In Reply to: Everyone talks about how easy gear is to pick up in Mexico, maybe! But how do you get it across the border? (no msg) posted by Primordial Rage on March 10, 1997 at 20:45:26:
1. go with a little guy, but don't walk in together. you don't want to be seen with each other. You have a bag with lifting clothes in it. your buddy should be a stick. go get your gear and find a place to put all your lifting clothes. give all the gear to your stick friend and stuff your bag full of your clothes, that way it will look like you have something. walk back through but big guy goes first, little guy stays a few people behind. If big guy draws enough attention to himself, little guy gets through home free
2. get an old mountain bike and stuff the shit in the tubes of the frame or in the handle bars. I say a piece of shit bike because you may want to stuff some type of cloth to keep the shit from moving around and you may have to chop the bike up later.
3. (from musclemag) Take a liquor bottle and empty in out. clean it with bleach, let dry overnight, go down buy some shit, shoot it into bottle and walk across
4. same as #2 except bring a inner tube repair kit. have big tires, cut open tires tubes and stuff shit in, fix tube and fill back up with air, carry bike across.
5. use your girlfriend. See #1
6. buy yourself a plane and fly across :)
there are lots of creative ways to get shit. just gotta be creative.
