Riding into a Long Weekend

The regular Friday morning ride to Sassy’s had quite a boost in numbers today. Each Friday morning a group of cyclists ride from Canning Vale to the city for a coffee to get the day underway.

The Friday public holiday in Western Australia meant that a lot more riders were free to ride into the city to sit beside the Swan River and enjoy some great company and conversation. With perfect weather and a good crowd of riders it was a great way to start the day.

The only downside was the 15% slug on top of their normal prices. Their prices aren’t generally cheap but that’s understandable for such a prime piece of real estate, but to add a 15% surcharge for the public holiday is just nasty.
