APEC isn't all bad...
On my way in to work this morning I got to George St where I came up behind three bike cops on their Suzuki 400 trailies, so naturally I stayed riding along just behind them. It was great, because no-one tried to cut me off as they usually do...heheh gotta love that
(Actually had a similar occurrence when Dick Cheney was in town as well).

Re: APEC isn't all bad...
Oh, i thought they used the Windsor airbase for aircraft storage as there's a distinct lack of space at Sydney airport. If you can avoid it, steer clear of the eastern 'burbs/the city tomorrow morning as Mr Putin arrives at Sydney Airport at 7:20am tomorrow and they are doing the whole clearway thing into the city.
look here for the updates on the road cockups.

They actually sent a bucketload of aircraft down to Melb to sit here and wait. I'm looking out my window now, and the freight apron is packet with different aircraft.
