Okay I broke down and bought a truck tent, it should be here before the event so it give an alternate place to crash if needed. I'll also have a cooler, water and whatever else we need

I'm already bringing a hot chick...AND we're going to help support a solo 500 rider (female) flying in for the event, so technically I'm bringing two!  You want more than that, you're too much man for me, bub   Tongue

guys, don't forget the stuff you were planning on bringing!  I'm prepping my ist now and checking it twice.  Make sure you review the rules and especially the parts about lights, reflectivewear, etc.

Mixed Bag of Nuts will just jump into your thread here too Smiley
Just got through updating all the reflective tape on the Corsa, Everybody all reflective?
The 3M stuff marketed by Nathan for $2 is very effective.
I have a rear triangle and 2 blinkies to go with the dual headlights, one high and one low.

Take Care,
Nelson.

 
The Apex Predators are jumping in here too.   I purchased my reflective tape from Plano Cycling.  They sell it for 2 bucks a foot.   But I dont know what to do with it.

you put it around your dingle and use it as a night-time dog lure.  That way I don't have to worry about the bumpus hounds at 4am,..... Grin

Terry, they want reflective stuff on "all four sides" of the bike.  So put some on the sides of your bike, and perhaps on your pedal cranks and seatstays.

For Sure man.  We got your back covered.  Those bumpus hounds no doubt remember you.  So for extra coverage you also need to douse yourself with your wife's perfume to mask your sent.   Cheesy
