Hi Guys,
So, have ALL the interstaters made travel/visitng arrangments with the various Melb dudes?
CoastVL: i think you have your folk0-in-laws car to use?
So, i'm happy to still take oldschoolroy & osama to/from the show & swapmeet if they need transport....
I'm hoping anyone else out there is offereing a ride too, we should be helping our insterstate bro's a little you know....
Wait till next year when us Melb guys have to goto 'wherever' the hospitality might be returned ????
Think about it ........

Mr.BMX
Oct 29 2005, 08:21 AM
CoastVL:
Mt.Pleasant rd is like 3 mins form my place,
So it'll be easy for me to pick yopu up, take you to a skatepark or 10 for a ride if you like (thurs/fri) and also come to my place for a look see if u like....
For the show, i guess we'll just work on a way for you to follow me to the track once i'
ve picked up anyone else that needed a lift for the day.
Same goes for the sunday swapmeet, i can take upto 3 guys in my wagon if you wanna come along.
Osama:
Dunno if anyone has given you directions for the sunday swapmeet? but it'll be only 5 mins from wherever you're staying in St.Kilda (it's 1 min from the Espy, if that helps)

Gday everyone, had a nibble at quicksilverbmx's bike on ebay didn't get it. Didn't want to go to high. I give my quicky away for nothing years ago. Any tips for a newbe on finding a bike? Or is that secret mens business.Will everyone be wearing name tags on Sat or do I look for a group of blokes with gray or on hair?
Nugget
Oct 30 2005, 05:05 AM
That should read gave not give. Spent to much time on bike not enough studying.
COASTY
Oct 30 2005, 05:06 AM
Hair ???
Not a lot left. We'll be the old farts with a beer in our hand! If beers aren't allowed, we'll still be the old farts.
COASTY
Oct 30 2005, 05:12 AM
As for finding bikes. Theres a heap of them out there, you just have to track them down. Ask everybody you know if they have any old bikes lying around. Ask workmates, customers, whatever. I check the tip shop 2-3 times a week too. Pawn shops, vinnies, closing down bike shops. Or you can just buy all you stuff of ebay and the trading post. But you'll pay more usually. Better to find it for next to nothin'.

LOL - I just read this thread - you guys were calling me a tool LOL
Don't worry, I can take it
*sniffle, sniffle*
Yes I have a pink Floval - that's how it came to me.
I'm sure you guys wouldn't complain if one 'fell' into your hands, even if was pink eh
With the Skyway - I was just making a comment in the forum, which is what it's all about, eh.
No offence intended.
It's just my opinion guys, don't cry!
PS - I could be persueded to part with the 24" Pro Class if anyone is interested.
