Allrounder Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Unfortunately it looks like I won't. I will be down this weekend and the Argus weekend. If somebody can send me the exact location, I would like to go pay respects this Sunday.on the bottelary road, just before the robot where you turn right on the r304 to stellenbosch its just after the roadworks. its about 200 meters or so, a straight piece of road. I hope it helps.
Geronimo Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 With you in spirit from Jhb.And me from Nigeria. A lot of guys coming down for the Argus later or they would have joined the ride for Gregory.
Allrounder Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 indeed. but a weekday ride is just impossible for us locals. and the day just before the argus would also not work. Thanks for your support!
Smurfy Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Ryan, we are asking you to please mention that there will be a memorial ride for Greg Basson that was killed on the Bottelary road whilst cycling 2 weeks ago. Memorial ride taking place on the 4/3/2017. We will be planting a GHOST BIKE as well. Meeting at the Soneike at 7for 7:30. We have marshalls and back up vehicles. We are asking all cyclists to join us so that we can get the message accross to fellow road users. It will be a memorial ride and not a race, well marshalled. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Regards KFM Breakfast notified. Edited February 9, 2017 by Smurfy Halfdoesyn, Wannabe, varkie2 and 1 other 4

Wannabe Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Have to work tomorrow, otherwise I would be with you all. Great initiative and this is something I want to see each time we have these kinds of tragedies. The ride is on 04 March 2017 only.... Oh ja, and I'll be there. Smurfy and Patchelicious 2
Halfdoesyn Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Is there going to be any sort of formality at the site after the ride? Edited February 10, 2017 by Halfdoesyn Smurfy 1
Wannabe Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Is there going to be any sort of formality at the site after the ride? Yes, I'm quite sure there will be. Bike must be unveiled, etc. Smurfy and Halfdoesyn 2
Smurfy Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Is there going to be any sort of formality at the site after the ride?Hi, yes we have arranged for a priest to say a prayer as well. I`m hoping that the riders who where with Greg or his wife or family members will unveil the Ghost bike. Hoping for a massive turnout.................. Halfdoesyn 1
