APR´ES IN NEW YORK
Mark has been hosting an apr´es on the Upper East side for three seasons. He used to ride with hard boots and bindings and race, so he appreciates a properly waxed board.
Here's the deal: Go to Bailey's Corner Pub (85th and York- www.facebook.com/baileyscorner) at 2 AM- 4 AM on Saturday or Sunday morning, bring your board or skis and bring an old lift ticket. The lift ticket gets you a 2 for 1 drink special (for the whole ski season). Then give Mark $25 and he will tune your board or skis and give you a PBR tall boy.
Then get on the Emilos bus (85th and York- http://www.emiliosskishop.com/index.html) that goes to Hunter, Okemo, Mt. Snow, Stratton, or Windham. Or get on the Homage bus (86th and York- http://www.homagebrooklyn.com/) that goes to Hunter, Mt Snow, Okemo, or Stratton. Go to sleep, and wake up on the hill, and go ride your freshly waxed equiptment.
If you want a more traditional Aprés go to Bailey's on Tues. from 7 PM- 9PM. It's the same deal on Tues, but they also feed you. I had a banging pulled pork sandwich. I have also heard that they have a corned beef master in the house.Mark is also a photographer (www.facebook.com/sweeneymarkd). These lovely ladies are his. He shoots in the studio and in the snow. You can find him at Hunter ripping big turns.
