I understand and respect why some don't like it. At first I was a bit taken aback by what I thought was an obnoxious thing. It is difficult to defend on an intellectual basis. However, it seems that it is a long-standing priveledge of living here. While there was once many places to drive on the beach, Grayton is the last. As long as it's permitted, I'll do it.
Yes, some drive too fast, because they have "street" tires. I worry that there will someday be a tragic incident. But dang, admit it, isn't it cool to leave all your chairs and beach toys loaded in a dedicated beach-mobile? Just climb in and go!
