Looking to meet new people, explore nature, and have a good laugh along the way?
This is your perfect Sunday plan! 🎉
We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Melbourne Social Hike. A welcoming day out where the focus is all about fun, friendships, and fresh air. Whether you come solo or bring a mate, you’ll leave with new connections and memories!
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
🚙 **Carpooling Makes It Happen**
Wilderness Seekers Victoria runs on community spirit and carpooling is a big part of that. Every seat offered means another hiker can join the adventure. Less cars, easier logistics, more fun together.
Carpooling is a great way to start the day by meet new people, share a few laughs, and arrive at the trail together. Drivers, your contribution makes a huge difference, and passengers, your gratitude keeps it all running smoothly. It’s simple, social, and one of the best parts of the Wilderness Seekers Victoria experience. 🚗🌿
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
👉 **Carpool Driver information**
If you’ve got spare seats and don’t mind some company, offering a lift is one of the best ways to kick off the day 🚙💨. It makes the trip more fun, helps out fellow hikers who don’t have a car, and is an easy way to make a few friends before we even hit the trail. Plus, fewer cars means less parking stress and a smoother start for everyone.
For passengers, it’s the easiest way to get to the trail, meet new people and enjoy the ride together instead of travelling alone. In our Wilderness Seekers Victoria community, many people are more than happy to help out those without cars it’s part of what makes these days feel so welcoming and connected.
✨ Best practice: Passengers should try to secure transportation before purchasing a ticket to avoid any last-minute stress.
**Important Carpooling Note**
Drivers and passengers should stick with the arrangements they make. We **do not recommend swapping drivers or cars**after you’ve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure **all parties are clearly informed and agree** to avoid confusion.
If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesn’t pick you up, Wilderness Seekers Victoria (and your driver) are **not liable** for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with.
In the transport chat, drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations often major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne.
For this hike, **the nearest station to the trail are** [Mernda ](https://maps.app.goo.gl/63B9Mu6DZeJXdkL4A "https://maps.app.goo.gl/63B9Mu6DZeJXdkL4A")or [Hurstbride ](https://maps.app.goo.gl/g6hs2T9Jotv3Jg6E6 "https://maps.app.goo.gl/g6hs2T9Jotv3Jg6E6")though drivers may choose whichever spot is most convenient for them. Passengers can then join from those locations.

🍽️ **Food Arrangement**
After our hike, we love keeping the good vibes rolling with a meal together. We’ll suggest a café or restaurant that’s usually on the way back toward the city so it’s easy for everyone and avoids extra driving.
It’s always a highlight of the day swapping stories from the trail, sharing laughs, and getting to know your fellow hikers even better over some good food.
Joining is optional, but most people stick around because it’s such a fun way to finish the adventure. Everyone just covers their own meal, and we’ll confirm the spot in the Instagram group chat on the day.
When booking, you’ll be asked if you’d like to join: Yes / No / Not Sure. The organisers will confirm the restaurant or bar on the day, based on feedback.

Tassie Climbing Adventures! (Round 3) - EOI (ROC)
To join this trip, visit http://roc.org.au/trips/trip-info/?trip_id=5754 and click 'Join trip' at the bottom of that page.
Splitter dolerite cracks, Beautiful seaside granite, spectacular sport crags, mega mountainous adventures. What more could you want? Tassie has it all.
Once again, I'm putting out the feelers for anyone interested in a week or two of absolutely huge adventures in Australia's most rugged and diverse state: Tasmania.
Connor Mackenzie on "Beowulf" (17), a classic sea cliff traverse in Freycinet National Park. (Alex Holroyd on belay)
___________________________________________________________________________________
For this trip, you must be at minimum a sport leader, and it is highly recommended that you are a trained trad leader with the club. Whilst there is a LOT of sport in Tassie, the real bread and butter is in the amazing trad lines, and it would be hard to centre a trip around purely sport climbing. Do not worry at all if you are not leading above a certain grade, Tassie has something for all!
The plan is to have a week or two to explore what the island has to offer. Bring some cars down on the boat, share the costs between us. The cost will come out to about $500 - $1000 per person depending on how long we go for/how many people will come down.
_____________________________________________________________________________________

Sandringham beach foreshare walk
Join us for a refreshing Neurospicy Bayside meetup with a gentle walk along the beautiful Sandringham foreshore! This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with other neurospicy individuals in a relaxed, no-pressure environment.
We'll meet at the **Sandringham Rotunda at 11 AM** on **Sunday 1st Feb 2026.**
Here's what our walk will look like:
* **11am AM - 11:15 AM:** We'll start with a short 15-minute out-and-back walk to allow for any latecomers to join us comfortably.
* **11:15am onwards:**
* **Walk to Black Rock:** we'll embark on a picturesque 90-minute walk from Sandringham to Black Rock and back (45 minutes there, 45 minutes back). You'll enjoy stunning bay views and beautiful trees along the way. We'll maintain a gentle pace, allowing for easy conversation as we walk. We'll stop in Black Rock and have a coffee/snack at a cafe.
This walk is designed to be a comfortable and inclusive way to socialise. As we walk side-by-side along the trail, you'll naturally be looking ahead, which can be a more comfortable way to chat with others for many autistic individuals, removing the pressure of direct eye contact.
**Wet Weather Plan:**
If it's raining, we'll shift our plans! Instead of walking, we'll head to **Dzert Cafe**, conveniently located near Sandringham Station, for a relaxed chat over coffee and treats.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Compensation Data
**People Analytics 101: Making Sense of Compensation Data**
Compensation data is one of the most widely used and widely misunderstood forms of people analytics.
The session will cover where compensation data comes from, including market pricing data, internal payroll data, and benchmarking sources, and how companies think about structuring and analyzing that information. We will explore how compensation data is leveraged to set salary ranges, manage internal equity, support hiring and retention, and align pay with business strategy. A portion of the session will address common data challenges and limitations, such as market noise, inconsistent job matching, and incomplete datasets, while keeping the primary focus on practical use rather than technical depth.
The session will also look ahead at where the space is going, including the growing impact of pay transparency laws, expanding pay equity requirements, and emerging regulations in the US and Europe that require organizations to report on gender and pay gaps. The goal is to give attendees a clear mental model for how compensation analytics works today and why getting it right is becoming increasingly critical.
(note: we are back at Rev1 this month!)
**About Our Speaker**
[Alex Moore](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexscottmoore/) is the founder of [Moore Cooperative](https://moorecooperative.com/), where he advises organizations on compensation strategy, pay equity, and people analytics. His work focuses on helping organizations like the Ohio Supreme Court design, analyze, and communicate compensation systems that are data-informed, defensible, and aligned with organizational goals. Alex lives in Granville, Ohio and has three little kiddos.

Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program:
Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there!
Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk.
Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online
