Be Early and Don’t Miss Out!

The event is packed with lots of exciting activities. The schedule is tight and all activities will start according to the event schedule. There can be traffic going in and out of the venue. So be early! Give yourself at least an hour early before the scheduled event that you will participate in. The Schedule of Events is posted below.

Have your lunch before coming to the event on Saturday. If you plan to drive or to take a taxi, traffic is a concern as the road to MX Club is one-lane dirt road. If you plan to drive, you might not be able to find a parking spot as space is very limited. There are only about 20 parking spaces available. Once the parking is full, you must find your own parking. You can try out the tracks if you arrive early.

Your Rig

Waterproof everything. There will be water obstacles. Make sure your rig is ready when its time for the event. There is no time for repairs during the event. When its your turn to go, you and your rig should be 100% ready. If you miss your turn, that's too bad... Come next year and we will have it ready for you again ;)

There will be style points. Make your rig look Boomtastic!
