If it was just me, I'd just load Vader in the back of the pickup and head on down. But if I go, comonboys will want to come too, that means trailer for us.

That means about 125 gal of gas each way.
At an estimated $2.25/gal = $563 total
200 miles a day on the bike while there... = ~ $14/day X 4 days = $56
7 days of food ~ $35/day = $245
Figure a couple hundred for lodging over the whole time and there ya go.

Bonus of a trailer would be an enclosed place to park the bikes and sleep if need be.

Why is the lodging so far from the gap? Not planning on spending much time at the gap? How close to the date can we reserve?

The rally was moved to Suches GA to accomidate the CF'ers and due to increased Po Po at the Gap.

Lodging is that far from the Gap because we're having the rally in Suches

That was the original plan from our group from CF. We invited the TWFix'ers to join us if they wanted and the concensus from y'alls members was to join us at Suches.

I still want to go. But it will depend on a lot of things between now and then.
I would NOT be riding however.

your math is way off.

If you are gonna do the ride by yourself cut the gas bill in half, then lodging is $80 pp plus 1 night near the gap, where we will wind up room sharing.

If you drive your truck with other people in it, then divide the truck gas bill by how many people you have in it.
