Trip Agreement
- Gas and routine maintenance will be split evenly by all riders.
- Food costs should be kept low by cooking most meals. Groceries should be split evenly, and a rotation will ensure all everyone has their turn cooking, cleaning and sitting back.
- While we may follow a planned route itinerary, the day to day travel will be determined by the majority. Jay gets an extra vote in the event of a tie.
- Plan for a laundry/town visit once a week.
