How many miles do you have to drive to bowl?

[comfortably numb]

Whether it's a short drive or a long one, whatever it takes, we need to bowl!! How far do you drive to bowl, and how many minutes does it take you to get there?

[comfortably numb]

About 2 1/2 miles from my home...takes 10 minutes in city traffic.

Trex, when the Mayor hits the lotto, you can hit him up for a $500,000 loan and build a 2-laner in your basement!!!

50 miles

Less than 1/4 mile. I can and have walked there carrying two bags with a total of three balls.

About 10 miles for my local, so usually about 20 mins for me..

for me 5 min 2 miles the local Station Casino on my side of town

The local bowling centers are sub par so I drive about 60 miles one way to bowl. Since I got my new ball, I dont get to bowl as much as I like because of the quality of the lanes here. Plus I get much better pro shop support there in the place I travel to.

10 minute bike ride!!!! Eye of the tiger plays in my head as I ride there. like a champ

30 miles each way. Takes about 35-40 minutes to get there.

Mom, you know we love this game! :)

I was driving 50 miles, but I was ask to bowl in a league closer to home, so I quit the 50 mile league!! :)

Now I can save a whole lot of gas!!! :)

The alley that I bowl on takes about 5 minutes to get there with no traffic. When I leave during traffic hours, it takes 20-30 minutes

And I always thought saying how long it takes to drive somewhere was a New England thing.

Although there are a few houses closer to me, I drive 30+ miles to bowl. Carolier which hosts the US Open is about half the distance from me. Whenever I can find a new job, I'll probably join a league there as well.

You know HunterRunsIt has it made. 10 min bike ride, tunes on the way and from opening till 5 weekdays, $1.00 a game.
And It is a nice set of lanes.

I have 15 miles one way to a much less quality lane, that cost a lot more. When I go to his house, it is 70 miles round trip.

I don't think HunterRunsIt will be peddling it much longer though. Maybe till January.:p;):cool: Drive safe, the life you save may be mine!:p

Thankfully just 15 mins (about 8 miles) for league play. Being Maine though and pretty rural traveling away from the local center can really start to add the miles up.

[bdpeters]

The centers I go to are between 3 and 5 miles. so usually 15 or 20 minutes.

i am one of the lucky ones. i bowl less than a mile from my lanes. could take up to 5minutes if i hit traffic....:rolleyes:
