Hi my name is Chad.
I am hopefully coming this year! I have been trying to get here for some time and I recently graduated law school, will be taking the bar in july, and can think of no place I'd rather be than the playa after that. (Am I allowed to call it the playa, having never been there?)
I have already set up a request on the ridesharing forum, but I'll throw it out there that I need a ride. I'm in the Maryland, DC, Virginia area if anyone is road tripping out there, or wants to. I'm even willing to drive my explorer out there if anyone wanted to share the gas money and the road. If not I plan on getting to Reno and hoping for a ride.
I know literally no one going to Burning Man, and actually have never met anyone who has been to Burning Man. Any advice would be great, and if you just want to get to know each other, please contact me. My email is [email protected].
If there is a group out there that needs one more, or someone willing to help a beginner out, please let me know.
Taking the leap,
Chad

Hey there, welcome to eplaya!

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

Welcome
Savannah: I don't know what it is, but no thread here escapes alive. You'll get 1 or 2 real answers at minimum, occasionally 10 or 12, and then we flog it until it's unrecognizable and you can't get your deposit back.

Hi Chad!
Good luck with the exam.
You can offer a rideshare here (a Ford Explorer with two people in it will require very careful packing in order to get everything in):
https://rideshare.burningman.org/
Make sure to read the Survival Guide here a few times:
http://survival.burningman.org/
If you fly, it's not too hard to get a ride from the Reno Airport:
http://burningman.org/event/preparation ... o-airport/
But you might like to lock things down for yourself through Burner Express (see also the Green Tortoise bus)

Re: New Burner
Chad, Welcome to ePlaya. Do some research now and save yourself a lot of grief later. There is help for you here. (Use Google to search this site, not the search box on this page.) Plus the BM web site is full of ideas. We'll toast your well made plans at the Meet & Greet.
