Prepping the Motorhome
To seal the exterior, Herb used painters and gaffer tape to seal all window, compartment, and door seals. A home air filter cut to size was used to filter the incoming air from our rear Fantastic Fan. The air conditioner had some additional filtration added to help clean the air it would be pulling in.
Make the bikes playa-ready
To make our bike rides (day and night) on the playa safe and comfortable, Herb put LED lights on our wheels so we could be seen at nightm Headlamps so we could see where we were going, baskets to carry our stuff, and big cushiony seats so our butts would survive the bumpy rides on the playa
