Favorite spots...where do YOU off-road?

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

I went down to San Felipe a couple years ago with my truck and my quad. A great scenic trip but it was HOT! Riding the quads on the beach and a small portion of an old Baja 1000 course was pretty fun.

I don't really know but I live really close to Barstow, CA so I will probably frequent Stoddard Wells and Rasor RD. A bunch of the guys are going to Rasor RD this weekend and I am looking forward to it.

A decent mix of sand, trails, hills, and mud. Haven't seen any other VW's out there, but a lot of 4x4's, motorcycles, and ATV's.

Looking for other places close to Tulsa to hit some trails.

hello this thread needs updating and pics too. :lol:
Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

Don't tell Copper, but I'm gonna do some wheeling in his front yard one of these weekends...

I go to Ocotillo (Not Ocotillo Wells aka the dust bowl), and Borrego 95% of the time. Fun ride is down San Felipe Wash from Borrego to Ocotillo. Have actually been told by BLM there is a 15 mph speed limit on these washes, and I would get a ticket if caught again. Serves me right for even stopping.

There is some fun wheeling at Lake Moreno, and Inkopa (Huge quartz vein).
I accidentally Googled my Twitter. (And I liked it)

Now would be a good time...the grass is about dead....still haven't reconnected the sprinklers since I started the fence. :oops:

I was wondering about Lake Morena...been there on a bike.
As far as the baja...let's see....been to Rasor Rd. Drove it for a few hours before losing a balljoint. Night run in Anza-Borrego park and a short drive the next morning in Ocotillo Wells before burning up my clutch. Don't know what I'll break next time, but at least I'll be trailering from now on. :D

I want to go to everywhere! 8) I think the next run will be the trails of Ramona! :twisted:

I don't mean to bore anyone but my favorite place on the planet is Glamis. I couldn't leave it unmetioned. This vid is not of my car but it shows what I like to do most out there and that's run the flatter sections as fast as I can. What fun!!
