This past weekend in Glamis, our group decided to take a night ride to olds Saturday night. We had been there for awhile because we were waiting for some friends of ours that we going to meet us there in a truck. The hill was completely dead, maybe a few groups of rzrs here and there but around 11:00 it was completely silent with not a car in sight.
The silence was actually pretty damn cool. We shut off the whips for a minute and had just the fire and the big moon lighting up the place. Our friends finally show up right around 11:30 and we decided we'll stay for maybe 30-45mins more then head back to camp since we were having a good time. Then out of the blue we see a rzr by itself coming down olds. Rzr pulls up to us and decides to offer up some left over fire wood he had.
Guy seemed pretty cool for a second, but then things got weird. Instead of introducing himself after offering firewood he went directly to our sandcars and started to check them out closely with a flashlight. I instantly went up to him to interrupt what he was doing and introduced myself to get his name. We then get to talking about the sandcars and future plans for mine.
He seemed pretty knowledgeable, but then started tweaking out a bit about it and I just got uninterested. He then asks me if any of us were cops. I said "No, why?". His reply, "Good, because I got some coke on my nose". After that, he tried talking to the group and my group just was not having it. The girls were getting freaked out and the dudes started to get into protection mode.
He then goes over to his car and pulls out like (10) 99 bananas shots and offers it up to the group. While that was happening, I decided to check out his car. This dude had a pretty nice Pro R, but had tons of random shit in it. He interrupted me and said "What are you doing!?". I told him, "Just checking out your car like you checked out mine?". I thought to myself..... this dude is probably out here on drugs scavenging the place all night.
After no one took up his 99 bananas shot offer, one of the girls asked my wife if we had medicine for a headache. He over heard and said "I got something for that". The dude pulls out (1) of the (6) bags in his car and then pulls a medicine container out of the bag and tried giving this girl a little baggy for her headache. It looked like a legit baggy that was made by a company but the entire group was like "NO DO NOT TAKE THAT CHIT". The guy kept on trying to offer it.
Immediately after that happened, I told everyone to load up we are leaving. I made sure I was the last one to get into our cars. While everyone was loading up and turning on their cars. The dude went over to both of our cars and started looking super close again and touching my friends intake saying that we need to clean the MAP sensor. I told him thanks and to have a good night and then he asked where we were camping. I told him Wash 6, but we were actually on Gecko. I make sure he walks away, I hop in my car and we leave.
As we were going back, by buddies battery mount snapped off his Gen 3 leaving it stranded as it grounded out the wires and melted them almost causing a fire. We were stuck in the dunes at this point not too far from Gecko. I get him as close as I can but got to a point where I was almost destroying my car trying to get over this one big bowl. I make a call to my buddy with the truck since we finally got cell service and he comes to the rescue. While we wait, my wife says "hey, my phone says we have (2) air tags following us". My buddy confirmed he did have (1) but not (2). We hit the alarm on the second one but could not hear it. I figured it was probably just technology being weird. We could not find a second air tag anywhere. We finally get back to camp at 3:45am, locked up our chit and went to bed. Luckily, all was good and accounted for when the sun came up.
It was such a strange night. Im definitely not superstitious, but it almost felt like the dude gave us some bad juju. We still have never found the second air tag. This dude was up to NO good at all, though. Honestly we think that wasn't his pro r based on his actions and appearance. I am very surprised he didn't try to follow us. Guy would have been in a world of hurt if he did. Who knows... Maybe he was just a cool guy adventuring the dunes all night by himself coked out and offering people 99 bananas shots and girls drugs in small baggies? lol
I've met a lot of people in the dunes. Some strange but mostly all great people, i just don't know about this one, something just was not right. Anyone else here experience something like this out in the dunes? Curious to hear the stories and how ya'll dealt with them.
