Yeah, thankfully I don’t get car sick…but I can see easily how it could churn some people’s tummies. And I agree with Jim, you pick someone and go with it. Marnie and I, thankfully, have worked GREAT with each other right from the start, but there was definitely a level of communication that we worked on to get to where we are. I had to figure out how much repetition of instruction she needed, she had to figure out exactly what I meant by “right at T” (are we coming up to a T, or does that mean a side street ends at a T with the street we’re on, etc). I think it’s safe to say even a year into this, we’re still ironing out the details, but it all figures itself out the more times you do it with the same person. ---

:bump: First winter event is less than two weeks away… Remember that you need to have a valid inspection sticker in order to compete! If yours expired last Friday (or earlier :P) don’t forget to get it done. You also need a reflective triangle or road flares, and a tow rope (they are usually on sale at Harbor Freight). Snow shovels aren’t required but I suggest bringing one anyway. :ohnoes: ---

Update, weather looks good and cold for the weekend. 🙂 Here are better directions to the start location: > It’s on the corner of County Rd 10 and 5&20 - which is on the north side of 5&20 (across from the Roseland Center Plaza). That makes it one traffic light past where Rt 364 comes out but before you get to the Walmart plaza. ---

Might have to head over and run one or two of those. If there’s any experienced navigators looking for a ride, let me know. ALPHA experience a plus. ---

> [@blownb310](#): > > Thanks for all for the hard work it takes to put these on Mark. 🙂 Mark doesn’t do the road rallies, Tom does… I don’t think either of them are on this forum though 😉 Next event is this Saturday, start/finish is near Leicester, so it’s somewhat close for you Buffalo guys. ---
