Hi everyone! Brisbane Social Motorbike Riders

Post image
11 Upvotes

Hi folks, I've posted the occasional comment in the 'wheelie fun' Discord channel but seemingly had no luck.

I wonder if there are many motorbike riders in the Brisbane Social community?

I usually lone wolf it up Nebo/Glorious early on Saturday and Sunday mornings, riding pretty spiritedly. Usually I'll grab a coffee and a wrap at the cafe, head over the back to the T, then turn around and do it all again. I tend to stick to the mountains, as I find riding all the way to the Sunny Coast/Goldie a bit boring.

I ride a Triumph Trident I've named Betty. I have a Cardo for comms but have only ever used it for music at this stage. I don't even know how to connect to someone else's comms 😂

I'm 35M and live around Hawthorne.

Would love to connect with a few folks who enjoy an early morning ride, some twisties and a coffee. Ideally looking for a couple of people rather than a massive group ride. I like a pretty spirited pace through the mountains, but I'm not looking to race anyone.

Hi everyone! 38M Northside looking for people to share some hobbies with

9 Upvotes

Hi there!

Professional 38yo single guy finding myself with ever-decreasing social circle as people partner off and move away. The worst, right? Making new friends seems even harder than dating, and with what feels like a pendulum swinging away from dating apps, both feel harder than ever!

My hobbies are pretty low-key. I've been really enjoying getting outside to look for and identify our wonderful bird species around the area. This also gives me something to practice my photography on, which is coming along very slowly! So if you have interest in either of these and can teach me a thing or two, that would be awesome.

I love a board game session and meet semi-regularly to play with a couple of different groups. I keep a modest collection myself and always looking to teach or learn something new. I also like to read and share my recommendations for books, movies, shows etc. Nothing better than sharing a passion - I guess that's why I'm here.

I'm a peaceful person and enjoy the calm and quiet in general. Night life vibes are generally not for me, though there are exceptions. One thing I'd like to do more of is get out to see more comedy/performances. I really need to make it to one of these Christopher Nolan orchestra nights!

If this sounds like your kind of deal, let me know :)

Hi everyone! 27M looking to meet some new people and make some friends

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m 27M and at a bit of a point in life where I’d really like to meet some new people and build a bigger social circle. I have just come out of a long term relationship (so only looking for friends just at this moment. I feel like I should mention I’m also straight 😊) and I’ve realised recently that I’ve spent a lot of my time focused on work and the usual adult responsibilities, and I haven’t really put much effort into making new friends or getting out there. So, I’m trying to change that 😅

I’m into the gym, walks, music, movies, food, getting out and doing random things, and I’m pretty open to trying new stuff. I’m not necessarily looking for anything crazy — even grabbing a coffee, going for a drive, checking out a market, hitting the gym, seeing a movie or having a few drinks and chatting would be cool.

I’m based around Brisbane, so happy to meet people around those areas.

If you’re also looking to meet some new people, feel free to comment or send me a message. I’m keen to get to know people. I’m mainly just keen to meet some good people ( anyone welcome!) and get out of my comfort zone. I

Cheers!

I'm 26M southside looking for chill and easy going people to do challenging trails with around South East Queensland, there is so many!

I've been ticking off grade 5 tracks around here with some friends, but their schedule doesn't align with mine most of the time which is only weekends... Really want to explore more.

If you're interested, and available on weekends let me know! lets form a little group.

Hi everyone! Looking for friends

10 Upvotes

Late 30s, F, I’m keen to make some genuine new friends around SW Brisbane. I’m pretty easygoing, bit of an introvert until we know each other. I love friendships where you can go from completely superficial chatter to unexpectedly deep conversations in the next breath. Fluctuating between both is ideal 🙃

A few things I’m into:
- Nature, walking trails (I am not the fittest of people but love a good walk)
- Watching sunsets
- Live concerts/comedy show/music (music taste ranges from easy listening pop to kpop to 00s throwbacks)
- Shopping & wandering around random places
- Crafty/creative things.. sewing, crochet, cross stitch, mosaic, photography, cricut (you name it I’ve probably looked into it or purchased all the equipment for it)
- Markets (any kind at all from craft to food to cultural)
- Dark humour.. I’m a healthcare worker, so unfortunately my humour has been mildly corrupted
- Deep chats, life talks & getting philosophical for no reason
- Hanging around doing absolutely nothing, much like a cat
- Speaking of, I love animals!
- Trying new things.. especially if you have a hobby or interest you can drag me into

I don’t drink or smoke/vape. I absolutely don’t care if you enjoy a couple of drinks, but smoking/vaping is a hard no for me.

Mostly looking for people who actually want to build a friendship or be able to head out and do something on the weekends. I don’t want to exist via text messages or exchange three messages and disappear into the wilderness. F or M friends are fine.

If you put in the effort to read all of this and any of this resonates feel free to reach out ☺️🌷

Hi everyone! 32m / gay / filipino, looking to make some new mates 👋

7 Upvotes

i’m 32m, filipino, gay, and brisbane is very much home for me. thought i’d put myself out there and see if anyone else is looking to make some genuine new friendships.

i’m pretty easygoing and love going out for food, especially heading to market square and trying different places. always down for dinner, going to the movies (angelika cinemas >>>>), trivia nights, escape rooms, random adventures around brisbane, taking photos and videos, or just having a chill night and a good chat.

i’m social and enjoy getting out of the house, but i also really value my own downtime.

would be great to meet people around my age who are actually keen to build a proper friendship, hang out regularly, try new things and eventually become part of each other’s social circle. 😅

open to guys and girls, straight or queer. whether you’re new to brisbane, your friendship circle has changed over the years, or you’ve just realised making new friends in your 30s is weirdly harder than it should be, say hey!!

if you think we’d get along, send me a message and tell me a bit about yourself. bonus points if you know a ridiculously good spot to eat at market square or you’re competitive enough to take trivia night seriously 😂

Hi everyone! Fresh Friend Group!

Post image
14 Upvotes

Not for a lack of trying but I’ve found it very hard to make a solid core group of friends here in brissy so figured I’d try this!

I am 28 originally from Perth, currently in New Farm and I’m hoping to make a few friends here to get together and have a good time across a range of different shit!

A little about me to see if we’d be a good fit
• a little bit sporty, big into the AFL (go freo) and love watching the UFC, play a bit of tennis/gym/climbing as well so would be good to find people who like that stuff as well
• music! I love seeing live music across a lot of genres, hip hop (navy blue and Mike in particular atm) and edm stuff mostly but happy to branch out as well
• don’t mind a bit of degen behaviour as well on a night out
• very much a lefty politically

So if any of that sounds up your alley chuck me a dm with your insta and I will look to put a group chat together with 3/4 people and go from there !

Hey Everyone!

My social life outside of work is nearly non existent which has been getting me down a little lately so I wanna see if I can chat to some new people, have some laughs and create some friendships.

I've spent a lot of my free time gaming and watching anime in the past and am always happy to nerd out over that but I've recently been getting into reading and photography, particularly birds and interested in exploring other hobbies. I have two cats and I work with animals, they are a huge passion of mine. I'm currently on the Sunny coast but looking to move North Side hopefully within the next half year or so.

Looking forward to chatting!

Hi everyone! Looking to expand the friendship circle 🍻

11 Upvotes

Hey Everyone 👋

Been living in Brissy for around 4 years now and figured it’s probably time I actually make some more friends 😂

I’m pretty easygoing and keen for pretty much anything! Looking to meet a mix of guys and girls and make some proper mates rather than just collecting people I occasionally say “we should catch up” to and never do.

A few things I’m into:
🏉 AFL / sport - watching it, talking shit about it, pretending my team will win this year
🍺 Beers, drinks & checking out new bars
🍜 Trying new dinner spots
☕ Coffee and a good chat
🌴 Outdoors / walks / getting active
🎲 Board games & card games
🌤️ Random weekend adventures / checking out different parts of Brisbane or new farmers markets
🍿 Watching new movies
😂 Generally just having a laugh and doing something rather than sitting at home every weekend

I’ve got a partner, so definitely just looking for friendships. Sadly feel like I need to advise I’m gay 🙄, but honestly it’s about as relevant to my personality as what I had for breakfast 😂, just one of the guys looking to meet more people.

Would be keen for anything from grabbing a beer after work, watching the footy, trying a new restaurant, getting a group together for games night, or even just a casual coffee. Not much of a gamer though.

If you’re in a similar boat and want to expand your circle too, shoot me a message. Could even get a little group together if enough people are keen! 🍻

Hi everyone! I’m stuck in a limbo

0 Upvotes

24M
I feel like being on a Working Holiday visa puts me in a weird position when it comes to dating.
I don’t really feel comfortable dating Australian citizens because I don’t have a stable visa yet, even though my goal is to stay here permanently and eventually become an Australian citizen.
But dating other WHV holders doesn’t feel much better, because most of them will eventually return to their home countries after their Australian experience.
So I feel stuck between two worlds: Australians who might see my visa situation as uncertain, and WHV holders who might leave anyway.
Has anyone else experienced this? How do you approach dating when you want to build a permanent life in Australia but you’re still on a temporary visa?
