During the summer, 1 hour/day, and more on Fridays. That's worth a LOT. During the winter it drops down to 1/2 hour (or so) a day. Also, the ferry motorcycle w/sidecar tickets are 1/2-3/4 the price of car tickets. >Do you have problems with ferry employees who don't >believe your Sparrow is a motorcycle? What about >motorcyclists that you share space with at the front >of the ferry? No problems whatsoever. Usually the bikers joke that I shouldn't really count as a bike since I don't get wet. Then they start asking all the usual questions and looking interested. -- John G. Lussmyer mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Dragons soar and Tigers prowl while I dream.... http://www.CasaDelGato.com
