Go there and forward to Casenuove (look for the signs!). After 500 meters you'll get to a traffic light (on the left there's a gas station), turn right (signs for Vecchia trattoria or Campo prove Pirelli). Once you get to the Vecchia trattoria, get down to the Campo prove (trial area of Pirelli), it's about 100 meters, and the follow the road heading in the woods.

Porto d'Adda beach
pretty well-known bear place, where many reunions and parties take place when set up by Orsi Italiani (http://www.orsiitaliani.com).. For infos about the dates of these things going on you'd better ask them... To get to the beach, instead, just follow the indication for Cornate d'Adda, a small town close to Milan, and afterthat go ahead for Santa Maria della Rocchetta. There you can visit the small church but it's much better to follow the naviglio (channel) on your left which will bring you yo a decadind building. From there walk 5 minutes. You'll find a "dangerous waves" signal. Turn on the street on the right and you are on the bears beach in a few minutes. On the beach you can take off whatever clothes you like, where you can meet, do, say and kiss everyone! You can find full info about this nudist and cruising beach on http://www.orsiitaliani.com site, and thanks to Giambattista!!
Idroscalo a Segrate
A friend living there: "... going ahead after the Idroscalo entrance and after the two round crossroads, straight ahead. After the last round crossroads, it's 800 meters, you'll find TULIP Computers, turn left to the road that leads you behind Walker Siliconi. It's a nice place where you'll find everything, from the trucker to airport personnel, to the big daddy... At every hour!!! Also, when you get to TULIP Computer, if you instead turn right and go to the end of the road and then to the left or the right, you'll find lots of truckers impatiently waiting; if you're their tipe they'll let you know that without waiting!!!"

TRAP - Exit "BS Ovest" on Autostrada A4 Milan-Venice, follow the signs for the Dogana and the flow of cars heading there. It's a disco recently open, finally with a nice look and not too much fashion, bears welome. It's "carved" inside a big industrial building. There's a huge dark room, with a central hall where you'll get to see some xxxrated movies. The dark room spreads upstairs and it's surely the main reason for many to get there. The relax rooms seem like electoral cabins, but there's a lot going on and something's there for all... It's a place that from time to time sets up bear-leather mixed evenings. Music's good.
