Have not done the re-con visit to find a suburb, but I have been told to look into Highgate Hills area...west end, kangaroo point etc etc. Its funny when you have to go somewhere new, every person you ask tells you a different suburb to look into, might just get a large map and shoot a dart into it....where it lands is where I will live...
The idea of having a club (team fresh) with a good focus on social outings as well suits me, as coming up knowing no-one is a bit of a worry.
BEERBAY bike would be good, but I have been living in Singapore for the last two months, and only got back a week ago....will send a PM.
