Endurance.Net Ridecamp Archives

This ride being my first multi day there are a few things that need to be taken that normally you would not take to a weekend ride

First take all your underwear. every pair even the thong you got as a joke for Christmas

Riding more then one day might require a change in style and panti elastic placement ( right Sherry from BC)

Next sunscreen , it was in the 80s for the first 2 days

Parka , hat , winter gloves , then the temp drops and it gets cold

Be prepared for everything

Socks lots of socks, more socks then you thought you would ever need ( the sand and dust made socks crunchy in hours)

Beer, beer , beer breaks the ice with the neighbours

A really big crew bag (the one Steph lent me to use was big enough for a body bag...mmmmm there might be something to that)

I guess she wanted something to pack my body back to camp into if I died from snake fright on the trail

Chap stick bring spares and lots of lotion the desert dies you out real fast

oh yes splints for broken fingers and tape

cases of bottled water

I am sure others can add to the list

Happy Trails
