Yeah it is definately looking like shit, if it is they will most likely postpone it till the following weekend.

Question! If the memorial ride is organised by Bikers Against Drunk Driving, why are we going to a pub? I will go along and support it because I worked with one of the fallin, Toni. But having a stop over at a pub seems a bit hypocritical, as much as I love the Oko, and riding after a few beers!! (hmm maybe they need to vet riders too?) Either way I am part of the posuer crew and , well, I like to pose! and what better way to do it than with 400 other bikers..

The pub does not serve achol at that time of morning, against there licence, i think

**Matt_TG** · 21st August 2008, 20:07

in addition to the operators agreeing not to serve alcoholic drinks due to the reason for the ride. They probably make more $$$ out of coffees anyway (?)

I wouldnt expect it to be against their licence at 10am. I can understand the agreement with organisers not to serve alcohol due to the nature of the ride. Visiting the Oko without having a beer! Doesnt quite seem right! might have to swing by on the way home and have 2 to make up for it.
