Just understand that it is about a 8 1/2 hour drive to the turn off for BRC from Vegas. I would recommend that you read the survival guide, and stock up on water, socks, booze, and shade!

Hi Garth!

The Survival Guide is here (22 links or 16 pages if you print it, which helps):
http://www.burningman.com/preparation/e ... index.html

There will be a 2011 Survival Guide, w/ updates . . . one day.

Welcome home Garth! If you travel up highway 95 (in Nevada), obey the speed limits and be as polite as you can at stops! Buy your water in Reno. Best of luck!

Garthius...check your local Burning Man contacts (http://www.euroburners.org/wiki/HomePage).

Holland has a fair amount of attendees. Why, just last year I had two Dutch riders in our group of 9.
