There are also signs on Alexandrina Drive saying no parking on the road between the rdbt and Hopetoun circuit. I bet there are a lot of cars parked at the yacht club too.

My suspicions are confirmed. The Harrier is still parked out the front of the bike cage (had to pop over to JGB for a meeting).lobstermash wrote:I could be wrong, but that looks suspiciously like the JGB bike cage (Department of the Environment), which is usually quite full regardless... As is our bike cage at 33 Allara St.
I'd be curious to see the bike cage at the Department of Employment, which was all but empty during a 2-week secondment in mid-Autumn.

Lots of bikes commuting, including an electric fold up bike that foiled my plans of an easy cruise (must...catch...small bike...)
Also, motorbikes galore at any government building by the looks.

Might be worth another cruise past tomorrow, to see how our nations most talented public servants deal with the new obstacle

EDIT: Well, that was disappointing... Full of cars and not a single orange envelope on a wiper blade

Aww man, I didn't get to drive by. To be fair, the signs were pretty ambiguous... I'd be upset if I got stung there (something about a sign having to be within 20m comes to mind).lobstermash wrote:Spotted the signs this morning. I doubt most of the people that still parked there did. I think I'll go home via Yarra just to see the cars with decorated wipers...

I guess fortune favors the brave. I think the main concern was on Wednesdays anyway, when boat trailers would be wanting to launch for the twilight sailing races. Anyone see some orange flavored windscreens today?
