Epic Ride Could Use Some Education About Fires

For the most part, it was a good episode. It looked like a great off-weekend at Glamis. The dunes were glassy and empty of people. What more could you ask for?
Well, you could ask that they didn't burn any pallets. You know, pallets? The wood skids with the nails that end up in the sand the next day? Yeah, those... the ones getting run over by the poor sap in the sand rail or quad next weekend, putting a hole in his paddle
tire. Or better yet, having some other poor sucker's kid step on it and puncture their foot, putting an end to an otherwise great weekend because you have to take Jr. to the hospital for a shot and some stitches. Thanks, Epic Ride!
Seriously, I've been watching this show lately and have been somewhat impressed. Even with some of the over-board advertising by Honda and the other sponsors who are providing the rides, it's a good concept for a show and I hope it continues.
I just wish they would think about the next group that camps in that spot, because chances are, they're going to have to deal with the nails from that huge bon-fire of pallets Epic Ride left behind.
