What was it like last year? if anyone went

Looks like a little bit hipster fixie'ish

Relatively close to home for me, could easily ride there if only taking the one bike but which one to take :wink:

Hipsterish yes, but most the members of fixed have some of Australia's nicest bikes.
Well worth checking out

Plenty of great bikes last year. But not a lot of space to see the bikes.
A bigger space would be "awesome"

cycles gitane ( who took some bikes last year but not able to this year due to work :( )
There is NO room in the shed for the next bike! New shed rqd.
