While I'd suggest a few improvements, this is a worthy event. The riding in DV is excellent, albeit unusually hot temps for October. We still loved the riding. We met a LOT of interesting people, and rode with a few new friends. And, the sponsors were companies I've dones business with and was able to meet and confer with the owners (Mosko, Taco Moto, Ruby Lighting). Excellent food, fun entertainment, great helpful staff, and like-minded new friends. Will return next year.
Awesome fellas and gals for a great event, food, ride and especially the entertainment.
Look forward to next ride
Thanks for making it out to the Dusty Lizard in Death Valley, Bill! Stoked you were there and glad you had a good time. We're really looking forward to the 2025 season–hope to see you then!
I can wait to for next year events..
We can't wait either, Paolo! Thanks for your support. See you at the next Dusty Lizard!
I could not have enjoyed my first Dusty Lizard more. Death Valley is always a great place to ride and the Mosko Moto crew puts on a great event. The campsite, food and music were top shelf and Volunteer Chris was everywhere at the same time giving trail beta, helping with repairs, and making sure everyone was having a great time. I’m looking forward to a Dusty Lizard in Utah! Thank again!
Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience at the Death Valley Dusty Lizard, Robert! We're really happy you had a great time. We'll definitely pass along your kind words to Volunteer Chris–he's the absolute best. Thanks again for your support and we'll catch you in Utah!
