AWNMR - Wednesday Night Mentor Ride

all are welcome to attend and learn

Meeting in Shell, Westgate at 6:30PM and directed to a practice area nearby.

RAIN OR SHINE - THIS GOES AHEAD EVERY SINGLE WEDNESDAY REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER!

Starting with a practice session covering a range of different skills and techniques under the close supervision of experienced KB mentors.

Depending on numbers and experience levels of those attending, a short ride may be included to practice further skills.

Just a note here folks
We are a bunch of experienced riders who are happy to pass on our riding experience in an informal way We are not claiming to be a qualified training organisation.
It will NEVER replace training from Qualified instructors like the Ride Safe course or the 1 on 1 training people like TRICIA1000 are able to give you --- Frosty

PLEASE FOLKS THIS IS NOT A GENERAL OPEN RIDE -IF YOU WANNA SHOW OFF YOUR MONO SKILLS DO IT ANOTHER NIGHT

Directions: I have added some maps below. The google-earth photo shows westgate most clearly - the gas station is the building above the letter "p" in "pinot lane".

Dan--gimme a yeodle--I might have found a closer /better/safer practice area

**The Stranger:Me** · 11th July 2007, 16:59

Macktheknife has asked me to post saying that tonight instead of training or a ride they are going straight to the pub (Africa Bar) for a "theory session".

So if you are on the shore or it is easier to get to Africa Bar than Shell Westgate go straight there, but don't bother going to the practice area.

Have a good one.

Was too sick last week, however 'the message' appeared not to reach the rest of the group... *sigh* will shoot the messenger next time and just call...

...should be along this week though

This week I have organised a 'special guest' to come and talk to everyone, she will be coming to 'participate' and then will give a short presentation at the pub. Im sure you will all make her very welcome... I sure will
