A way to air down your tires and a way to air them back up after the run, comes in handy, but if you don’t have an air compressor someone else will share theirs with you. A CB or GMRS radio comes in handy for communicating on the trail but is not required. Pack a lunch, folding chairs, and plenty of fluids to keep you hydrated. sunblock and bug repellent . Leave the alcohol at home to enjoy after the event. All of our events are family friendly so bring them with you. We usually have lots of wives and kids on our runs. We will meet at 8am at the Shell Gas Station on the corner of Hwy 178 and Comanche Dr. There is a Starbucks there also. Pulling out at 8:30, so arrive early if you are purchasing food, snacks, drinks or fuel. We will have lunch at Evan’s campground if we make good time, depending on the experience level of our group. We will take Rancheria Rd back to Bakersfield after the run. - Marcy & John
