I suggest that we pool the shoes in cities. Anyone else in Sydney
with some? If not I'll send them over alone.

Luverly. Beerwolf <--- cool name 🙂

Everyone/anyone can email me domDOTsansomATgmailDOTcom for my postal
address etc.

Whoever's organising the "combined post" contact me so I can arrange to
pay for postage.

If you guys ever need anything from Fiji just holla! And if you're ever
get over here look me up... there's always a spare bike (road or MTB)
avaiable for a ride.

Llama's dropping his stuff off tonight to me at the Blackburn
clubrooms (Melbourne), so I can send over at least 2 pairs of shoes.

My dad was just in Fiji last week, shame, I could have sent 'em over
for free!

Hope he had a good time. There's some pretty good rates for flights and at the hotels at the moment, on account of the little coup we had before Christmas.

Eternally grateful for the shoes.
cheers

Hey Dom,

rummaged through the detritis of my biking life and found a pair of :-

• Time Elan Road shoes in size 46 ( good solid shoes with plenty left)
  
• Look floating Cleats (near new) and
  
• Look ARC pedals ( in good shape).
  

happy to send over direct to you at my cost.

send me a PM with your addy.

These will fit one of the guys perfectly, he only has flat pedals at the moment.

Cheers

And the first pair of shoes has just arrived!

Thanks rooman 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄 😄

To all the Melbourne crew... the box of shoes and stuff arrived this afternoon. Great stuff guys... you are amazing!!!!!! Update on some of our cyclists. Four of them competed in New Caledonia Sunday before last. ALL got PBs. One broke the Fiji mens Olympic distance record... by THREE minutes and our only female knocked 20mins off her PB and is only 8mins outside the Fiji Womens record (only her second Olympic distance Tri)... they all say thanks for the support.

Any news from Sydney? Zebee?... anyone?

No problem... I've got a few to keep us going. When you're ready. 🙂
I think beerwolf is trying to make contact for a pick up/drop pff.

Aah geez - my memory is like a sieve these days. (has cost me a lot of money to get it in this shape!)

Zebee - can I post these shoes to you? It'd probably be easier for me, and cost me less than driving to you. PM me.

Apologies for the brain-fade Dom. :o

gm

Zebee, I emailed you about my Carnacs.
I too can post them, if that's easier for you.

Umm.....If Zebee has retracted the offer of being the "mule" for the Sydney shoes, I can do it. Just PM me and i'll tell you where to send them.

yeah, do that, I can't see me getting it together any time soon. I
might be able to drop my pair off to someone else though.

Rgr that. Ok, anyone in Sydney who would like to donate some shoes to Dom's club - please PM me and i'll tell you where to send your shoes. If you want your $2 (ish) postage refunded, please don't bother PMing me! I'll give you all 7 days to get your [censored] together - after that i'm sending mine solo.

Dom - can you please PM me also and give me the postage address for the shoes.

I PMed you, but it was the first time I'd ever used it. Dunno if I did it
right, anyhow the forum seems to be playing up right now (for me). My email

No shoes but I've got a few sets of SPD MTB pedals in that can go if Dom
is interested.

Parbs - who tends to destroy his shoes from far too much walking in them

I do not understand this PM stuff. If someone can email me with their
snail mail address I will send a pair.

Check my address carefully

LOL....good one...Zeebee
Prepared to admit in a past life, I lived there for 20years, but orginal choice was made for me by parents. It was good, when I could choose to leave and I did asap.
Don't mind a visit (occcasionally) especially when paid to do it...
You all have my sympathy...but dont' come to Melb...didnt anyone tell you... it always rains here and there is nowhere to ride a bike, the coffee is lousy and you can't get a good fitting outfit or a decent wine, and the cheese is just plain ech...the closest snow is two and a bit hours away...two hours!!! sheesh... and you cant walk across the Yarra anymore, it no longer flows upside down...I tell you all those well meaning friends were so wrong.

I live in Sydney from necessity (job + most of family), but have family in
Melbourne so spend a bit of time there too. On the whole I prefer
Melbourne, but I prefer Tasmania to both. Though the way things are
heading, I think the surviving remnant of Australians will be living on
Macquarie Island, where they try to survive on the pineapples they grow.

gm, got your email, shoes will be in the post Monday.
