Burning Man by Bike plus TARP for the Playa Bound & for the Do Lab

Ahh yes, getting warmed up for playa bike rides with the First Friday ArtRide tomorrow night! Meet up with us at the Son Jon Road City yard parking lot before 5:30 or from 530-6pm, OR outside or inside the Artists Union Gallery or the bar at Aloha or C St restaurant along the Ventura Beach Promenade.

And here’s a cool reduce-reuse-recycle idea for the Playa bound:

Big lumberyards wrap their bales of lumber in huge tarps for shipping, which the yards (like Builder’s Supply on 72nd in Omaha, NE) throw away. The tarps are huge, black or tan on one side & white with company logo on the other side. A Burner asked to have some & they said all she wanted, and that they work for tent flooring as well.

These are not just plastic sheets, they’re the regular fiber tarp like the blue stuff you buy at the hardware store. They’re great for a lot of pruposes including tacking around the front of camp to keep from tracking in so much dust. They’d also be good for windblock or additional shade.

And if you start on this now, you’ll have plenty of time to customize them! Anyone else got great playa tips? Post them here please and post on the ePlaya Q&A/Tips and Tricks forum (http://bit.ly/sqJx9)
