Last call for rides to DC
I Need riders! I'm in upstate NY and we have to go south anyway so let me know where you are. This will cost a lot less with 3 or 4 of us than with one. I have a minivan with reasonable gas mileage and I'm filming a documentary to boot. A fun ride and maybe get famous. IM me if interested within the next few hours.

2. I may be stuck in NY if I can't find a rider or two to contribute.
My calculations on gas aren't looking good right now

11. "IF" you get low on fuel, pull into an affluent town's gas station, & beg
Be sure to take a FIVE gallon plastic gas can, no matter. A 4 foot chunk of garden hose helps others help you from their own gas tank.
If you want to go, you gotta go, lifetime opportunity!

8. Too far to be practical probably :)
I wish I could, but I'll be at the office until late tomorrow and need to be back for Monday AM, so I don't think I can do it.
