Carlisle is coming up and I really want to come. It follows 3 days after my 18th birthday but it's a 4 hour drive for me. Is there anyone who is willing to carpool in the tri-state area, or caravan with? Do I have to stay over night or can I just come for one day? I tried using the PM'ing feature of NICO but I don't think some of the member's got it.

Why is 4 hours of driving a big deal?

It's only about 600 miles for me. I wish it was a four-hour drive.

I really want to go to Carlisle but I'm supposed to go to my brothers surprise birthday party in Hoboken on the 8th and then his actual birthday is the 9th. I was thinking about going down Friday night and staying for most of Saturday and then going back to Jersey that night so I can make it to his party. Carlisle is only about 2 1/2 hours from me. Still not sure what I'm doin tho.

Additionally, why drive 4 hours back and forth just to stay for one day? Staying there would be ideal.

Nala, no one is gonna want to drag your stupid as$ for 4 hours one way and then turn around later that day and do it again. Buy a bus ticket if you wanna go so badly.

I'm planning on leaving Scranton at about 6 or 7 PM on Friday and then follow I-81 for 132 miles. I wouldn't mind forming a convoy with anyone that happens to be going through around then :)

Just 138 miles and 2.5 hours! W00t

Its just about 3 hours for me.
I want to go but was wondering what I would do after the days event is over? I can't go to any bars so what would I do sit in my room all night?

Nala, just drive it and stay overnight. Four hours is nothing, you will have time to think about your life and all the skanks you're going to pull at the show.

Somebody bring the poor kid with them when you guys roll into Philly, we'll dump him off at Cecil B. Moore Ave, they'll take REAL good care of him down there.

yea, dire and I are carpooling. Were going to take the QX4 so all of you can see it. I'm going to ask my parents this week if I can hopefully come. Where are all of your members staying, and how much does it cost? We are not sure if we want to stay overnight so we were going to leave NY around 6 or 7 AM , arrive around 10 or 11, and leave around 4 or 5 and get back here around 10 or 11.
