There was a time when I regarded side-by-sides with disdain.

First Impressions of the Can-Am Commander in the Dunes
By Tim Berendes, SDR Motorsports So, took the Can-Am Commander out this weekend and put her through just over 100 miles of break in, which basically means I drove the piss out of it to see what I could break. First off the bad: The cup holders are above the engine compartment and it made […]
Safety Tips for the Imperial Sand Dunes
Halloween weekend will be the first trip of the season for many visitors, and the dunes will be much different than they were in the spring. As a result of shifting prevailing winds seen over the summer, razorbacks and witches eyes are more common. The hot summer weather leaves less moisture in the sand resulting […]
