What to Bring

A few common sense suggestions:

• A cell phone for emergencies (recommended but not required)

• Your bike and helmet or walking shoes

• Extra snacks if you have allergies or food sensitivities

• Your own water bottle

• Warm layers with moisture-repelling clothing. Early October weather can be cool, with rain and wind. The weather might also be gorgeous and sunny. So be sure to keep your eye on the forecast.

• A passion for the charity you're walking and fundraising for!
