Advice for Sectional Riders
What every sectional rider needs to know
-Who are the people who snore and what does their tent looks like
-Know the people who get up at 5am or earlier.
-Bring a big tent for comfort’s sake and privacy…It’s your home.
-The three person tent is key. Purge clothing to make it fit in your red box.
-Know who the late night talkers are.
-Know the people who like to pee directly behind of their tent.
-Don’t ever trade Rum and Raisin PVM bars unless you are on the giving end.
-Don’t worry about diarrhea…we all get it.
-Plan on showering once a week. Embrace the dirt. Bring many wet wipes.
-If your section includes off-road, bring a bike with front suspension.
-Be prepared for nudity and saddle sore exams.
-Don’t be scared about the barbarity of our conversations. Poop is the main topic of discussion
-Anything you bring can be potentially broken, soaked or stolen. This tends to happen to digital cameras the most.
-Approximately 110km for the day can mean 120km…mentally prepare yourself.
-At dinner, eat firsts while you are standing in line for seconds.
-Don’t use the dishwashing tubs to wash your clothes.
