We had damn fine food and coffee but missed your presence..but your priorities are in order.
Thanks to Wraith and Simon (Newrider) for coming along, I just hope Brendan didn't scare you too much (that's why we put him at the end). also, well done to everyone for putting in the right cash...meant that the place got a nice tip...which to me is pretty important... and...when I went in again to ask for a serviette to wipe the grease off my fingers (after messing with Simon's bike) the waitress wrote a number down on one and told me to give it to the cute guy on the table. I'll give her a call tomorrow night shall I? Title: Re: Melb Coffee morning.9am 6th Sept at Cavallero in Collingwood Post by: DosVerde on September 06, 2008, 12:37:41 AM I'm not scary, just misunderstood... yes our waitress was lovely. There's no need to call her for me Spider, I can do it myself.
Cavellero has the best porridge I've ever had, good choice [thumbsup] Sorry I had to leave quickly but I was supposed to take my sister and BIL to the airport, but got a message to say they decided to take themselves. So I rumbled along to Ducati City to organise the 12,000k service and I bumped in to the Mad Alf and had a squize at poor Heathers chewed out rear wheel :'( Anyway, as I walked outside I noticed there was a pink piece of paper attached to my bike. Apparently Ducati City were trying to sell it for $15,990, there was slight embarrassment as I walked in telling them they haven't put enough money on my bike. [laugh] Nice to see a few new faces as well, top morning ;D Title: Re: Melb Coffee morning.9am 6th Sept at Cavallero in Collingwood Post by: Spider on September 06, 2008, 02:09:35 AM you reckon that's embarrassing?

Those Ducati City boys will sell anything ;D Title: Re: Melb Coffee morning.9am 6th Sept at Cavallero in Collingwood Post by: newrider on September 06, 2008, 03:34:27 AM he he he you guys are funny, was good to meet everyone and talk lots of Ducati stuff, had heaps of fun, then went to my tatt appointment and saw another Ducati rider, asked him if he was on here but he wasn't, so oh well.

Another fine breaky, attending Spider, DosVerde, Wraith, Newrider and Madalf. Many ideas, contacts and Ducati related issues thrown around. Next time we're sitting outside, so we all can admire the Collingwood wildlife...hint hint Spider. Great to meet a more new people, Newrider works with my previous manager!!! Standard operation proceedure is to amdire everyone elses bits before leaving...on their bikes. How does first Saturday of the month sound for breaky, a regular date. And yes I bumped into someone at Ducati City too! Looking into a ride shortly, but not circum-navigating Vic in one move....yes Spider I know, Chum Creek Road. Cherrio all.

Sounds like you had a great morning on Saturday. Spewing that I missed it but had a good camping trip anyway. Also drove along some roads that would be awesome on a bike through areas around Foster, Fish Creek, and Leongatha so if anyone feels like organising ..... otherwise pick a date and I'll get the maps out. Cheers. Title: Re: Melb Coffee morning.9am 6th Sept at Cavallero in Collingwood Post by: wraith on September 08, 2008, 02:33:28 AM Howdy All.
