Andrew Stroud Speaking

Howdy folks.

Straight off the bat I want to say that this is only advertising. No debate will be entered into in any way, shape, or form.

On Saturday the 14th of Feb Andrew Stroud will be speaking at a regular Men's group breakfast held at my Church (I am not going to debate this). I am sure some of you may be interested to hear him and ask some questions.

While being held in a Church, the event is not especially Christian or preechy. Someone will probably say a grace before eating. It is pretty informal, and is designed largely as a good time to talk to and get to know a bunch of people you might not ordinarily mix with. It is for Men only (and as I said earlier I am not gong to debate this). A gold coin koha is also appreciated to cover the cost of the continental breakfast.

I need to know numbers of anyone wanting to attend, so PM me and I can forward you time and place details.

Cheers.

Speaking about what?

**Sharkey** · 9th February 2004, 09:29

Excellent question.

Probably about how cool it is to ride a Britten very quickly. These things tend to be very open and undefined. Dad just finds people who sound interesting and asks if they would be willing to give a bit of a presentation, the content of which is up to them.

I have no idea if Andrew has any religious affiliation, and as such no idea whether such issues will crop up or not. I wouldn't expect so.

There tends to be a Q&A session at the end too.

Phew! I thought it was on the 7th and I'd completely forgotten about it!
I'll make a note now

I thought he was a 'christian"?

Could be, don't know.

Andrew became very deeply religous after the death of john britten and people constantly mention it at the race tracks.

**What?** · 10th February 2004, 09:59

He wasn't short on religion prior to JB's departure, either. BUT - he doesn't try to sell it.

Who gives a toss if the guys religious or not?!

The man is a weapon on anything two wheeled and a bloody good guy to boot. Always got time for a chat and totally aproachable.

Hey thanks again for the invite Sharkey, I thorougly enjoyed the meeting and getting together with you guys!

The weather this morning was disastrous at 6.50am when I left home , I was disappointed that I had to drive my cage instead of the bike- especially when those tremendous blue skies suddenly appeared after the meeting finished :sneaky2:

Andrew did a great presentation about his career & the Britten...wow, what a buzz it must have been riding that 140kg, 160hp beast to victory!!

Take care

Zed
p.s Hope you get back on two wheels again soon...
