Allrounder Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I will get input from the family regarding the 2 dates and give feedback.
Allrounder Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 I have spoken to Shane. He won't be able to join the ride because of his injuries. Only Gregs wife is in the WC, and she will give me a call regarding the dates, and if she wants to join. I will keep you guys posted.
Allrounder Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 For the memorial ride, I will arrange for a follow vehicle, and bikes to escort us from the Kuilsriver golf club. I think it is a good starting point for the ride. I have never done something like this before. So any body with experience or knowledge? Do we have to notify any authorities? or do we just do a ride? We are not closing any roads or anything, so dont think it is necessary.
Allrounder Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 I am still waiting on Gregs wife to confirm. If we have no feedback regarding the dates, I think we should call it, so that we can start campaigning.

Allrounder, I don't think you are ever going to get a date that suits everybody, I say just pick one that suits most of us and run with it. That saturday before the Argus sounds like a good idea

We can gather on the outer parking area that is not used early in the morning. To notify the Traffic Dept. is one thing. They charge you for using the officials. The main aim is to get everyone to ride the same pace. You will get guys that want to race to the Memorial site. This will make it difficult to Marshall. To get the riders to stay within the Yellow line will also be a huge task.

Allrounder Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 I have to agree with ipic being a better starting point.
Allrounder Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Do any of you have access to a cyclists ahead car magnet?
Smurfy Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Do any of you have access to a cyclists ahead car magnet?Give me 10min, need to make a phone call.
Smurfy Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Sorted, we have the magnets for a vehicle. I will do the back up if needed.
