Who wants to go to Toronto, Ontario, Canada with me on June 13 (Friday)- 16 (Monday) to enter a St. Louis Team in the WORLD Bike Polo Championship Tournament?
I'm gauge-ing interest in filling the car with St Louisans and bikes to make the drive. If I can find just two others (a team's worth) with the time (it's a 13 hour drive each way) and cash, we'll do it.
Estimated expenses: 75$ to enter. 60$ in gas (estimate divided by 3) plus money for eating/drinking for 2 days on the road and two days playing polo. Perhaps 200 total per person.
Must haves: Passport. Helmet. Bike and mallet.
Anyone?

I don't think I could get a passport in time. I wish you could still get in to Canadia with only a birth certificate.
Effective January 31, 2008 the state department no longer soley accepts oral declarations of citizenship as proof.
A passport is only necessary for travel by air in and out of the country.
