Me and some friends are going to tiesto tomorrow as well but I don't know if we should use this service. It would be nice to be able to drive to Pacific Colosseum because it is really hard to get to by skytrain from Richmond, and we have a couple girls and I rather them not be cold. We have 6 people and can't fit 1 cab. I read Tachy's post and feels bad if this was a misuse of the service. Maybe one of the event sponsors can shed some light? If it's not OK we will just find our way there and cab back!

Call him direct

EDIT: Call dispatcher, tachycardia! Do not try to reach drivers via e-mail, PM, phone call, etc. Drivers are going to be called by tachy, because he has all the info on who is available, what they can drive, etc. Tachy is the eyes and ears of the operation. edited

It would be a misuse of the service, but damn. Two girls left out in the cold ain't right. Tachy, get one of the other volunteers to drive the guys home and I'll take the two ladies home in my truck that has heated seats and a rear entertainment system............ OK, that sounded weird, LOL.

dbaz 12-30-2011 11:38 PM

i was just gonna suggest mg1 pick up the girls then come back later for the guys but looks like he beat me to it

$_$ 12-30-2011 11:40 PM

Haha no problem, I still appreciate what you guys are doing for the community. And for the record, there are 3 girls ;)

MG1 12-30-2011 11:43 PM

OK, I'm kinda old and two is about all I can handle. dbaz, you can drive the third one home, but I get to pick!

Alatar 12-30-2011 11:49 PM

Not really a part of this, but I'd definitely drive someone home if I had to. I took a nap at 6:30pm and woke up at 10:30pm so I'm fully awake right now. :(

dr.funk 12-30-2011 11:51 PM

Tachy no pick up

you'll have to request a van from the taxi company.

there will be plenty of taxi's after the event, just not sure if any will be vans.

smarv 12-31-2011 02:01 AM

Just wanted to say this is a great idea. I also wanted to suggest that for anybody who plans to drink tomorrow you can also sleep in your car till your sobered up even if it means until the next day (I've done it countless times) and if you have a girl with you, you can always cuddle for warmth :hotbaby: i also keep a warm hoodie and blanket in my trunk because you never know when you could get laid in the back :fuckyea: and thats definitely a cooler story to tell then the one about you loosing your license on new years. I also may need a ride tomorrow from north burnaby/vancouver to south burnaby if i don't end up sleeping in my car all night :sleepingzz: 778-cockdown to the rescue!!

LSF22 12-31-2011 02:19 AM

Prob won't be available anymore on NYE.... due to a couple last min plans... sry guys!!

Hope everyone still stays safe and enjoys responsibility!

Gh0stRider 12-31-2011 11:04 AM

transit is also free

Free fares start at 5 p.m. Dec 31 and go until 5 a.m. Jan 1.

SkyTrain will run usual Saturday schedules with more frequent evening trains and will extend service by approximately one hour on all lines. The last Expo Line train to King George leaves waterfront at 2:20 a.m.; the last Canada Line trains leave Waterfront at 2:05 a.m. (to YVR) and 2:15 a.m. (to Richmond-Brighouse).

Bus service will run usual Saturday schedules with some routes running additional evening/late-night trips after their normal schedules.

MindBomber 12-31-2011 11:13 AM

I cannot guarantee availability to give rides tonight, I'll update this post to confirm later.

Does anyone expect that they'll need a ride in the valley?

Cab drivers always told me that vans arent for extra people, but for people in wheelchairs, etc..and that they all have a 5 person seating limit (including driver)

I just saw this but, I had zero calls last night. I'm not sure what happened, save for you accidentally calling 604 instead

MG1 12-31-2011 12:02 PM

I will be available 15 minutes after midnight. Tachy, you ready? I hope we have some people still on the roster for tonight. We might have to deputize some people on the spot. This thread and chat - put out call for help if it becomes busy.
