Santos TDU Looking to share hotel room in Adelaide.
Postby gerardvok » Sun Jan 05, 2014 1:33 pm
I am attending part of the TDU this year and figure a hotel is a better idea than a hostel when it comes to getting sleep before daily rides along the routes. I would like to share a hotel bill with another rider who is also looking for a fairly quiet place (reasonable quality and secure for bikes) to rest up.
If anyone is interested in sharing a hotel room from Jan22-26 during the TDU (Male only please) then please contact me. gerardvok(at)hotmail(dot)com
Thanks.
Gerard.

There are still hotels available. Please pass the word on if you know of anyone interested in sharing accommodation.
Kind regards.

If anyone is looking for a place to stay/share for the TDU over those days, let me know. You get a queen bed, and standard stuff: fridge, coffee/kettle, ensuite, cable TV etc. Room is on opposite side of hotel from the bar/function rooms (ie quiet), and they are happy for us to store bikes in the room.
$67 per night per person.
First in gets the room.
Contact me if interested or pass it on.
Thanks.
Gerard.

Brilliant! (small exception was the nine network commentary during the crit on Sunday) but it was a thrill to see those amazing riders smashing corkscrew hill - and it was fun riding up that segment also

Did you go? Impressions?

Everything shutting at 5 means I don't have to work OT, suits me!
