Post subject: Help please..how do i get to Metricon from Surfers | |

Have booked Chevron towers for the Gold Coast game.
Just wondering if anyone else is staying in Surfers and knows how to get to the ground.
Stayed at Broadbeach last time.
Thanks _________________ 'MADE IT LEGENDARY' |

There will be buses linking up with the GC Highway route, probably at Broadbeach. Check the Suns website, there is venue and transport info there.
Last year I got my daughter to drop us off, but there was only one place where it was allowed. We shared a cab home but had to queue for an hour or so. Wished we'd caught the bus.
Surfers Chevron was one of my childhood haunts in the 60s, great pools |

Bertha and I had our Silver Jubilee there during Schoolies Week. Bloody disgrace. I think the Gold Coast is worse than Bali _________________ I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for. |

It's a lot better now than it was back in 1963, Hiss! _________________ In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.

It's shocking, literally no parking and cab queues are terrible. My advice, have someone drop you off and pick you up.
That or take a good book and thermos and join the hour long queue after the game.

I just got back from the GC, you'll need to go through Asia to get to the ground. _________________ Defender...........

Catch the G-Train to Broadbeach, then bus to Metricon [free to ticket holders]. Lets just hope we can manage a win this year |
