How to ride an escalator I came across this phrase in a story book: > It puzzled me because I thought meant 'to connect with (flight/train etc)'. Is this the normal way to talk about getting on/riding an escalator? If not, what nuance does it convey and what would be a more typical verb to use?

People usually say , 8, etc.

is not common, but it would be accepted if one wants to explicitly say (for whatever reason) riding several escalators in succession.
