    Tug Boat, you should be able to click the link at the bottom: "I will no longer be attending this event".

    MXNUT, I have fixed the link in the first post so that it doesn't auto-enroll. People just have to click at the bottom where it says "I will be attending this event".

    Unhappy Date Change !!!

    A bit of a story............................

    In July last year i was feeling a bit left out with everyone else on KB injuring themselves OFF THEIR Motorcycle, so i "DID A DINO"
    and decided to fall off the roof of my house.
    Ended up with a broken rib, a strained shoulder and a sore knee.
    Well the rib healed up ok, the shoulder is about 90 % and the knee seemed to be geting better.

    Untill earlier this year when the knee started getting worse.
    After a couple of trips to the ( the 1st time he told me that it was arthritis due to getting old, ) and then another X RAY an ultrasound and a MRI, he referred me to an orthopaedic surgeon.

    Seems that i have a small tear in the knee cartlidge that will need to be surgically repaired.

    The reason that i am telling you all this .........

    He wants to cut me up on the 5th of december, and this will mean no riding for 5-6 weeks
    As i am planning on going south to do the Dusty Butt again next year this will work in with just enough recovery time.

    So that means a date change for the GT Barrier Adventure Tour, to before the date of the operation.

    So the new date of the ride is Friday November 23rd to Sunday November 25th.

    Date changed on the 1st post.
















    PS........ for those of you who dont know, the term "Did A Dino" refers to a dumb arse accident at home

    Well thanks to Eddie and Shewolf's chatter about this on FarceBook I thought I would throw myself in! - My significant pillion is working over seas at the moment and has to check her roster - but you can put me down for a definite 1 and possibly a 2 for this weekend. cant confirm until the work roster gets published on the 28th of October. hope that is OK?
    Retired- just some guy with a few bikes......

    Thumbs up Accomodation bookings.

    2 and a bit Weeks to go.

    Any one else thinking of signing up for this ride will need to do so by this thursday evening or else organize your own accomodation somewhere else.

    For those that have signed up already I will send you a PM re the accomodation
