SHAG 0 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Hi. Wondering how all you dudes get to the slopes? I've not got a car and so will either be catching a lift with buddies or getting the train. Link to post Share on other sites
DumbStick 13 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Train & car. Walk? That would be good if you could. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Last year I rode my bike to the station and caught a bus a few times. Really fun with my fatties strapped to my back. I even did that in mid May getting a few stares from people wearing shorts. Now I gots me a car. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Car no 2 ways about it if you want to hit the goods without the hassles a car is needed. It costs a bit more and parking can be a bitch but in my mind I need it. The 1 hour+ ride to the inlaws is a 30mins cruise. The former day before bus trips are now wake up and go trips. Leave overnight sleep at the wiggles and get freshies now thats what I call heaven. Link to post Share on other sites

nori-chan 0 Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I wish it was walk. But it is train and bus or car. I don't like bus most. Link to post Share on other sites

kutsurogi 0 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Walk sure would be nice. I'm not too far away, I don't think, but it will surely be train and car. Must find friends with car. Link to post Share on other sites
stripper on coke 0 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 I've walked a few times last season, it's about 10 mins to the first lift. Walking home is better - take a small chair up a gentle slope, then head home through the trees and a couple of roads.....FUN Most times take the car to the further mountian though....
