Monthly Coffee night runs PERTH
« on: October 16, 2013, 01:04:55 PM »
For all those Perth folk out there.

I would like to see if anyone is interested in doing a regular evening coffee run into Fremantle and possible other locations since the weather is getting warmer again.

We could aim for the first Tuesday of the month if this suits everyone?

Meet at a central location say outside of Supercheap/Repco in Atwell/Jandakot at 7pm for a 715pm departure towards Fremantle.

Coffee in Fremantle via Coogee, then do a casual ride through the streets that's on the southern side of the river out towards the old Raffles Hotel, then take off from there.

Used to do this with a local group a few years ago that no longer exists, so would love to get this happening here.

Any interest ?

A good idea, but no good for me. I'm up early for a ride to Jkot for a 0630 start, then off again at 1500 to get home around 1600, and usualy in bed by 2030. Besides, I would have to battle the traffic again to go back to Jkot..

I need my beauty sleep, really i do..

Sounds great to me. I do a similar thing with a bunch of mates every second Friday during Summer.

Count me in  :thumbsup

Yeah please pencil me in as I don't seem to be able to attend any RTE events on weekends due to that never ending problem called work.

Wife goes to fat club every Tuesday leaving me at home on my own (sob).

Bike is getting a bit rusty and dusty in the shed due to lack of use.

Sounds like an idea.

Does it have to be a Tuesday though? I'm like Ray, I'm up at 04:30 Monday to Friday and living out in Midland, I wouldn't be getting home until close to Wednesday.

Great feedback thanks guys.  Should we perhaps look at doing this on a Friday, Sat or Sunday night instead?

Any night is out for me,  about a 4 hr round trip is over the top.

I'd be keen on this. Even if it moves (date or location - alternating north/south perhaps), as long as there was sufficient notice.... anything for a ride!

Bummer it doesn't suit some of you, but for the rest there seems to be some slight interest with this.

Also could do a run from the meet point via Fremantle through to Hillarys along the coast every so often as well.  Used to enjoy that route.

How about we kick it off for a Hillarys run then, with a slight adjustment to the meet point to make it easier to find and easy for a fuel top up.

When: Tuesday 3rd of December, meet 7pm for a 715pm departure
Where: BP on Beeliar Drive, Success (near the Cockburn gateway shopping centre)
Route: Fremantle, then coastal route up to Hillarys for coffee, then back down towards Freo on the way home.

Hope some of you can come, will be great to get a few ST's out for the evening.

If your interested, please respond with your interest below. 

Cheers

Has there been any changes for this ride, is it still on and if so any idea where we will finish up.

North of the river is a new country to me.

Sure is Trevor, happy to change the route and destination based on suggestions at the meet point, we'll chat about it there, but original plan to head up to Hillarys, have a bite/drink then ride back down towards Freo, then South St, you could head back from there, as I'll hit the freeway to head back to Rockingham.

ETA in Hillarys would be about 745-8ish,  Glen you could catch us on the coastal route up if you want?

Who else is keen?

Trevor - confirmed
Phil - confirmed
Glen - possible
Wombat - confirmed
BigTed ??

Anyone else ? sorry for the late reply have been under the pump at work.
