Group riding - the DVD...

**bugjuice** · 4th October 2005, 20:14

k, so I have a DVD of tips n tricks for riding in groups. It's pretty much a must watch for every newbie who has no experience in riding in group formation. It covers everything you need to know when group riding (once you're on the road to ride, it's a different story) including signals, waiting at junctions, break downs, prep work, organising the ride etc etc..

It's not something you want to keep and watch over and over (hardly a box office smash hit), but it's valuable knowledge to know. Even if you've ridden for years, but no group riding.. Hopefully make it all a safer time for the rest of us.

Anyway, the deal is - whoever wants this DVD, PM me. First come, first serve. Post here to say you received and that you have it. Watch it. Then post here that you are ready to pass it on. The next person PMs you. You mail it to them, and so forth. Then more KBers will get to see it, and we can all share. Just the cost of a couple of bucks to send it on to the next. Please look after the DVD, get local KBers round to see it too, and just keep passing it on.
May be a mod even make this a sticky thread, to keep it active?

So, who's first up? I'll drop it local, or mail it NZ wide. Just pm and then say you've got it here

Is it copyrighted? I can burn off a few copies if you like, get one for each of the main centers?

Or could convert to Divx if someone wants to put up the space to host it?

I know some of the talent that helped make this particular product. There's some nice camera work. And some useful learning!

And all material is copyright, whether or not it is directly stated on the material in question. Other people's work should be treated with respect.

yeah, gonna have to go with Hitcher on this WRT, sorry..
It's good that we have it in our little circle, but I still feel bad that we're passing a copy round. Either way, SteveD is picking it up tonight, and then once he's watched it, he can pass it on

Hey, dont appologise! That was why I was asking if it was protected by copyright, to assertain the legality/morality of copying it.

Would it a good thing for a DVD night round at someones house over a couple of beers and some pizza? Get a bit of a debate going on over it?

that would be a sad night, and the lowest point of the week..
it's factual, it says what it says (which is pretty much spot on), and that's it. But, we can come round with pizza and beers and watch your porn collection.

now, back to passing it round (the ride safe DVD that is..)

Ok, maybe debate wasnt the right word to use there, perhaps "conversation" would have been better . . .

**tracyprier** · 5th October 2005, 15:13

Yep, I'd like a watch of that thanks... never too old to learn sumthink new

**steved** · 5th October 2005, 19:57

I have received and watched the DVD, thanks Buggy. It looks like tracyprier is the next up. Shoot me a PM with your address details and I'll get it in the mail tomorrow.
