Outing in June (First week)
-
This outing is organised for all including non-Singapore buses fans, the reason for this outing is for everyone to get to know better , make more friends and socialise.
Outing should be on a saturday, watch movies , play pool ...etc. If there is anyone that are interested, please leave your name here. I will compile the list and when the time comes nearer.
Any suggestions of this June outing will be greatly appreciated.

Is it open to guys from Cars forum as well? Nick34 has a lot to learn from you mods with regards to personal attack threads. Unfortunately the main perpetrator is currently in UK. Speaking of which, I could use a little help from him to introduce some UK bus fans to our forum. Currently, I'm looking for people to fill in the gaps for me in UK bus history.

Any age limit??? Can i go???

may i go ?

In my point of view, why not. We can exchange expertise in our own areas, e.g. buses and cars and even exchange views on running a forum.Originally posted by iveco:Is it open to guys from Cars forum as well?

I have no objection on this. I believe Airbus330Captain will give thumbs up too. Comments pls, Airbus330Captain. -
I am against this idea. Agree that bus trips included, but you must think of this, not all bus fans are into taking buses the whole day. Having some activities like movies, pool, makan session etc will enhance our relationship / bond eventually. From personal experience, taking buses the whole day can be very boring.Originally posted by SBS9828X:1 suggestion

Also we have to take into consideration for those paying adult fares. It can be a costly outing. -

POOL.. ?? BUt... that means.. that will be restricted to only those who are 16 and above.. All of us know that the legal age to play pool is 16...Originally posted by off_service:I am against this idea.

HI can we like pay a visit to one of the bus depots as well? i never got a chance to visit it and so does many others.. also, rides on 9889 and the cng buses also nice..

I agree, my most recent trips to singapore included more of the going out and having fun than the riding of buses like siao until you go sian. Off_Serivce will know this, having taken part in one or two of them.Originally posted by off_service:I am against this idea.

For those who have questions on the decision on playing pool during outing, I would like to clarify myself.
1. Most pool centres have an age limit of 16 and above.
2. The pool outing is just a suggestion. I believe this decision would not be feasible for this outing, taking into consideration there might be younger bus enthusiasts around.
3. Also I would like to stress that the forumnites here do not get too anxious over anything posted here. There are suggestions which might be or might not be feasible. The decision would be made carefully, ensuring that no one would be left out.
4. If this proves successful, I suggest we may have outings for pool games, etc for different groups of people. This would not be implemented very soon.
5. In addition to what I've posted previously, I am against the idea of just taking buses as there might be other parties interested for this outing, but they are not bus enthusiasts. We must spare a thought for them as bus rides may bore them to the ultimate.
6. Thank you for your patience on reading this. -
Costs of taking buses. Have you tried spending over $15 just on bus rides a day? I believe not.Originally posted by SBS9828X:Taken note but pool? do they have age limit?so what is the cost of all of this?
I have a personal experience on this and the feeling of seeing the number on the EZLink reader getting smaller and smaller isn't that good.
And yes, shrinking wallet. Ouch. -
Hi, thank you for your interests in the outing.Originally posted by 105090:HI can we like pay a visit to one of the bus depots as well? i never got a chance to visit it and so does many others.. also, rides on 9889 and the cng buses also nice..
1. Visits of bus depots cannot be impromptu. It will not be entertained by the bus companies. Both parties (us and the bus co) need time to consolidate the strength of the group, security clearance and also the availability of staffs to guide the tour. From experience this will take at least 2 months or more.
2. Rides on 9889U would have to be on a weekday and I believe there will be some forumnites who can't make it. My suggestion is that you can get hold of the schedule if possible, and go on the trip at your own time or in a small group of your choice.
3. Same goes for the CNG Buses. Just that they might operate on weekends. No guarantee here.
