Hey Anya!
Wondering about possibly getting a ride with you partway after the gathering - it would be me and my bicycle/saddlebags. I'm still working on plans, but I'd love to get to either Joshua Tree or San Diego, depending on which way you're going. Happy to do some camping/hiking along the way, and split fuel costs.
Keep me posted if that might work for you, and if you have the setup to transport a bike.
