Bus from Pikonlinna to Ruutana daily?

[tash]

Just looking at the Kangasala area, and wondering if it is possible to catch a bus from Pikonlinna to Ruutana for work each day? are there any bus services for these areas?

Wrong city. Kangasala is near Tampere.

Bus service is usually quite limited, when talking about smaller towns. That route link is done by someone probably not affiliated to Väinö Paunu Oy.

I keep trying to pm you but it says you don´t exist!

My eldest cycled from Ruutana to Kangasala many times when he was 5, so it is a pretty easy route From Ruutana all the way to Kangasala (including the road off to Pikkonliiina...) is the most wonderful, nonstop cycling path. Even in winter it is bearable, but there is one bit in the middle for a couple of km without street lights, but the route is used daily by many walkers, rollerbladers & cyclists. Buses between Ruutana & Kangasala are are real problem. NONE from June till school starts again mid august. But in term time, a couple in the mornings, before 9 if I remember, & last one to kangasala leaving Ruutana around 4pm if I remember. I would bike it instead, as it´s not cheap on Paunu. definitely easy hitching a lift both ways though).
Allie, still here...

Ditto, cycling in winter rules! It's the autumn/spring that are crap (latter literally..).
