Default For you Jennings attenders...

I'm just trying to get a rough idea of how much you all spend for the whole trip.

I figured there's going to be the cost of gas, lodging, entry fee, food. Am I missing anything else? I'm in the planning stages for this "trip". I plan on leaving on a friday, racing saturday, returning home sunday. I'm going to start putting money aside for it now and was thinking about going sometime in May, maybe June, once class is done with for the summer.

Figure about spending $500-$600 with tires and everything. You can cut costs, by finding a good deal on tires and camping for example.

You should come up with Seductive Cycles on the 20th.

Thanks for the invite and I'd love to go but I'm not financially able to go do it yet. I will be in a couple months here though. Thanks for some actual numbers guys. Thus begins the saving.

I have to work that day because that is the Sunday before the Seductive Cycles ride on Sunday the 27th. God I wish I had a mon-fri job.
