I'm always too nervous about snakes to go in the middle bit.
we dont have residents/factories to contend with and are just feeding

You may not be aware of this, but human [censored] isn't terribly good for
plants 🙂 You can get away with it at the Kew loop because numbers are
low and there's no real locals to get annoyed about it. There's plenty
of other things going on in the bushland there that is more
controversial anyway.
But, when you have 100+ people, toilet management does become an issue
and I support CCCC's efforts to provide toilet facilities, and enforce
their use.
Quoted message said:Perhaps said factories could open or supply loo's if they are so
concerned 🙄
Why? Why should they have to let a bunch of people in to their
workplaces, to stop said people from pissing on their plants and walls?
If 100 people started pissing in your front garden every week would
you be happy about it? If they [censored] on your wall?
It's very simple really... CCCC provides toilets, and they expect that
riders use them. I really can't see the problem. There's rarely much
of a queue that I've seen (and I've been racing there for a good few
years now). A few [censored] who would prefer to risk the club's
permission to use the course because they're too lazy or stupid to ride
into the carpark and use the portadunnies deserve to get done for it if
they get caught. All we have to do is use the provided toilets. It's
not difficult ...[/QUOTE]
In Brisbane many years ago, there was a suburban cinema (the Boomerang at Annerley???) which only had one gents and one ladies convenience. In the days when double features were shown, there used to be a longish break in the middle of the program, during which time people had a 'comfort break'. There being only 1 toilet for the blokes, many of them lined up for a pee against the corrugated iron fence in the dark along the side of the cinema property. The firemen in the fire station next door got sick of the smell this left so they hooked up a generator to the iron fence. The next time the said theatre patrons relieved themselves against the tin fence.....wallop. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
Far more effective in changing behaviour than a $100 fine I would think.
