It doesn't look like the rest of lacordee will come after Gaspesia, so I'll also be looking for a lift. I'm in if we need to rent a car.

I was wondering if we still get a McGill cycling team Discount at "Discount" for renting cars to go to events. And also If we have someone >25years old renting the vehicle. It costs less,because younger drivers are more of a risk apparently.

To clarify:
leaving at 3pm so we can pre-ride the course, and meet up with the guys who are putting us up for the weekend to help them prepare dinner and stuff.

I could leave at latest 5pm and skip the pre-ride but I would prefer 3.

Right now my car is
Me (100%)
Colin (80%)

I can take 2 more (3 if it's like sardines)
1 more if colin drops out for some unexplained reason

I finish work around 6:00 so I can leave any time after that. I'm in if we need to rent a car, but I don't have a licence and can't drive.

might need a bike rack. Im Not Sure. Reserved an "intermediate" Car for Friday. Picking it up on Friday.. Not sure what Type of car it is. A bike rack may be an idea.

p.s. I don't have access to a printer. Therefore It would be safe for someone to print a road map to help us make it there

I have a gps phone, so we can make it there no problem. I'll try and find a map anyways, but I don't have a printer either. It would also be good to have the race schedule / info printed out.

I'll look into the bike rack.
