There is some talk of it here, personally I think it will cause more problems than do good...
Yeah i have heard it too... But whats $5, its less than a red cruiser or a beer..
Cant wait, easter is always an epic weekend, and this year there is one more day to recover before heading back to work. That equals more stewballs crazness..
Me, take the piss, its not in my nature
To help pay for the weekend I bought a Robe football jumper today.
I reckon I'll set up at the start of the dirt road to 3rd ramp and charge $5. Might get enough for a couple of slabs[}:)]
If it makes things easier for you come and see me, I give you 5
Ah, yes and no, council are pushing for it, think we should be able to get around it, as I cant see them implimenting it before next month!
If it becomes too much of an issue, we can all ride at stonies beach, I've been hitting that heaps lately and due to current weather conditions, its been going off, clean wind, solid swell lines, water is still freezing but you get the picture!

Luke, Head out Kingston road for approx 6 k's and turn left down white metal road.
Noticed you have a crazy fly for sale. Was that you at Torquay a couple of weeks ago and towed an old guys kite back in?
If you are passing through Mt Gambier prior to Friday, Port McDonnell / Nene Valley will be going off. Should be double over head if swell forecast is right.
2 days count down...
Beer is in the fridge getting cold, wetsuits (all 3) are drying, ready to wear, Easter eggs are brought (and eaten)
So what is there to do but wait, until the epicnest begins..
