Melburn En Masse

For sh1ts and giggles...

Let's face it. Coffee breaks are the new smoko. It's the best excuse to get out of the office and a genuine reason any employer can hardly deny you.

The only problem is sometimes your friends work at the other end of town for a caffeine rendezvous. Or maybe your favourite cafe isn't the one at the bottom of your building. Or both.

If you own a bike but it's at the bottom of your building in secure storage, take one of the 18kg BLUE bells for a short trip this THURSDAY 31 March.

Take a cobbled lane way en route as part of your Melburn Roobaix 2011 preparations.

Free coffee, prizes, and hopefully a laneway FULL of Melburnians and those BLUE bikes. What a sight to see.

With some luck I might even manage to make them FREE to use on the day too. Find your closest BLUE stations here.

More on this as it unravels. Check the En Masse page and spread the word.
