I'm looking at going to the Challenge this year, my best bet is to road-trip with someone from Ft. Lauderdale, it's vastly cheaper for me to fly there than anywhere else in Florida. Was talking with cwh but he's not gonna be able to make it this year. Anyone else travelling from there?
Damn, Chuck was going to be my first suggestion, and I was hoping to meet him too. Hopefully you'll find someone to hitchhike with!
I'm Melbourne. Thats 2 hours North of Ft. Lauderdale.
Is MCO not cheap? I can make that on my way.
MCO's not that cheap, about 2x the cost of going to Ft. Lauderdale and a little bit more than Jacksonville. I might be able to work out something involving a bus though, I'm looking through those options now.
Edit: Found a possibly better direct bus option, catch the RedCoach bus at 8pm on Wednesday, sleep on the bus and arrive at Gainesville at 2am.

Really feel bad about standing you up, but health issues suck.
Don't worry about it, you let me know from the start that it wasn't a sure thing.
So it looks like the best options are either taking a bus to and from Ft. Lauderdale, or perhaps road-tripping with someone to and from Jacksonville. Surprisingly taking a bus to and from Jacksonville isn't a good option due to the weird times and surprisingly similar costs to travelling from Ft. Lauderdale.
I think Stampie is in Jacksonville. Is that where you are starting?
Got things worked out, I'm flying into Jacksonville and road-tripping to Gainesville with pimpm3. Thanks for the help everyone!
