for anyone who hasn\'t been on the island before and is thinking about going...
unless you have your heart set on off-roading or something, you really don\'t need a car there. if you have a bike, [-]bring it [/-] ride it there. i think it costs a lot of money to bring a car and the island is so small it\'s really not worth it.
fixed!
wow thanks paul.
^ if you dont bring your car over on the ferry do they have free lots where you can park your car while youre on the island or is that going to cost money as well?
i think it costs like $20 or something to park in the lot. not totally sure. i would think that if you don\'t park your car in the lot (ie try to find a spot nearby) you should be really careful because you will prob get towed.
just park in the lot at the end of the road, you\'ll see people flagging you in, they\'re not trying to rip you off $20 for the whole weekend. it\'s a safe lot.
ok awesome. $20 is very reasonable. thanks for all the info!
wow thanks paul.
just trying to get some of the, um, less athletic of us to get in shape a little. you know who you are. Plus it would be cool to have everyone down there with bikes for the couple of days :thumbsup:

We\'re bringing our bikes also.

<<< bring a sleeping bag and crashing were i fall. just bring bug spray
Al i\'m pretty sure you would be dead if you tried to ride a bike over either the Newport or Jamestown bridges.
Darn, I really want to tfind a way to bike down there. I do adventures like this all the time. I hope to find a bike-safe route to get there.
