    i have some info... sunday 30th august city to surf... perfect time to get some speed with roads blocked off to traffic :) underwood avenue and oceanic drive in the floreat city beach area will be blocked off for roughly the whole morning :P and if any of you are familiar with underwood avenue then you will be licking your lips, if you dont know it check it on google earth, i reckon you could probably get 80-100 kms down it easy, go to the city to surf website and see if you can recognize any other roads which are worth some urethane, whos keen?

  • Premium Member

    Ian McGlynn

    rock up at the perry lakes skate park i reckon, 10:00 sounds like a good time or earlier if people want

  • Premium Member

    Ian McGlynn

    yeah sounds good. lets just meet right in the city though. maybe at the traino?

  • Premium Member

    Raine Kent

    yeah but it might be a problem if your driving a car because a lot of roads will be closed, but catching the train sounds good, then we could always skate along the route to the different hills

  • Premium Member

    Raine Kent

    malcolm street is gonna be shut down too, thats the one that runs past parliament house and leads into st georges terrace :P that should be fun to try, its pretty steep too

  • Premium Member

    Ian McGlynn

  • Premium Member

    Ian McGlynn

  • David Price


  • Premium Member

    Ian McGlynn

    yo meet at 8 instead. that way we can start with all the runners.
  • brodie

    my arm is fuckin killin me, i just put betadine on it aaaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!!!

  • Premium Member

    Raine Kent

    what u do to it brodie? 9oclock at perth train station? i think we can recognoize skaters from non skaters

  • Premium Member

    Raine Kent

    i reckon eight is too early
  • David Price

    I was thinking going up to oceanic dr around bold park, cos if we get there 8 or nine the runner or walkers wont be there, where as in the city there will be heaps of people... but they have the marathon this year that starts at 6:30 so they will probably be up around then :(

    anyway jsut a few thoughts...
  • brodie

    new otangs = not so much slide = personal meeting with the road
  • David Price

    brodie :( - another day of work? can u post a photo of the damages?
  • David Price

    so what the final word for sunday? 9am at perth traino?

  • Premium Member

    Ian McGlynn

    "i reckon eight is too early" slack dude!

    yeah brodie got made piss on his first run...then his second... it was gnar.

    well i was thinking 8 at the traino. i was kinda wanting to skate the whole thing, so it would be cool to start with all the runners. whether we will be able to or not is a different story. but i say we give it a shot. if it doesn't work out we can always start from somewhere else.
  • brodie

    ooooo it was terrible jonny, there was skin and blood flyin everywhere.....
    8 @ the traino? done.
  • David Price

    8am at the traino rodger, fuck gonna need an early night
