Kicking up a little sand: Desert Racing!

april13-14racing-150x150 Kicking up a little sand: Desert Racing!Over the Semana Santa weekend, one of the highlights locally is a sandy race-dragging style run up the Loma (hill) near Cholla Bay. In case you didn’t catch this, or get your fill of a sand-filled landscape hovering over Puerto Peñasco, you’re in luck…next week, April 13th & 14th folks from the Arizona Desert Racing Association will be holding the “Thunder on the Beach 150” right here in Rocky Point.  This 2 day event, with sign up and a riders meeting on Friday the 13th and racing on Saturday, will include a 25 loop course through the desert behind the area of Sandy Beach.

Here’s a teaser to show us what the course will include: Thunder on the Beach 150  – Rocky Point Teaser
