fellow rally enthusiasts,

I wanted to add to Joe’s message regarding Midnight Run. I helped with checkout last weekend (so I’ve been on the course) and I highly recommend running this rally. I enjoyed the roads, the vistas, and the (for the most part) utter lack of civilization. It is amazing that only a couple of hours from the California coast is wide open farm land for miles and miles. We did the checkout during the day but I continually envisioned how the roads would be at night time.

It is definitely a straightforward rally, not too easy, but not so overchallenging or complex. Not that I would ever advocate breaking laws or driving unsafely, but you will be on some straight roads, in the middle of the night… very scarce law enforcement, cyclists, kids and dogs all sound asleep, not wandering into your path. And as Joe said, the overnight rally is fun, it is not boring, it goes by faster than you think it will. Just sleep late on Saturday and bring coffee or energy drinks for the road. Snack lightly as you go and don’t eat a huge meal at the break. Swap drivers occasionally if necessary. Studies have shown that 4 a.m. is the slowest point in the human body’s rhythm so make sure that you are talking and playing the radio etc. Once the sun comes up you definitely get a second wind. Bring a handheld lamp to view routes and maps without having to use the dome lamp. This is the way almost all rallys used to be run, the daytime rally was the exception to the rule. So come out and do the Midnight Run and have a great time!
