Anyone know what the taxi cab or Uber availability is in Lexington? Staying at Americas Best Value ( I know, I know,,, that's all I could get). I'm told the motel is about a mile from the track but doubt it's a very good place to walk, i.e. no sidewalks, along busy roads, etc. Wondering how much trouble it will be to call uber or a cab to get to and from track. I'd hate to have to drive further away from Keeneland to get to one of the 3 park
And ride shuttle sites.

I'm hoping they have a shuttle but it's not exactly a hotel with a lot of amenities. If they have a shuttle that would solve the problem!! Guess I better make a call.

I was originally planning on just walking but not sure how dressed up we'll be. Don't want to be wearing heels and walking down the road especially at night. Sends the wrong message but I bet we'd get offered a ride!

Didn't someone assume the opposite once and was in for a RUDE surprise. I remember an eclipse award winning post on the subject a few years back
