I don't understand taking a plane to go 300 miles. Air travel is way more trouble than it's worth for 300 miles.

Fair enough, that's understandable.

We did a 4 hour drive for the UK open in Manchester (220 miles). I guess I'd be willing to go anywhere within the UK, but would probably opt for the train/plane if it was further than that!

I think it took 10 hours to drive to the Czech Republic from Holland. Bearing in mind I also had to fly to Holland first

I'm willing to drive long distances to do the things I want to do but my limiting factors are more to do with time I have available and the other commitments in my life.

The farthest we can go is probably 6 hours. 
Basically, there's Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Houston, maybe a few other places.
My dad isn't willing to buy a hotel room for a night because my dad thinks cubing is stupid and won't stay at a hotel so "I can turn a rubik's cube a few times".

Would say 3 hours alone and anything up to 24 with good company. To me, that's part of the fun.

I live as far south as you can go in Texas. We had our first competition down here a week ago, so before that I had never gone to a competition closer than a 4 hour drive away.
