Hi Mark

Did you make the most of the sunny weather this afternoon?  I spoke to Rosie yesterday and told her that until third term break Saturday mornings are a no go for me as I have BSF commitments during term.  The GW ride will have to wait until then.  Have you registered for the TDU next January?

Hi Mark

This friend request is unexpected - well thank you :-)
Though your comments have been critical of my view i don't mind that anymore. I am sure other people would wish to ask the same. A fair question is an opportunity to explain something more and that it is not always a negative.

Cheers Steve 

Hi Mark,

Today I received a newsletter from Rachel Sanderson MP. The Autumn 2012 edition which can probably be found at http://rachelsanderson.com.au.  On the last page is an article 'Support for depression sufferers and carers'. You might like to post on your group.

Beyondblue aims to provide clear and comprehensive information about depression and anxiety in their booklets 'A guide to what works for depression' and 'A guide to what works for anxiety disorders'. Copies of the free booklets as well as important contacts fridge magnets are available from our office, or just call and we can post them out to you . . . If you or someone you know is suffering from depression or anxiety, do not ignore it, contact Beyondblue today for a confidential chat on 1300 22 4636.

Hi Mark,

Welcome to Vote For Cyclists. A very active group during the last local council elections, and probably when the next state or federal elections. Still useful to post info because some of the members are now on local councils.

Cheers, Heather

Hi  i missed out on the registration for the bupa ride.So if you had a spare spot that someone couldn't use i would be interested in buying it off them.I would like to do the full distance thanks.

Happy 31st Wedding Anniversary

Dear Mark

Thanks for the welcome.  I decided to join Adeliade Cyclists to join some of the rides. After speaking with Rosie on Sunday you have a busy riding schedule over the next few days. SOG ride, RLC and TDU

Last year ACC held public discussions on its future Integrated Movement Strategy. Repeat that ACC wants to reduce through traffic in the CBD. I suggested that on urban arterial roads with enough space, to replace travel lanes with bus -- cyclist only lanes. The result would be public transport that is faster than private cars, and an incentive to use public transport or active transport of cycling. ACC said that had been suggested for council areas leading into the city. One road that comes to mind is Main North Road, between Gepps Cross and the city.

I do support good cycling infrastructure but feel it will be some time before Australian politicians / authorities have the guts to do it. My AC post got some negative reaction, from cyclists who do not want safer vehicle speeds when cycling, because they want higher speeds for when they do drive. So how to get support from non-cyclists?
