The engine rumbles to life and the coastal air pushes through the open sides of the buggy as the group peels away from the ranch road toward Macao Beach. Dust rises from the trail; palms lean and the Atlantic calls ahead, restless and bright. Riders feel the pace in their palms, then slow to step ashore where surf and sand demand a different kind of attention.
