    lmao... Balaclava. You're in for a shock mate.. it all happens there. There's a small PCYC there and not too many gyms in the area. You'd have to drive a bit to find anything close. Port Melbourne has the Fight-Fit Gym. I dont have a contact number though. Best place local for you though.

    Yeah what Flamengo said. The closest one to you is the PCYC on Carlisle St. But Fight-fit in Port Melbourne is better equiped. There's also Leo Berry's gym on Church st in Richmond behind the police station. Haven't been there in a while so not sure what state it's in.

    Hardy ha fkn ha!!!!! ****. lol.

    Bushy.. Balaclava is the Mecca of Melbourne weirdo's. Dykes, ***s, Druggies... and that's just the local cops!. Best thing about the place is the public transport system to get you out of there.

    Leo Berry is too old to train boxers now, but last time I checked the gym was still equiped for people to train. Balaclava is the Jewish section of Melbourne. It's a good area and has it's fair share of Dykes etc if you're into that sort of thing like Flamengo. Anyone who says Melbourne is boring just isn't cool enough to know where the good **** is, we don't want just any clown coming down and Sydneying up the place...hehe.

    Haha. It's a form of natural selection. Only Melbournians can pull that **** off. Thereby separating the men from the boys and thus making us superior and more highly evolved Australians.

    It's fun to see QLDers attempt these amazingly difficult manouvres.... actually, walking upright is difficult for the majority of QLDers..
