What a beautiful day to Ride to Work

Oct 14, 2009 10:42

Beautiful and Sunny!
Today is Ride 2 Work Day. As peviously mentioned, I walked home the last 2 Wednesday's along the route I planned to ride. Today I rode to work for the first time, and went a slightly different way as discussed and suggested by a coworker who rides to work frequently ( Read more... )

*clicks* Ooooohhh! I like that calculator, any idea if there's a walking equivalent?

Yes, you're right, with everything you've said, and in reality, it's just something I need to build in to my routine and make it a habit to ride to work as often as possible. If I rode to work every day, I'd save $15.20 every week on bus fairs. And I'm sure once my bike is a regular mode of transport for me, I'd be willing to ride to other places of evenings and over weekends, like to friends places etc which would also save me bus fairs and potentially taxi fares.

I have to remember that Cycling is actually far more convenient than Public Transport. Eventually, I might even include a gym visit in my bike ride as I go fairly close to my work gym (which I am yet to sign up to)

Avenue Q is still on? Darn...

If I'd known that, I'd have taken the girlie this weekend as I'm in Sydney from wed night - Mon Morn...

Yeah, it finishes this Sunday. Tickets are $50 and you can probably still get some, I only bought mine on Monday for tonight! And you're in town from tonight eh? Have fun, leave my town in at least the same state as you found it ;)

Actually, I just checked, def still some tickets available http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=AVENUEQ09

The problem is...

Tonight I get in after 9 pm
thursday night is picking up the girlie from the airport
friday night is dinner with friends
saturday night is dinner at bilsons (tetsuyas cancelled our booking - the evil bastards).
Sunday the girlie goes home....

So no free night, unless the do a matinee session for the little kids? There would be something serene about a bunch of little 6 year olds all singing 'the internet is for porn'...

Went and had a look, they have a 2pm Matinee Saturday and a 3pm Matinee Sunday, who'd-a thunkit?

evildrakey October 14 2009, 04:18:48 UTC

DROOL!!! Do you have a booking website or number???

It's in my comment above, but it's ticketek.com.au search Avenue Q and it's the only NSW venue option!

Glad to be of service!

And with myself, Mistress Acacia, and Mistress Elanor, and Mistress Maree on a 'laurel fabric shopping trip of doom' I very much doubt your town's fabric shops will be left intact...
