    Anyone done the beach racing there? does the sand get real loose n deep? would a real powerful road bike with massive knobblies have a good chance?

    The beach cuts up and ruts pretty bad later in the event.
    You need soft long travel suspension its normality a speedway or MX pro wins.
    We ran the motard on mx wheels one year it was way to stiff (i forgot about the suspension)
    I saw a big beemer do alright, but it was fairly dangerous as it was running inside tight lines so theoretically a big bike could do well.
    Body armour is also a must.
