Hi fellow kiters!!

Well after a phone call from Chris about the possible use of the dunes in and around Portland (as seen on Getaway last week), I have now just sent an email to their president.

I will get back to you all on what if any regulations must be followed.

Please bear in mind that they do not allow trail bikes and quad bikes, and we might fall into this section considering our size.

Another current rule is that each buggy (motorized), must have a red flag on a 4m mast.
This might be hard for us to do???

Here's the link for those wanting to know more about the Portland Buggy Club:

Well cross your fingers and toes folks, we shall all wait for the reply from President Peter.

Nigel.

Nice work Nigel!

Cris called and had me watch the segment, as he frothed at the mouth over the location! We can all feel like Sand-Yetis for a day :D

Keep us posted on what happens!

Regards,

.Joel
