On my to-do list for this summer: Try to get into the Prides Corner Drive-in on my bicycle.
What could be better on a hot summer night? A seven mile dusky ride out past Riverside. With a six-pack and a blanket. A first-run double-feature for $7. A late-night ride home. It sounds perfect!
But will it fly with the ticket taker? I don’t see why not. They charge per person, not per car. There are plenty of kids roaming around – it’s not like you need a vehicle to be safe in the lot. The sound is broadcast over an FM station, so a small radio is all you need to tune in.
Has anyone tried this? Am I dreaming?
Our local advocacy group sponsored a series of ride in days a few summers ago… I’ll have to see if this can be jump started. Sounds like a fun way to go – assuming you’re not sitting behind someone idling with the AC on…!
