some other event ideas

Well Ziggy and myself are making our arrangements for NABX 2011 - super stoked after missing 2010. Got our flight and vehicle booked. Not sure if we can twist the arm of anyone else in Ontario to join us - or any other Canadians for that matter.

Anyway, there is the message about daily top speeds - maybe a place to write down distances as well. Would be cool to start keeping all these stats.

I remember back to Bob's Geocache challenge and keep thinking we could do something similar (even like the out and back) but ask people to bring little trinkets from where they are coming from and we could distribute those into different cache locations.
Just something small/fun whatever that might have something to do with your city, country, culture, just fun - whatever. Or even throw all the items into a bin and and collect numbers at locations and pick items from a bin depending on the numbers you collect.

okay, should be doing work but thinking NABX....

Like this idea very much!

Is there any interest in bringing something from your city as a reward to the out n back achievers?

I love this!

This does not pre clude the patch, and you get to keep what you find(one to customer me thinks).

What say we?

My 1st thought was Bacon and Beer ! Beauty EH!

Taking meat over the boarder isn't allowed but I think we can think of something for Canada ! :thumbup:

This is a great idea. I love putting in lots of miles just cruising all around the playa but events make more memories and give a sense of accomplishment. I'm excited about high speed of the day as well. Not that I'd be on top but to be able to compare my progress to the best. Maybe I could hit the top ten one day.

i'd be down for distance, if we could get some lights on the playa too ... we could buggy 24hr as well.
