    Default VIC Champs 5-9 Feb, travel arrangements thread

    As per last years thread, a place to help people (and me) organise travel arrangements for the upcoming champs.

    OK, so quick summary, I think I have so far:
    Wbennett - transporting Lucas and BITS
    Titleist - transporting Gammon and matt 3 jab, room for one more if needed?
    PeteyD - transporting BenM
    monsta - grunt
    mrbluu - transporting Eca and Peppas
    Dotty - transporting DCanto

    I think I have a seat in Monsta's ute for the trip from the airport to golf on Thursday, guess I will see how that goes if I have a lift all weekend

    Okay, due to my forced wirhdrawal from Champs I'll need to change the details for the car booking or wear a $50 cancellation fee.

    I booked a SUV through Alpha Car Hire to be picked up at Tullamarine on Thur morning @ 9am and dropped back there on Mon arvo around 2:15pm. $275 with zero excess.

    I know Binh and co are flying back on Sun via Avalon so not sure how this will work, but if anyone is happy to take the booking and for me to transfer it to their name, just post in here.

    I've got a couple of weeks before the $50 becomes half the booking amount.

    I have booked a XTrail or similar car. Was sharing costs with BenM and AndyP. AndyP pulling out has left us with a spare spot.

    I arrive on Thursday at 10:40, and fly out Monday at 18:00. So if those times suit, and you want to share costs (think it was $300 + fuel so around $120 each max) let me know.

    I've got an old style buggy with a seat that you can have Petey. I'll understand if somebody puts up a clickgear and you dump me for a better offer though.

    Just throw the curtain on top of the bed, unless it has stains on it.
    Hey, let's pop some Viagras and issue tickets with raging, mega-huge boners.

    Europcar seems to be the cheapest at the moment. I got an elantra for 4days for $190 for the Mrs and I (and potential ring ins).

    I rented alpha through melbourneairportcarhire.com.au. X-TRail very cheap, about 181 for the 5 days and 121 for the extra insurance.
