<p>I am going to be dorming in Anacapa and it is pretty near the campus, so I was wondering if I will be needing a bike. Would a longboard be sufficient?</p>
<p>santa barbara is going to be a pretty large campus. it might get a little tiring to only have a longboard.
you never know, you might get a class thats way across campus.
id say a longboard is sufficient, but i think a bike would definitely come in handy and maybe even be a bit easier on you.</p>
<p>ohh okay. thanks for the reply. its gonna suck transporting a bike from nor cal.</p>
<p>You could always wait until you got to SB to buy the bike at a local store. There is a bike shop in IV, and a nearby Kmart. You could then sell the bike at the end of the school year if you didn't want to take it back with you to norcal, but that would probably mean spending more money in the end, but it's up t you whether or not you want the convenience of owning the bike only when you need it.</p>
<p>I suggest getting a bike. You could have a class that isn't on campus, but everyone's schedule is different. My math 3a class is located in IV Theatre, which is in... you guessed it, IV. There's no way I could get there on a longboard from my previous class in my ten minute break. </p>
<p>You can also use it to ride to the nearby market place.</p>
<p>thanks bobo... i think that was the longest read all summer.</p>
<p>you def need a bike...i live in norcal and i just took the tires off and it fit pretty well</p>
