Two fields - one 21 miles north of me and one 32 miles south of me. Both take about 35 minutes due to different road conditions.

In my case it's 30.0 miles exactly, but worth the effort. The field IS AMA-sanctioned.

It takes about 30 min to get there, but if there isnt much traffic, I can get there in about 20.
