No other locations? I've seen them at Milsons Pt and Chatswood in the past.

That's all the info I read. Given that it was a mail-out by SCC, it wouldn't have included locations outside of SCC area.

I went to a free breakfast in North Sydney (Bradfield Park) last year. Pretty much the same location as the ride to work day breakfast. Not this year then?

Don't know. Ask North Sydney Council about it. My source of info was SCC.

For those who wern't intending to go, the world environment day breakfast has been cancelled for next Thursday 12 June.

Apparently Sydney commuters don't head out in the rain.

True, I didn't see a single other bike on my commute (pior to 7am) to St Leonards this morning. On my after 8am commute to Chatswood, when the weather had improved, I saw one bike.

BTW Adrian, I'm assuming you mean its been rescheduled to the 12th June.

Hmm. Thanks for the tipoff. I rode in today, and completely forgot all about it!

Saw a couple of other riders, but I left really late (8.45) because I had to let the builders in at home.

Next week might be just as wet though...
