Note: There are several shelters along the way. Feel free to turn around at any one to shorten your Festivus adventure.
What do I need to bring? Besides a working bicycle, you will need lights. Red flashing light on the back and an LED or HID light on the front required. Many decorate their body/bikes, but this is not required. Special prize for the best light display.
