Dustproof, is it okay if I post this meeting point on other forums?

Would be good if we could get a couple of main points of departure, any nominations for the west and south?

Depending on what some friends do as they may be heading from the hills area will determine if I go from PITS

Cheers,
Nicolas

just read the notes on that url... and had a :shock: when I saw: Note: At this stage only 1 bike per space is allowed to park - If more than one bike is in any one space all the bikes parked will be issued with a fine. Negotiations are proceeding to have that rule suspended for the duration of the protest.

is it really illegal to share a car space?? I always squeeze over to one side so another bike can fit in, and I park perpendicular next to the curb for same reason (bike's length is only as big as width of a car anyways is my line of thought)

I've already nominated myself to be there ridiculously early, no no pre-ride for me. post-ride perhaps though...

Just put a mini compilation of the video reports i saw on the tv tonight (yes i recorded ALL instances of the news this afternoon).
here is the link. If it doesn't work, it's because youtube is still processing the file and it should be up shortly.

Was a fantastic day, just felt a bit odd that everything just came to an end so abruptly after the work-up we had from silly'o'clock in the morning (onsite at 5am for me). I am going to sleep well tonight.
