Melb: Tues 27th, different bikes needed
Came through the ozhpv list. Reply to the email below, not to me.
Hi All, This ride will provide the media with an interesting photo opportunity to help us gain media attention for the festival and challenge. For best effect we need numbers, and the visually broadest range of bikes possible. I'd especially encourage those who can bring along a bike of the following types: speed bikes, unicycle, folders, tandems, tall bikes, long bikes, people carrying, load carrying, vintage bike, or any visually unusual bike. It doesn't have to turn well, the route is deliberately straight. The media seem to be primarily interested in the visual image, speed, difference (and colour). We will assemble on the wide footpath at the state library (cnr Swanston and Latrobe St) by 5pm. (Media photo opportunity.) We will obey road rules and traffic signals and ride along Swanston St the 1km or so to Federation Square. (Media photo opportunity.) The ride will be prefaced by a media release to all major media. Apart from the benefit for promotion this is your chance to be part of a great image of alternative bikes riding en-masse through the main street of Melbourne. Please let me know if you can come and the type of bike you will bring so I can give the media an idea of what to expect. Regards, Alan "Alan, Diane & Eric" |

The list it was on did assume you knew what it was which being a specific list was probably vaguely OK in that venue and less so here. I expect others who have interesting bikes will be happy to show them off with like minded folk. Zebee |

Sorry, Zeebee, but have you been snorting speed bikes again? What the 'ell are you on about? Let me go through that again: The list you were on = this newsgroup? This newsgroup assumed you knew what the newsgroup was which being a specific list was.... Ah bugger it - too hard. Nah, the plot has been lost all round.. I'm going to have a few more drinks and see if makes sense then.. |
