Sorry - this might be long and I'll try not to complicate it. Visualize an out-and-back driveway at the racetrack entrance - probably 1/8 of a mile. Riders come into the driveway, ride 1/8 mile, turn around a cone and head back out. The restroom building is near the cone at the u-turn. Cars are lined-up on either side of the driveway.
People with support set up closer to where the riders come in, furthest away from the u-turn. Why? Riders can come by, shout out what they need on the way in, then by the time they've made the uturn, their support crew has whatever they needed ready to go.
Most people have their support set up Saturday morning, while we're out doing the first century (that's an out-and-back away from the track.)
Since we're doing the 24, unsupported, we're gonna set our car out late Friday night, after we get everything we need set up and ready to go.
(And not really 100% sure how to get the car moved from the 12-hour setup to the 24-hour location on the track!)
For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.
