I have heard somewhere that folks are protesting and not buying THOR gear any longer because they refuse to support the open riding areas and wont really make an effort to keep those areas open.
Anyone else heard this? I would like a little verification.

Did you check it out on Glamisdunes.com? Maybe they know. I haven't heard but would be more than happy to boycott them if its true. :)

If its true I would boycott them too.
I didnt buy Thor gear, because someone told me it was Gay,gay,gay.... I ended up buying better stuff :D
Btw...I did buy my kids Thor goggles, because they were the cheapest ones they had in stock.

Hey Thor,

We camp about 1 mile east of the ranger station between Split Mountain Road and the Desert Ironwoods Motel. I am on a CR500 and pops is on a CR250. We will have about 4-8 motorhomes and trailers in our group. Come by and say hi.
Where will you be?
