yes, limit well and truly reached. ps everyone who doesn’t know that i got lost in clifton hill yesterday and parked at maccas (which by the way is everyone but you and me) is going to think you’re calling me fatty who loves maccas. good one.
Riding in Melbourne is a piece of piss. After going there repeatedly without bikes, when we went over for the Roobaix with our bikes it was freaking awesome. If you can borrow one during your stay, aren’t a complete idiot and can read a map, you’ll be fine. Just don’t expect the main streets in the CBD to be quiet on a Saturday afternoon. We found that out the bad way negotiating Collins street (I think it was).
YEAAAAH! Alright then, I am not sure what people availability is during the day/arvo on Friday, I will be around the city for most of the day on Friday as I arrive in Melbourne at 7am. So I will just be walking around until I can get in my room so I can dump my bag there then I will be returning into the city I guess. If people work in the CBD, then maybe we can meet up somewhere friday arvo for ginger/beer o clock?
Brendan, I just checked out the schedule and we are off by a week where the Habs play the leafs (April 7th!) damnit!
Hey, if someone is willing to loan me a bike… I don’t care if it was twin pink potatoes on a fluro orange frame. If I am on the bike with a few dudes showing me around Melbourne, then I will be smiling from ear to ear no matter what!
Hey Ezy,
How tall are you? My bro has a beater that you’ll probably be able to borrow. Its nothing flash but has two wheels and goes.
If you have time for dirt ride let us know and well try and hook you up with a MTB and show you some trails near Melbs.
Will try to make it out to join you for a pint somewhere too (if that works with mum n bubs)
And thanks for donating to Slink’s ride BTW.
cheers, D
I’m a strapping lad at 180cm! As much as I really appreciate the efforts by everyone, don’t go out of your way to get me a bike. I am going to be travelling pretty light with only carry on luggage, so I think hitting the dirt is out. As much as I would love to hit Buller and You Yangs one day! And I am happy to just walk everywhere, I have feet and they are working at the moment
But I am excited to finally put faces to names and stuff!
The travesty will suit you well, you can put your bag on the rack and ride to your hotel. I’ll even meet you at SX station if you take the skybus and escort you to brunswick.
