Hey fellas, is there anyone doesn't have a car and has to catch public transport to punt? I don't have one myself as I just just started working so not having much extra income, and my driving skill need to be improved as well.
However, it is sometimes very inconvenient to punt without driving. Shops I had been to that were very inconvenient for public transport including 65 Carlton, 645 Blakehurst, 64 Taren Point and Zinia Strathfield (just 2 days ago), as they are all far away from train stations, so for me the whole trip will involve train, bus plus walk (longer than 10 mins). What a pity that I had a really satisfied session at 645 Blakehurst but the transport stopped me to go back.
So brothers do you have similar experience like this and which shops are the farthest or hardest to get there that you have been to? Any shop that is so good and you would keep returning regardless the long trip?

I sold my car a while ago and just have a motorbike, still punt fine but cbf when it's wet.
Ginza is a short walk from central lol
I have a motorbike as well. Two benefits. Easy to get to shops beating the traffic. Benefit 2.... hi wifey, I am off on a motorbike ride all day today. Ok dear have a good day.....start the bike up and head to the brothel before my ride or pop in on the way back home after an all day ride.
Usually finding parking in city is nightmare with traffic , finding a spot and having to
pay meter or car park station. I catch public transport and usually make it a outing.
Make a appointment or just wander into shop hoping there is some hidden gem i
haven't seen. Then after maybe do some shopping or have lunch or dinner then
go home and have a nap.
Uber, at least from the nearest station or bus stop
There is a shop at Taren point/Caringbah that was offering curtesy car lifts for customer ...not sure if it's still running though
Unfortunately it was Allawah instead of Hurstville that I used to live, so I need to firstly take the train to Hurstville, and then take buses from there to go to these shops. Now I moved to Burwood, so I started to explore shops around including 57 George, Taylors Lidcombe and Ashfield 295/17.
In terms of addiction, TBH I feel I'm already addicted to punting, as I punt once or twice every week regularly, while so far I can only afford those budget shops.
Live near central station and you don't really need a car. And walking distance to many massage shops in or near the city. Not having a car isn't that jog a deal unless you want to go to those shops out west I guess
Living in the inner city you have dozens of FS and R&T shops within a 10-15 min walk or bus ride or train trip or taxi.
I think real estate against should put this in their spiel "Location, location, location! 60 brothels and massage parlours just 15 minutes away!"
Well, CBD around Townhall is the RnT heaven in Sydney at the moment. And for me, these are my go to areas as no car is required !
Then there are the greater Surry Hills, Pyrmont, Kings Cross/5 Star, then Parramatta Road from Broadway down to Burwood Road, and the Granville area ! And transport is needed which then requires time and opportunity and very ver hard to come by !
Sorry to the brothers down south and up north. Not my area and totally out of my way! Please feel free to add your districts accordingly.......... haha
Cheers
Sydney is the punting paradise.😘
I like to have a couple of schooners before and after a punt so i am always legging it or on public transport.
I would say one thing - don't let distance limit you!
It's worth a long trip to have a great punt! I would honestly say I'd be willing to travel over an hour on a train to go for a very good session, rather than a lame one close by! Think of the money you're spending! Just take a magazine or laptop etc for the train ride.
I usually take the train for my cbd punts because traffic there is a bitch. I have no problem with that! I enjoy it and it's well worth it!
However, I really have fond memories of beautiful days driving to go to certain shops (I love my car).
Will go further if the shop is well rated, rather than local where inconsistent service happens
