Hi,
We live in Lakeside, California and while cleaning out an old beet bed we ran across this spider. We had never seen anything like it and were curious if anyone knows what kind it is?

Not a spider, but another arachnid in the order Solifugae - they go by many common names - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solifugae

Thank you very much! The link really helped! We just knew we had never seen anything like it and wanted to make sure it wasn't dangerous. Thanks again!
