Come join motocross superstar and X Games gold medalist Ronnie Renner as he heads out to some of the top off-road riding spots in California. You’ll have the opportunity to ride, hang and rip up the desert sand with Renner, the cast of the Great Ride Open and other FMX legends at a few of Renner’s favorite moto playgrounds. It’s not every day you get to ride and party with the best. There is no rigorous schedule, no info booths and no egos…just pure freeriding and awesomeness. Load up the trucks, bikes and haulers and come be a part of the action at Ocotillo Wells (March 26-28), Glamis Flats (April 7-11) and Pismo, Oceano Dunes (May 28-30).
Come one, come all. It’s camping and riding with Renner and friends in the desert. If this sounds like you or your friends, then come join Ronnie Renner and Friends. Keep in mind this is not a “learn to ride†event for you or your friends. Those heading out should be self sufficient. Camping, riding and your own bike and gear are required. So leave your mommies at home and plan on howling at the moon with Renner and Friends at any of these riding trips over the next 2 months.
Ocotillo Wells (March 26-28)
Ocotillo Wells is Renner’s favorite playground, making it the perfect spot for the tour to kick off. Located about an hour south of Palm Springs, Ocotillo Wells is legendary for its desert riding and natural terrain park feel.
A wide variety of off road vehicles can be operated within the park. These range from dirt bikes and ATVs to sand buggies and modified trucks. Any vehicle with a license plate or off road registration may be operated within the park.

Glamis (April 7-11)
Red Bull Ronnie Renner Freeride Tour will return to Imperial Country in April for a visit to the Glamis Flats.
The Glamis Sand Dunes are the most popular off-road destination in Southern California. Hundreds of thousands of visitors arrive on various holiday weekends, with estimates that more than one million visitors come every year. The Glamis Sand Dunes, also known as Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area, are located southeast of the Salton Sea in southern California at the border with Arizona and Baja California del Norte, Mexico.

Pismo Beach (May 28-30)
Red Bull Ronnie Renner Freeride Tour will then head to the Central Coast to ride the Oceano Dunes in Pismo California. This iconic riding playground is considered a hotpot for OHV activity on Memorial Day.
This off road area is among the most popular and unique of California State Parks. The 5 ½ miles of beach open for vehicle use and the sand dunes available for OHV recreation are attractions for visitors from throughout the United States. Oceano Dunes is the only California State Park where vehicles may be driven on the beach.
Oceano Dunes is located just off Highway 101 on the beach south of San Luis Obispo and north of Santa Barbara.
