What to Pack Specifically for Babes Ride Out East Coast  

  • Have your bike serviced BEFORE you come to the event. Make sure that baby is tuned up and roadworthy! 

  • Add the $35 100 mile moto towing to your AAA package. It's good for a year and YES, I have had to use mine before and it's saved me a ton of cash. If you bike breaks down, this is like having a guardian angel. 

  • Tent/Hammock (tons of trees at this site for shade) Make sure ALL pieces are there before you roll out to the event. Nothing is worst than a missing rain fly or pole. 

  • Sleeping Pad

  • Sleeping Bag

  • Headlamp

  • Water Bottle w/ clip (we have potable water on site to fill your bottles)

  • Wet Wipes / Face wipes 

  • Pillow (camp size)

  • Camp towel (the quick drying kind that folds up super small) 

  • Extra fuel (check out Lowbrow Customs fuel canister at $19.95)

  • Warm clothes (HOT TIP! Waterproof compression sacks can fit everything you need and more)

  • Clothes for extreme heat & humidity

  • Zip ties

  • A couple of sandwich bags in case it rains and you need to create a waterproof way of carrying your iphone.

  • Trash bag to cover your seat at night

  • Rain poncho (the kind that fits in your pocket)

  • Multi tool

  • Toiletries 

  • Sunscreen

  • Tool kit / roll

  • Swimsuit

  • Flip flops (super shitty ones for the shower)

  • Bug spray... seriously, you'll want this!

  • $$ always have cash on you no matter what. A lot of times banks will cut off your card as you nickel and dime your visa at the gas pump or a state park will require a small fee. 

  • $$ for merch

  • $$ for food trucks

  • $$ for coffee

  • Camera or GoPro

  • Positive mental attitude

  • Rain gear (if weather calls for it or not)

Forget something? There is a camp store on site that has everything you need. They take cash and cards :) 

Remember, weather  changes daily and is unpredictable so always be prepared. If you need to get anything, we highly recommend going to backcountry.com or REI  they have it all and you still have time to order these supplies online before the event.
