hey, i should be able to come to watchtower friday evening, it's just a matter of being able to get into the city alone (i'm staying in garrison). I was planning on taking the train into grand central, and then taking the 7 train to times square, switching to the 2 train, and then going to the clark street stop. Does anyone who knows the city think this would be a good route?
Thats a good route. Clark Street and High street (A) are closest to Watchtower. It simple, you look down the blocks and locate the Brooklyn Bridge, so you know thats the direction to watchtower, and then you find the river (you'll see that the block ends adruptly around 3 blocks or so down from where you are) so you head that way.
hey, i am comming from ottawa with dasha from toronto
we get in new york at "penn station" at 6pm friday
just wondering if we would be able to make it to watchtower thingy.
i at least want to hit the friday night rip.
ned, will people go to the earthwing party after food at your place? is it far?
look forward to skating with you guys and gals! I am getting on a bus to toronto then to new york at midnight tonight, 16 hours on a bus here i come!
Damn 6pm, I think you're better off just heading to the RIP (at 8pm) and to get there you take the "F" train. This is complicated for a non-new yorker to understand, but you take a Brooklyn bound "A" train to Jay Street (in brooklyn). You then get off and transfer to an "F" train that is on the same platform (should be a brooklyn/coney Island bound local train) and you take it to 15st/prospect park.
Me and my boy Julz will be heading in around 8ish hopefully we will see some riders in Grande Central were planing on just riding from there to the park.

!
Yup, we'll definitely go to the earthwing party at 8pm (that'll pretty much be the highlight of the whole weekend in my opinion). the cookout is 100% optional, just a chill spot for anyone who wants some free food, beer and a spot to crash out for a while after the race. We'll probably take the G-train from my house to Bushwick; it'd be about a 20-30 minute subway ride from my house.
