Rule #1 At Burning Man, anything can, might, will, probably, or might not happen to delay or cancel any plans you have. If you are super time critical, your best decision might be to sell your ticket, save a whole lot of money on a whole bunch of other things, and watch the whole event 24 hrs. a day...

1. In one of your posts you ask, how far the city was from the airport? If you are flying in via Burner Express Air, they offer you the opportunity to pre-purchase water in 2-1/2 gal. boxes and pick-up your water at the airport. 2. Transportation to the city from the airport? There is a bus stop loc...

Mabfire,

This is a serious suggestion. If you are not stable on a bike, you might wish to add some training wheels to the rear wheel.

I say go for it. -~0..0~

That is an interesting ride you have there. There will be some streets that will be able to travel on and a good many streets that you will not be able to travel on. After a day one or day 2, you will find a good many streets (especially streets on 6:00 to 9:00 side of the city that will have turned...

Not in this life time..... ~0..0~

In prior years, for those theme camps who made prior arrangement/scheduling with BMO and who need larger amounts of fuel, in the past HELL STATION had large fuel trucks and they made deliveries direct to theme camps.

One ice chest full of ice will last the whole event.

Before a researcher might "...hope to find out how Burning Man's principles are manifesting beyond the boundaries of Black Rock City"; might it be a good idea for them to first attend the event on the playa to establish a base line? Also, might they also wish to spend a little of the grant money to ...

Some of you might wish to cut the academics a little slack. Who knows, some of their published research just might cause some positive change around the world. Could it be that one (or more) of the academics will use their grant money to purchase a ticket, air fare, and other support supplies & equi...

A local outdoor retailer advertised a "Magic Fish Scaler".

I called and asked the customer service representative if they knew where I could catch some "Magic Fish".

Gasoline Engine Noise - Loud Quad vs. Quiet Golf Cart..... What is done to make 4 cycle gasoline powered golf carts so much - much quieter than 4 cycle ATV's, 4 cycle lawn mowers and other small 4 cycle gasoline powered transportation? I can hardly hear the gasoline engines on golf carts. There must...

If you do not feed a stray dog then the stray dog will not hang around the house very long.

New word for the Burner lexicon:

POOP (Plane Out Of Place)

You have come to the right place and you have a whole year to plot and plan.

Keep reading and learning.

Yes, there is room to park a large truck.

Yes, there is something that I would like to share.

Teach me how to type and how to proof read.

Good catch Oden.

Ratty,

Since I do not have a smart phone, I cannot speak to that point.

However, on my desk computer, I do not see any Amazon adds or any adds a'tall.

If there is not such a camp now, you may well be the mustard seed from which such a camp can grow and prosper from. All it takes is two to make a camp. You have taken the first step. There is a Q&A section on the BM home (with a good bit of insider information) you might wish to give them a try -- t...

What unjon & Miss Ratty said....

Bradtem,

You are assuming that everyone wants to participate in such a project, that everyone had GPS on their smart phone and believe it or not, not every one has or even wants to have a smart phone.

Good try. But, no cigar for you this time.

I wonder how they broke or circumvented the lock?

cc124 wrote, "Had bike lock on." Which begs the question; was the lock cut and the trike ridden off by one person? Or, knowing personally how heavy and unwieldy a Schwinn Meridian is to carry, it could not have been carried by one person. It would have taken two and preferably three people to have c...

Several of us here on e-playa use a Schwinn Meridian for personal transportation on the playa. When they are fully assembled, they are not the easiest thing to man-handle or to transport. Your Schwinn Meridian will not be something that could be hung on a bike rack on the back of a car or easily lif...

Each year that I have volunteered at the event (14,15,15,17), around January, I have received a Thank You letter/envelope from BM ORG that was signed by the leaders of the venues where I volunteered and also enclosed was a real ticket from the previous year.

What the Captain said. In my opinion, you might wish to tune into the live feed around 7:45 Pacific time and enjoy the event. I am not sure if the live video includes the audio of the Burn. You might wish to tune into BMIR radio at the same time. They may have a remote feed from the burn site where ...

What Eric said about plenty of solo camping on the back streets and meeting new life-long friends. Probably more back street open areas on the 3:00 side of the city than the 9:00 side of the city. Solo camping has many plus' over group camping. The least of which is you own yourself and your time. H...

Captain,

Thank you.

Unfortunately, I do not have a smart phone and it will be another 1-2 weeks before leave the woods and drive into town.

Best,
Meat Hunter

Back in 2013 ( when I was learning about BM and preparing to go to the event in 2014) I was able to watch the live stream of the event on my computer. I attended the event in 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. Since my advanced level of decay will not allow me to comfortably make the 5 day solo drive to th...

Rest in Peace: U.S. Senator John McCain 81.

The only person in either the Senate or the House that I believed and trusted.
