/me is interested...


tzzzt... there i are

Melbourne, Australia (specifically, Melbourne East )

I have a Cunning Plan

Currently traveling by public transport and bike. I'll be a lot more likely to go interesting places once i have a car again... and won't be limited to just the city then. Looking forward to that, and utilising the full graticule.

In fact, since I prefer to get out of the city on weekends, i might try for some more interesting graticules as well.

Some form of GPS might be more helpful though. Currently I'll be limited to pre-noting and good old fashioned map-readery. (or maybe Google maps mobile if there's a handy wifi hot-spot nearby)

List of things to have for the next time

This list will evolve as time progresses

  • Sunglasses - because I don't need flies in my eyes while cycling.
  • A GPS or WAP - because either could let me use computer-ated mapology
(now have wapness enabled, so there's something at least. problem is Google Maps Mobile has a 300m error margin when running off the towers)
  • A car - because the trains in melbourne... are not great.
  • a replacement the drink bottle holder on my bike.
  • more - because i forgot to write things down.
