What to bring with me to the school and races?

[CaneZach]

I'm attending the school next month and I can't wait! I saw the list of things that I need to bring to the school, but as I go through my garage, I keep seeing things I think might be helpful, but I don't want to overpack since all I have is my 4x8 trailer and a Chevy Blazer.

Here's what I normally take to the track, aside from the obvious stuff like bike, leathers, etc.:

Tools: Socket set, Allen wrenches, etc.
Stands
Canopy for shade
Chairs
Cooler
Fire extinguisher
Fuel can
Notebook and pens

But off the top of my head, that's about all I can think of. What else should I start bringing with me? Thanks!

if its anything like last year, what i would have missed was something like a hoodie big enough to fit over or enough layers to fit under your leathers. It was hella cold last year.

the key to your bike!
put all your gear in a gear bag. so you dont leave your boots in your driveway when you leave to hastings!
warmers.
buckets that you can fill with water and tie downs for your canopy. they are sails at pueblo and hpr.
umbrella-hpr
bug spray
plexus for the damn bugs at hpr.
and uh... balls

This will be way over the top for race school. But this is what I have put together for racing and am still adding to it. So use what you want now and delete the rest or save the rest for when you start racing. If you email me I can send you the actual spreadsheet with the formatting intact.
