Cautions
  1. 1.At XP 2, vans must park within the Interstate U-Store parking lot. DO NOT park anywhere on the road. Team vans need to exercise caution when parking. Do not block driveways or bike lanes.
  2. 2.Be extra careful crossing train tracks. You cannot judge the distance and speed of an oncoming train. You cannot always hear a train coming. A train can approach any track, from either direction at any time. On multiple tracks, more than one train can be present at one time. If the gates begin closing at a train crossing, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CROSS. Be smart and safe!
Van Directions
  1. 1.From Dorostkar Park, use Mayberry Drive to W. 4th St. In the Mogul Subdivision, you will enter the freeway. Do not drive up Silva Ranch Rd, you will have to turn around and come back down the hill. You only drive 1 mile on I-80, then take the 1st Verdi exit (Exit #5). Turn right at the roundabout onto Somersett Ridge Parkway and drive about 0.2 miles to the exchange on your left. Enter in the far east entrance and leave through the west entrance. (If coming from the round about, you will pass the exit first before turning left into the far east entrance)
