I had no idea that their were any riders in Sydney. No one really gets into it alot. So stoked to hear that some ripers are riding the Opra House garage, Sickest think I have heard in a week.

Let's have a board meeting on thursday night! Meet at Redfern station at 6 or Market City (Hay st near the tram line) shortly after!

jb_ · 06-11-2008, 04:19 AM

It's a go! and we have 8+ ppl by the looks of things

A couple of people are free around 4-5. so i might leave work a bit earlier.

I'm visiting the area for a couple days, beginning on tuesday.
Anything I should check out near the Travelodge Wynard area? (intersection of York and Margaret streets)
I'd just like to take a push around during the morning sunrises before I actually have to play music in the festival...

- darling harbour area, hyde park, and circular quay, all 3 are nice smooth areas for cruising around
- in darling harbour there are also some nice banks in front of the exhibition centre.
- pyrmont bridge
- martin place
- macquarie st, heading north from bridge st towards the opera house. big empty hill (only the odd taxi or tour bus).
- the opera house carpark (the entrance is just above the roundabout at the northern end of macquarie st). also known as the 'spiral of dreams'.
- 6 level carpark just west of the entertainment centre (harbour st and hay st).

the whole city centre is a skateboarder's dream. pavement quality, whether on the road or sidewalk, is top notch throughout.

if you're free thursday night, we're having another session.

Skating around Darling Harbour/Cirqular Quay/Hyde Park/ the carpark behind the entertainment center is really fun. Just watch out on the 3rd floor for the freaky security guard woman/person.

bump....
did you get any skating in bagelbum? the weather was kinda crappy last week.

bagelbum · 06-28-2008, 01:13 PM

I hit up a bunch of spots in the quay, opera house carpark, and the gardens near the government house.

That carpark is awesome...and I don't know about you, but the weather was pretty nice.

jb_ · 06-29-2008, 03:37 AM

are you still in sydney? shame if you're not, if you thought the weather was good then, it's way better now

skating again this thursday night. and the crew continues to grow. one of the dudes has designed a mad logo and prepared some t-shirts featuring it too

Bugs · 06-29-2008, 04:31 AM

Haha, I have the shirt and will be there on Thursday night

leadfoot · 06-30-2008, 05:59 PM
