I'm in Orlando too. I'm not really into lock picking except as part of my job. I am more interested in alternative bypass techniques that I can apply at work.

So, just a call out to all central florida people. Would anyone want to have a meetup sometime, see where we can take the local locksport group. If needbe, we can find a place that would work well for everyone. At this point, it would be great to have a locksport group a little closer than jacksonville.

Orlando's not too far, to be honest, and I pass through there every now and then on my way to the coast to surf. Count me in.

I'm in Broward. I doesn't look like there's much activity in Southeast Florida. :(

Zero interest that I could find in Florida anywhere.

May I recommend you guys check out your local 2600 or Defcon meet up, they happen once a month and have been going on for years, so it's easier to meet like minded people who are into hacking, lockpicking, electronics, etc.

Here's a list of current meetings in Florida for 2600 Magazine readers, usually first Friday of each month:
http://www.2600.com/meetings/

Florida
Gainesville: In the back of the University of Florida's Reitz Union food court. 6 pm
Jacksonville: O'Brothers Irish Pub, 1521 Margaret St. 6:30 pm
Melbourne: Matt's Casbah, 801 E New Haven Ave. 5:30 pm
Orlando: Panera Bread, Fashion Square Mall.
Sebring: Lakeshore Mall food court, next to payphones. 6 pm
Titusville: StoneFire Art Gallery & Studios, 2500 S Washington Ave.

Here are Defcon groups by Area code, email the admins listed for your area code to see if they're interested in having a lockpicking component to their meetings.
http://www.defcon.org/html/defcon-group ... index.html

Note: That scene is very dynamic.. in MA we had (413) meetings for 2600 in the same spot for 10 years, then people fell out of the group, graduated from college, got married, and meetings just stopped.. I heard a new crowd is heading up meetings now at a new location, so check to see if the meetings in your area are still alive.
hope this helps!

I'm in Palm Beach. The 2600 tip is a good one, squelchtone, but I'd be interested in knowing if anyone else is in South Florida.

TCS, I realize it's been over a year since you posted, but if you're still active, perhaps we could meet up sometime. :)

Any one from Hamilton Ontario Canada

Postby pickmonger » 18 Jun 2015 17:43

The regular locksports meet moved from the place on Dundurn St in Hamilton to Toronto.

Just wondering if there are any others who can't travel to Toronto for the meetings.
