9th Annual Pismo Jamboree (Sept. 24, 25th, 2011)

blue moon you say .................

 

Cris! Youre the one who directed me here last year haha It was good to meet you last year out there. Hope to see you again this year man!

 

I know ben! How are ya brother! I will be there for sure man looking forward to seeing all my tacoma friends! We were just asked to come as people this year so thats all we are doing. No prizes or trophies etc from us We may do our own soon tho like starting next year. Im kinda bummed they didnt wanna go the route I know all you guys want it to IT SADDENS ME!

 

Some buddies and I are gonna make it out to this for the first time. Never been to Pismo so besides the normal camping gear what should I make sure have with me? Really looking forward to it

 

There are no showers, just toilets (without running water). You need to bring all the food and drinks. Unless you go into town there is nothing on the dunes.

Maybe some weights or buckets to help hold the tent down. Tent stakes don't work well in the sand. Also its usually windy.

I think its still $10 a night to camp. You will want to air down after entering to about 15 or 20 psi to get traction in the sand. There are gas stations near by to air up when you are leaving.

 

How far is it into town?

 

haha and yet another question....should I reserve a spot online or will there be some when we arrive?

 

Nope

 

nope to which question?

 

To the "reserve the spot" question

 

There is a Rite-Aid for essentials in town (Oceano), a Walmart in Grover Beach(farther into town). Closest gas station I believe is a 76 on Paso Robles St..it's about a mile and a half into Oceano.


Like everyone else said there is a liquor store about 200 feet from the entrance of the dunes. Also a little coffee/smoothie place too.


Nothing on the beach, except on the weekends and busy Holiday weeks/weekends..then the store trailer is at Mile 1..right where the OHV area only starts. They have like shirts, drinks, snacks, repair supplies, basic tools, etc.


I'd air down to about 12psi. You can pay the guy $1 a tire to fill up before you hop on the street(hes located right on otherside of OHV access only sign usually)...or bring your own air compressor/power inverter. If not, closest air is 1.5 miles into town(76 station)


You only need to reserve spots for:
Thanksgiving(year in advance usually for a good spot)
Christmas/New Years
4th of July
Labor Day
and Fathers Day is packed usually too.


P.S. Thanksgiving is the BEST time to go..there are alot of hot rides and chicks out

 

You can air up your tires for free at chevron in town.

 

Yeaaaaaaaaaa, i haven't missed it!!!! Two weeks i can do.

 

Was out in pismo a month and a half ago.

 

I have a 20 lb. nitrogen tank, but usually i just go to the Chevron to get gas and air up at the same time.

The air is free and there are 4 hoses at each pump.

 

We aired up almost four trucks before one of ours was able to make it through the line. We had some might lil air compressors lol

 

So my stock prerunner will be able to make it out there? Obviously I'll need some help getting pulled out
