Zodiac Adult Bookstore

Zodiac is your typical adult bookstore. It has a huge video rental area (VHS and DVD - Gay, Bi, Striagh, Fetish, Trans, Everything) that's very current. The other half of the interior is devoted to magazines and toys. No real crusing goes on inside however it's a good bet that if you catch someone's eye in the video stacks, he'll know about the cruising outside.

The guide

Where exactly

Take I-70 to the Alum Creek exit. The store is on Alum Creek Drive about 1/2 mile south of the I-70 offramps. Car cruising goes on behind the building in the parking lots and on the industrial park access roads behind the store. Cross street: Near 70 E/W onramps

Cruisiest spot: UPDATE:*brThe best time to cruise inside during the week is after 4pm. Also the back room where the VHS tapes are is a good place to get a quick encounter.br**br*Behind the store, down Alum Industrial Road.

When to go

9pm - 12am

Etiquette

UPDATE: There is a camera but it doesn't view the entire room (you will understand if you go in that room). Also there are no cameras outside on the lot (which is the safest place outdoors). The monitors up front do not display the back room. And the staff is extremely uninterested, of what's going on. This is pretty much just a car cruising spot. Keep your windows down if you have tinted windows.

Safety

The staff is friendly but they watch the video monitors closely which prevents any indoor play. There's one camera aimed at the parking spots adjacent to the buidling but it's only on about 50% of the time and it doesn't cover the access roads. Keep your wits about you. I've seen a helicopter fly over with the big search lights on but that was a while back (much closer to 9/11)
