Re: [emrat:11429] Three Flags Classic - planning and budgeting?

Martin,
 From what I can remember, I spent somewhere in the range of $1,500 - $2,000 for when we went, but as Steve said we did not really watch the budget too much all the time. The highest cost by quite a lot was lodging although I was able to split the cost with Charlie which did help quite a bit.

I am not planning on this year, but the 2020 ride is something I would like to start planning on.

Hey, I want to throw some questions out there at the Three Flags Classic (TFC) veterans out there, since I know we have several in the group.  

How do you calculate your budget for that?  This has been a dream ride of mine for years and I just want to see if I can figure out a potential cost.  

Depending on where the ride starts and ends, I'd likely have to figure on a minimum of 3 riding days to the start and 3 riding days from the finish to get home.  

The ride itself starts on the Friday of Labor Day weekend, right?  And ends on Labor day, Monday, with the banquet Tuesday night?  So assuming that one has to check in on Thursday night and won't check out until Wednesday morning, that's 7 nights lodging for just the ride itself, yes?  

For those of you that don't mind sharing, do you recall what your expenses were?  Seems to me lodging is by far the biggest expense, followed by food and then fuel.  

Thanks for any info!
