Last year I was sorta 'on the road' in Colorado in the weeks leading up to the fest. I actually found a ride to the festival from Denver thru Craigslist.. I ended up riding with an awesome girl..
Once I got to Town Park, I put up two signs looking for a ride back home to Phoenix, one on the bulletin board by the box office and the other on the main bath house.. Sure enough, these two awesome festivarians were heading toward Az, the only problem is that they were stopping for a day/nite at the Grand Canyon.. Boy, that little 'detour' was an incredibly amazing ending to an already stellar trip!!
