Re: How far do you Travel to Mentor?

I currently drive 35min one-way from my home to the robotics build site on weekends. However, the build site is directly on my way home from work, which is 55 minutes away from home.

I started the season off with a team that built about 10min away from my apartment. Unfortunately, my lease ended and I had to move further away than I'd like too. In October, I got a job at a company further away than the team but in the same direction (ironically I got the job because of my connection with the team), but just didn't have enough time before build season started to move back to the general area. I plan to move after build season and will hopefully be sub 20min away from both for competitions and next season.
