Hello, we are returning to BRC this year from the UK and are having a problem with bikes. We may or may not have a car to travel up to the desert in and would like very much to have bicyles to ride during the event. Our last visit to BM in 04 resulted in our bikes being nicked on the first day! We a...

I saw excessive numbers of people who brought 2 ply TP and baby-wipes. Once I educated them on how these fuck up the equipment, they were on board. Keep talking to everyone, and we'll all get enculturated. The first question one should ask to someone they meet is "How long have you been coming to B...

After our disappointing trip to BRC this year (from London), we hear that there might be a burn in Spain next year. Fewer People, more art, less (or no) Frat boys....

Can anyone shed some much needed light?

This was the first year we consistently locked up our rhoadescar even in camp. How sad. I hope you managed to have a decent burn, sorry to hear what happened to you. Dear Mars and AntiM, Thank you for your kind thoughts. Our burn was sort of ruined, but not by just these isolated events. I was a fi...

um... it *is* a logo for a limited liability corporation. and there is also the matter of the name of the event. Burning Thingie just doesn't have the same ring to it... I was hoping you might get the jist of what I was saying and not be so literal. I do not know the legal side of Burrning Man but ...

Within one hour of exploring the Playa on Monday night I had my bike nicked from in front of centre-camp. I left it unlocked (annoying as I had a lock, but was in such a happy mood and was stopping for just a mo...) and in a flash it was gone. Not an expensive/desirable bike in the outside world, bu...

If there HAS to be a man to burn (many artists could make something equally as fantastic to burn... why the freakin' "Man" year after year after year???) I say bring him back down to Earth. Don't make him so big that BMorg needs to spend a fortune on multiple cranes to raise him up. Let us get up cl...

[size=7][i][quote="Hotspur"]I do think that movie up the gate closure would have a beneficial effect. On the other hand, some people who want to go and could be a positive part of the community would get screwed over. There's no easy way to remedy this problem. I think a comprehensive camera ban mig...
