**Qkchk:Me** · 24th May 2006, 17:18

Ok Camp Mother and Kitchen bitch are back from invading the mainland! (In short, Qkchk and Qkkid are back home now...)

Sorry about the short notice but shit happens and there is only so much time in a day......... if ya get my drift.

What: A ride up north in da dark finishing with a cold one
When: Thursday night after work on the 25th May
Where: Shell WESTGATE (end of the North Western Motorway)
Why: To get your fix for the mid-week blues

Time: Meeting there from 6.30pm departing @ 7pm
Pace: Open to all (As long as you can ride at least 100kph - not to say that we ride that speed all the time in the dark)

I'm doin the rides not for so much the riding itself (very limited with time and what you can do with it) but the social get-together at the Speights Ale House (Oteha Valley Road, Albany) afterwards. So if you can't make the ride, try and make the pub and meet fellow Kbers! The food is fine and a huge variety of beers to choose from. We are there from 8pm onwards.

The route will be discussed on the night. For those worried about distance/time the ride will last for approx 1hr - 1half and is 70kms long. We start at Westgate and finish up at Albany.

- Remember I dont want to see anyone turn up with a tinted/irridium visor on! Any chance to lessen the risks we take in our riding the better! (If you dont have a clear visor, may I suggest buying/borrowing a pair of clear saftey glasses and keep ya tint visor up....)

- Darkness = Slower speeds (self explained...)

This ride is WEATHER PERMITTING - I will post up in the thread if it is postponed due to weather. I will decide on the day and post after 5pm.

Disclaimer: You participate on this ride at your own risk. I will not be held accountable for anyones actions, to/from and during the ride.. Anyone who is caught endangering others by their actions will be asked to leave the ride and may be refused entry to forthcoming rides! (As we have had seen in the past)

Hope you like the colour scheme back

If I can get my somewhat swollen and bruised leg over the bike I shall be there...

Who ever said motorcycling was dangerous? Running is much more hazardous to your health...

Oh no, what have you done to yourself?

**Keystone19** · 25th May 2006, 11:58

Wet, slippery rocks + running = very sore leg. Fortunately X Rays reveal no fracture, just swelling. I figure seeing as it's my right leg I don't have to do much with that so should be able to ride!
