Title: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: goldFiSh on January 02, 2009, 03:06:43 AM Cmon people, let's not let our DMF / DML reputation down when it comes to showing our OS guests a good time!
Scott aka Slowpoke(san) is visiting our friendly city and is about to be shit bored with the standard tourist stuff, so it's up to us to help him out. I'm thinking of a get together perhaps tomorrow night or maybe a Sunday lunch thing? A ride may be harder to organise in the short time frame (and I don't know if he's come prepared with gear) but hey it's worth a try. Who's up for it? Post up and lets get organised! Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Dockstrada on January 02, 2009, 03:14:13 AM what you got in mind gold fish ??? May be up for lunch on Sunday [thumbsup]
Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: goldFiSh on January 02, 2009, 03:35:11 AM well if he's got riding gear and we can find a bike, perhaps lunch at the Robo pie shop!
if not, perhaps something in town or easy traveling from the cbd. Suggestions welcome! Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Dockstrada on January 02, 2009, 03:42:18 AM I have no rideable bike at the moment :-[

Happy to go to a place convenient for you all....... [thumbsup] Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: goldFiSh on January 02, 2009, 04:01:23 AM I have no rideable bike at the moment :-[ wtf, that's pretty funny considering your current stable! where's the smart? Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: goldFiSh on January 02, 2009, 04:05:03 AM OK, so we have Nick Vince and Trev OK for Sunday lunch.
Someone needs to get in contact with Sydmonster, as he rarely checks the board. Melvin will be working I assume. Matty's OS and big's away until Monday Jukie and Betty, where are youse, and the rest of you bunch in and around Syd. It'll be a good excuse for a get together. Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Betty on January 02, 2009, 04:11:22 AM I have no rideable bike at the moment :-[ What??!! :o 620 ? [cheeky] ;D Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Betty on January 02, 2009, 04:22:45 AM Jukie and Betty, where are youse, and the rest of you bunch in and around Syd. It'll be a good excuse for a get together. We are expecting guests up here over the weekend ... I'll discuss it with the Boss in the morning Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: slowpoke13 on January 02, 2009, 06:51:24 AM I got gear. Helmet, jacket, boots, and jeans hanging and ready. But, if no ride is feasable, I'm happy hanging out and drinking.
I left a MSG with Sydmonster. He came by here and left me a MSG. But I was down at fortune of war hitting on a bartender. Scott Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke?

[thumbsup] there you go vince, you're sorted. Now to just get a ride for pokey... I've PM'd him with some rental options, but it's pretty pricey to do that, and it's pretty short notice. Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Dockstrada on January 02, 2009, 12:56:38 PM wtf, that's pretty funny considering your current stable! where's the smart? Smart's buerried under all the desmo parts,heaps of boxes, a big roll of bubble wrap and a 620 monster almost impossible to get out. plus i didnt pay for the rego this year exp: October 08 cant see my self riding it any more. Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Jukie on January 02, 2009, 02:16:00 PM We are expecting guests up here over the weekend ... I'll discuss it with the Boss in the morning yeh will have to see what are guests are doing, but we will keep you guys up to date with that. Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: goldFiSh on January 02, 2009, 04:45:57 PM I've just tried to get in contact with Scott without any luck. So unless we get something sorted regarding a hire bike in the next few hours (pretty unlikely), it'll be a lunch food and drinks get together...
Given it looks to be a nice day, I was thinking the pub at Watsons Bay say around 12.30pm? http://www.watsonsbayhotel.com.au/ (http://www.watsonsbayhotel.com.au/) and the menu: http://www.watsonsbayhotel.com.au/8048650/watsons-bay-hotel-main-menu.htm (http://www.watsonsbayhotel.com.au/8048650/watsons-bay-hotel-main-menu.htm) not the cheapest, but not Doyles either... I'd suggest taking the ferry from Circular Quay. There's one that leaves circular quay at 12.10 that gets there around 12.30. http://www.sydneyferries.info/timetables/watsons-bay.htm (http://www.sydneyferries.info/timetables/watsons-bay.htm) Alternatively, you can ride on down through the eastern suburbs for a little subdued suburban twisty action. ;D (but watch out for the [leo] ) Post up if you can make it. It would be good to get a crowd together! goldFiSh, Broni and Nemo will be there [thumbsup] Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Big T on January 02, 2009, 08:26:41 PM Big T will be there...... [thumbsup]
Might even ride the sugar Monster.... [moto] :o Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: slowpoke13 on January 02, 2009, 09:19:16 PM I'm in... :)
But the time you listed is for a weekday ferry, no? The 11:45 from quay should get there at 12:15 (I think). I think I might take an early ferry so I can walk around a bit. If you guys want a morning ride and meet me there, I'll keep myself busy. Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Jukie on January 02, 2009, 11:48:39 PM Hey Slowpoke
it looks like me and betty will be there, not sure whether we will ride or drive, have to see what the weather will do in the morning [thumbsup] Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Betty on January 03, 2009, 01:15:30 AM Any of you Sydney mob know what the parking situation is like in the vicinity?
Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Betty on January 03, 2009, 01:28:58 AM Oh yeah, are we meeting somewhere Trev?

Post by: goldFiSh on January 03, 2009, 02:02:48 AM Any of you Sydney mob know what the parking situation is like in the vicinity? No problem with parking there, heaps available... Basically you are going all the way to the gap on the south head, then down to the water. Title: Re: [SYD] - Who's in town and wants to meet up with Slowpoke? Post by: Big T on January 03, 2009, 02:47:14 AM Oh yeah, are we meeting somewhere Trev? Wouldn't know where we are going otherwise.
