For starters I'm bringing my Mtn Bike...we finally found the trails the last day and went for a little hike and they looked very fun! I would like to get in shape and actually ride around Lockn next year possibly with a little buggy on the back for cold beer! I also finally made it to Garcia's forest on the last night and boogied til about 4am when they shut it down. That place is sooooo cool @ night, will def be spending more time there next year. Last thing I think we might look into RV camping next year though car camping was pretty fun this year with the perfect weather even though my air mattress went flat every night due to a pin hole somewhere....

That's my bucket list for next year!

The trails were super fun, I rode them during the day on Thursday, and had them all to myself, which was so serene. The trail that runs parallel to high field was challenging as hell.

On Friday, my wife and I were biking to the Forest Shakedown, and passed Dave Frey walking on the road, where he called out, "Did you bike the trails?" I yelled back that I had the previous day and that they were awesome, which made him smile.

Dryw brought bacon and eggs, so we had bacon/egg/cheese sandwiches for breakfast. That will happen again.

I will bring two chairs next time. We went into the show in the morning, then left our chairs so we didn't have to find a new spot, then when we got to camp we had no where to sit.

Otherwise, we pretty much have this down to a science.

I will bring an uncomfortable chair to the show field so I won't fall asleep.

I will not camp next to a gravel road--but always on a hill.

I made sausage pinwheels at home and they heated up great in the frying pan for breakfast.

As I did this year, set up camp with a guy who has a commercial ice maker and a big truck!

I will bring less food, as I don't end up cooking as much as I thought, other than breakfast. But what I brought home will keep.

puf is not suppoosed to even divulge that we HAVE free water and gatorade in VIP much less hand it out to the GA. Jeez no wonder my ticket costs keep rising...

We noticed that too! We were wondering how much it would be to rent a decent van and just set up shop there....then again if we get car camping right behind BRB again car camping becomes so worth it!

Sleep with earplugs

In addition to earplugs I brought noise-cancelling ear muffs I use for shooting. Not real comfortable but OK with a big pillow. great for naps.

I usually fell straight asleep with all the whisky in my ears and when it wore off, went for the muffs or the plugs. I was in a very loud location.

I had 24 hour self-serve fresh percolated coffee at my camp; you should have come by.

To serve yourself, you had to pump the gas tank on the stove 50 times and light it; dump out the out grounds and clean the basket, pour in fresh water and measure the coffee; put it on the burner and once it started perking turn it down so it doesn't boil; wait for the glass to show brown, then.....serve your own damn self!

And no cups. Bring your own or fill a beer can, troll.
