degeneration 5 #1 January 19, 2009 It is looking more increasingly like I'll be doing a NYC to Toronto travelling summer holiday with the other half this summer, but when she heads home I'll be staying out to do about 5-7days of solid jumping somewhere... the question is... where? Is there any DZ within reasonable travelling distance of Toronto (I don't mind travelling quite a few hours if necessary, as long as the trains are cheap!!), don't mind if it is in Canada or the US, that is full time in August and would be a decent place to go?

Remster 30 #2 January 19, 2009 Quote as long as the trains are cheap!! You're funny! Forget about long distance public transport on North America. Burnaby is the one that comes to mind (a couple hours SW from Toronto), or The Ranch (1-2 hours N of NYC).Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
degeneration 5 #3 January 19, 2009 Well comparing to UK train prices they are quite cheap! The other day I looked into what a NY to Montreal train would cost and it was something like $70 and a 7 hour train ride I think. Would cost a hell of a lot more in the UK. A 2-3 hour ride from Cardiff to London can frequently be equivalent to $100+. Will look into those DZs, cheers.Sky Switches - Affordable stills camera tongue switches and conversion adaptors, supporting various brands of camera (Canon, Sony, Nikon, Panasonic).

Remster 30 #4 January 20, 2009 Quote NY to Montreal train I took that train once... That was enough... I think I got to NY 12 hours late (I kid you not lol). I all seriousness, The North South AMTRACk line from Montreal to NY may be OK, same as the East West Montreal to Toronto. If you are in Montreal, Nouvel Air is a full time DZ in the summer too.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
