Solo City doesn't have "water" AFAIK.

Solo City (RV camping) is literally across the street from the entrance to
the site. You can also have a daytime paddock space for the RV.

5 heats with the day starting at about 8 and finishing by sometime between
maybe 4 or 5.

Bring a bicycle or small "moped", lots of sunscreen, warm/hot/cool/cold/wet
weather clothing, assume LOT's of wind. Plan on walking the courses MANY
times starting as soon as they are set up. You need to learn them like no
other courses you have ever run!!!
