Hi All,

I've been looking around for a local BUG or the like. I'm not a racer,
I'm a plodder, so I'm not interested in getting involved with club
activities etc. I'd like to do some work on expanding bike route networks
(not necessarily bikepaths) and 'normalising' bike use as transport.
ANyone
know of such a group that's operating in or around Perth?

Cheers,

There are people here in Melbourne who are looking at expanding upon the
Wheels of Justice theme as a bicycle user/advocacy group. This is definitely
looking at the issue of normalisation of bicycle usage. I don't know to what
extent the whole WOJ thing happened in Perth, but it might be worth while
looking at this. Hell, there are a few people from Perth who post here, you
might even wind up generating a useful nucleus. cfsmtb is probably the one
to speak to about this as she'sthe most active and vocal of the Melbourne
group.

YES, I CAN YELL LOUDLY IN A CROWDED ROOM AT GOAT AND STILL BE UNDERSTOOD (yes, that was yelling)

Hmm been thinking about what Mr Resound mentioned at Goat. Yes I'll post that WoJ discussion paper & see what folks think. Now where was that txt doc...

BTW have emailed Plodder off-list.

It's just one of the things we love you for 🙂

Ah, the document search. Always a fun thing. I spent ages today looking
through textbooks for an article that I absolutely KNEW I'd read, only to
eventually remember that it was actually on a website (which I'd bookmarked,
thankfully)

On 2005-09-11, Resound (aka Bruce)
was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea:

I've on many occasions thought that I had seen a figure somewhere that
would be useful for my thesis or whatever, and tried to search for
that figure, only to come to the conslusion that the data was just a
bit *too* high quality, and it must have been a dream. This has
happened so many times that I am scared.

Also, who here gets deja vu from their dreams?

This would be the dream that makes absolutely no sense for about 5 years
until suddenly the déja vu hits and you're left wondering just exactly how
linear time really is?
