Hi fellow members,
As some of you may have heard I mentioned the possibility of organizing a travel bus for the 2008 toledo rc show. I planned on organizing the event depending on the number of seats. I think we would of had no problem getting the numbers for a good price . However, time would have been an issue.
It takes approx 4.5 hours to drive one way and 4.5 hours return. That's not facturing the border crossing. Apparently because of our strong dollar and everyone crossboarder shopping, the boarders are overwhelmed with buses from both directions 2 to 3 hours. Some thing like that would ruin the purpose of the trip. I don't really know if that would be the case in april. The other issue is according to the bus rental, they are not to exceed a tour for more than 13 hours by law. That would not leave a lot of time for the rc show.
Maybe no time at all.
It would have been great if we could have done this as a club but getting stuck at the boarder.......?
So with regret I will not attempt to make it happen this time around.
