Does anyone train at a gym in Sydney (Australia)? I'm here for about a month and am looking for somewhere to train before I forget everything.

Thanks. Castle Hill is out where I used to live, but a bit far from where I am now. But Five Dock might be OK if I can find a bus, as I am only in Campsie.

Just recovering from a nasty cold atm, but when I'm better I will likely pop in for a session or two.

My cold is pretty much history and I found a bus. I'm planning on turning up 7:30-9:30 tonight (Tuesday). See if they let me in.

Anyone know the deal with insurance? I have british gym membership which I doubt counts for squat.

Cool. I actually have a medicare card, but it expired.

BTW, I'll be going along to Five Dock. Castle Hill is really hard to get to from here.

lol, they wont check the expiry, they just want you to write a number down on their paperwork from a medicare card....so if you have it you should be fine. Enjoy it dude, hope there are some other guys for you to trick with. We want to have a grass session some time soon in on of the city parks, will let you know...

Thanks. I'm really crap on grass. To make matters worse, I'm really out of form at the moment. I couldn't even 720 in the gym tonight and I'd been nearly getting 1080's last time I regularly trained. But if I'm around I'll come along, mainly to see some quality Australian tricks.
