[QUOTE="phroenips, post: 984908, member: 19942"] Two plane tickets to get both Joe and Cec home, and a potential third ticket for someone* to do a fly and ride would've quickly exceeded the $700 mark. We were scheming a plan B which involved shipping the bike and they get a rental car to go home, storing the bike in our garage in Colorado Springs until the shipper could pick it up, but the shipping alone would've been around $600, plus the rental car. These alternatives also ignore Joe's attachment to his baby and having to leave it in a different state in the hands of others would have been difficult. For the gas, he would have budgeted for a vehicle that gets 40mpg, not 10mpg *finding that "someone" able to take the not insubstantial time away to do this may be difficult as well [/QUOTE]
