Since Desert Bus 10, Matt has been training long and hard, honing mind and body to the peak of human endurance. Now harder, faster, and stronger, he is prepared to tackle his biggest challenge to date – a five day trip to Disneyland.

After which he’ll show up to Desert Bus… Probably.

Kara is currently serving penance for her childhood dislike of videogames and all things “uncool”.

It’s Desert Bus’ 10th year:

Her origin story will finally be fully revealed during her driving shift on Tues Nov 15 at 10am. Tune in for the REAL TRUTH…

It’s Desert Bus’ 10th year:

Her first memory of Desert Bus:
DB1. Stumbling in to a herd of geeks in Bill’s living room. There were cameras and wires, the drivers chair, 24 hour shifts and a long trail of empty energy drink cans. I brought food.
