This is right up my alley. A protest that involves cafes and coffee. Who's in? http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...post1129519804 Good social protest, take a whole carpark space, go have a nice breakfast and a catch up. So, who is keen? We can coordinate where we park up and go have a BFTP social breakfast somewhere nice. Get into town early, score the premium parking and catch up with the brave boys who made it to Welly, and maybe buy them a coffee for their legendary efforts against the man.
i would be in but i am off to Melbourne for a well earned break......make it a good one...hope the weather is good as it always helps with the turnout!!
Man you Auckland guys are a bunch of hardarses Actually it is a really good idea just don’t tell any Southerners I said so...
Yeah, and it is just the Auckland thing to do, very little effort- ie; park up and have breakfast and a coffee- protesting complete, and go home. This could be the least amount of oil Gina will spew on a ride Plus I may even convince 'er indoors to come along on the pretence of taking her out to a lovely meal, and hopefully she will pay for it All the best for your trip cmoore, primo place to go too! Are you going to the island?
what i took from that thread is that that guy maha may have an issue with EARLY MORNING STARTS, lol, so i'm not alone in that but a very good idea indeed. not sure if there is enough time though to pull people together to make a noticeable presence?? would need at least 50 bikes to take the main carpark area...
I know where you live Mr Sleepy... You don't want a wake up call do you? Horses heads are not that easy to get hold of this time of the year, well not fresh ones anyway. 8.30 is not too bad is it? You can do it! Best thing about it is we can get a couple of short blacks into you pretty much straight away Let's call it BFTP Social Breakfast and Run, the bikes will do the protesting for us. The run can be decided over a hearty (or lettucey) breakfast if the weather plays ball on the day.
thanks Dogyiti...nah.....but i will be doing the ned kelly tour...up to beechworth....the rest of the time will be spent getting dragged around melbourne cbd........looking forward to the coffee though, i hear it is good...
Not just the coffee, the food's really good too, they have a good amount of immigrants from all over the world, food selection is mind boggling. Went there plenty of times for work, so did not get to do much other than stuff my face on the company credit card
Dodgyiti Not just the coffee, the food's really good too, they have a good amount of immigrants from all over the world, food selection is mind boggling couldn't agree more! can't wait for my next visit to the cake shops in st kilda
Dodgyiti, I know a guy who knows a guy who works in a place where horses heads arrive daily, getting "one" should'nt be a problem, was there anyone else needing a wakeup call!??? There are two bikes going from this household. I'm ringing more people tomorrow, come on folks a big BFTP Presence would be appreicaied , remember Mom is one of ours and any protest is good business right now.
Adelaide is similar. Probably not quite as crammed full of restaurants but they also had dozens of Street parties each year, where a block or two of streets were closed off to cars. People from the neighborhood and local businesses, pubs etc organised a variety of bands/musicians/entertainers, Merchandise and an amazing array of international food stalls. Great way to spend a day and night..... PARRRRRRRTAY
I have done the rounds tonight to inspire my non inter web mates to come along on Sunday. Drank a cup of coffee at each place so a late night and much peeing to follow
Are we going to see Baz on Sunday croc, or am I gonna have to check him out over a your place? Good to catch up on Sunday caseye, I'm there rain or possibly just showers. Can we please employ the BFTP Guru for a long range forcast on Thursday night?
I'll be there
