Anything exciting to do around Nth Ryde? I'm in town for work for the next few weeks and keen to do something other work the whole time I'm here....

It's pretty central so you can get around most places from there. Will you have a car? What time will you have free? Weekends? Nights? How much money have you got to spend? :)

No car as I'm walking distance to work. I'm here until Wednesday this week, then back again next Monday for the full week. I'll fly back to Tas on Friday's and back again on Mondays for a few weeks.....

Fuck all to do around Ryde in general.you got the RSL club there, or top ryde shopping centre. But you are 20 minutes from the city, plenty to do there :)

I'd love that time free with no commitments I'd be going to gigs, cafes, restaurants, shows, the more "alive" night spots, here's a few ideas:

-If you're into music pickup a "Drum Media" from a guitar/cd store etc for gig guide.
-Rock gig at the Annandale Hotel
-China town for dinner one night we like a place called Kung Fu Ramen near Market City.
-Arthouse hotel, jazz, djs, tapas etc
-Opera Bar under the walk bridge side of the opera house
-Auburn for a good middle eastern feed - Mado cafe, or bankstown but a longer trip
-Kings Cross if you want trendy bars, nightclubs etc, or gay bars :o
-Bondi at night on a warm night, and during the day if you get a chance.
-Catch the ferry to Manly from circular quay, best around sunset.
-Church St Parramatta for a million restaurants and cafes... can catch the ferry here too.
-The Basement near Circular Quay - cool venue with cool gigs, blues, jazz, latin, etc
-King St Newtown - funky young area.
-Strathfield for a good korean feed.
-Walk/Jog from Bondi beach heading south as far as you want until you need to turn around it's beautiful.
-That hotel in annandale on the corner of johnson st and parramatta rd for blues, can't remember its name and I used to play there :lol:

the only exciting thing to do in North Ryde is knowing when you leave it
