Gearing Up GVBR 2016

It was 2004 that I last did this ride.  A can of Bourbon was $5. I predict it will be $10 this time around. It should be a lot less crowded, as back then there were no limits on participation and around 9000 riders and 1000 volunteers were moving across the countryside like a swarm. I believe a limit of 5000 riders was imposed after that. I have rented a tent but stuff expands to fill the space available. If I ever do this again then the list is here. Total weight 17 kgs.
