Two Brits in need of a driver

Post by Willo » Fri Aug 11, 2017 4:55 am

Hi all!

Two Brits here, all ready for our second burn!
We've got a car pass, we're ready to pick up a car from SF and take the two day trip up to the burn. One problem, neither of us can drive... :?

So, we're on the lookout for someone who can help us out. We can cover the cost of the car, so it'd be a cheap trip up.

Reply or drop me a message if you're interested and we can sort out the details!

Cheers
Will

Yeah, unless you're planning an overnight stop in Reno, it's a one-day drive. 350ish miles/563ish kilometers. Many do plan an overnight stop in Reno, if that's what you're planning you should mention that. You may also want to specify either your specific travel dates, or the date ranges if your schedule is flexible.

Good luck!

We stopped over in Reno last year, so was planning to do the same but can do it in one big day if preferred. We have no need or attachment to Reno :-P

Aiming to get there on the Sunday, earlier the better.
Heading back Sunday evening, would like to see Temple burn on Monday but could flex.
Have another driver on the way back for splitting the ride.

Heya guys,
I'm looking for a car to get there on Sunday myself. Do you think you might have a space?
I do *technically* have a driving license - although I'm out of practice and I've never driven on this side of the road (I'm a fellow Brit!)

If you find a driver and maybe still have a space and want someone to contribute on budget then do give a shout.
