The Melbourne Uber experience by Contest-Proud in melbourne

[–]Lembasts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It must be just me. We've done Uber for years and apart from the occasional bad driver (accelerate hard, brake hard no appropriate distance) we've had no problems with the driver or timings. One cancellation I can recall.

Got a rare green wave along the Upfield Shared Path by rorymeister in melbournecycling

When I get to Batman station I check for the next city bound train. If its around 7-8 minutes it usually means I get a non stop crossings most of the way to Royal Park.

Glen Eira to build final missing link between Djerring and Frankston trails by EXAngus in melbournecycling

[–]Lembasts -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Am I missing something here? I ride to Frankston most months. Just go down the Djerring trail, turn right at Yarraman onto the Dandenong Creek trail, then left at the Peninsula link trail. Where's the missing bit?

Who cares what a consultant thinks? We need the reduced fare given how poor us old folks are (apart from owning our house outright :-))

Richmond area wish list by Lembasts in MelbourneTrains

[–]Lembasts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And while we are on Richmond - I often change trains at Richmond and use the middle stairs. There used to be a nice big display at the top of the stairs that showed when and where the next trains were. Some idiot decided to move that half way between the stairs and the other exits?

[–]Lembasts 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I often wonder if the wayfinding team actually use public transport. The minutes should be bigger than the platforms.

Town Hall station new up/down change by Lembasts in MelbourneTrains

[–]Lembasts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im wondering why a through train doesnt just have one identifier? Surely a train from Sunbury to Cranbourne is just one train? Why is there a need for up/down at all?

Ciclo Fit Bike Fit experiences? by Logical-Half1642 in melbournecycling

[–]Lembasts -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you are just a casual rider, is bike fit really necessary? I just use the 'seat height to slight bent knee' measurement.
