It had been a while since I went biking. I took my road bike which was a big mistake and tricky once I got to the dirt. I had to walk some bits because my tires were too narrow and didn't have enough grip, but still had a good time:
Friday night got a massive dust storm right around 21:00, which made it quite difficult for pepole to get around unless they wer able to follow city streets. In my case, we were across playa and we only made it thanks to my GPS, biking absolutely blind for 10mn in a dust storm that would pound your face. But we made it :)
I can't believe it was opulent temple's 20th year on the playa, especially since I was there in 2003 when they first started. They have put more incredible parties each year, and they are entirely self funded. If you can make a financial contribution, please do. You can also buy Merch Here

DJ Booth was packed
true, the dust storm stopped a lot of people of getting earlier
A huge thanks to the whole Opulent Temple crew and DJs for making this unforgettable night happen. If you want to help say thanks, please remember that OT is entirely self funded. If you can make a financial contribution, please do. You can also buy Merch Here
After Dave Dresden, I went to find Discow to see Paavo's sunrise set, which was majestic:
yes, there is dust in the air :)
Before long, we got sunrise to finish a beautiful set:
