Thank you for the ladies that contacted me to join in this training day. Nice to hear from new enthusiasts as well as some regulars.

The bookings will close on Friday, 24 AUG 2018: 10:00

To those ladies that cannot make it on the day and would like to contribute to the hamper of toiletries for homeless women can bring it to the next club meeting.  It will be much appreciated.

Have a safe week

Hi all

We are a bit worried about the current weather forecast for this upcoming Sunday ladies training.  The team is monitoring the weather and will make a final call on Friday.  

We will keep you posted.

It will be a pity to postphone this event, but the training team is already looking at an alternative date/s.

Have a fab week

Good morning Lady riders and Trainers

Oh what a beautiful morning...oh what a beautiful day.  Crispy and sunny winters Friday.

You are receiving this correspondence as u have booked and/or  are interested in the Ladies Training day, 26 August 2018.

Thank you for all the contacts and chats and meeting new girls.  It always so exciting to organise an event for us girls as they so enthusiast and eager to bond with their  dream machines....growing the lady riders community is such a priviledge.

The training team had a close look at the weather forecasts and discussions about the  upcoming weekend weather on different websites.  Unfortunately it seems we are in for a real cold, windy and wet weekend.  Our plans to have fun will be difficult to reach and the planned route will be unpleasant to ride.  It a real pity to postphone this event.

As so many of u requested me to have a date in future for this fun, lady training day, we had a look at the calender.  We herewith inform you to diarise 23 SEPT 2018 to partake in this event.

Please, inform me asap if you will be interested and yes, we can still contribute towards a needy case for women in shelters.  This can be an ongoing cause with a purpose.

I am so sorry to disappoint you ladies, but we just do'nt see the need to force ourselves in unpleasant weather.

Have  a warm weekend with your dear ones.  Blessings from above as we still need a lot f rain.

Friendly regards and stay in contact

We will meet at BMW Motorrad Donford Stellenbosch

Time: 08:30 for coffee and treats

Lunch en-route for your own account - we should be done by ± 14:00 to enjoy lunch.

COST:

There will be no fee charged, but each lady requested to bring a hamper of toiletries (±R100)  which will be donated to a worthy institution for women in need.  So many women begging on the streets.  Night shelters are in need for toiletries. It a pity to see these women on the streets that lost their dignity and self respect.  Let's make a contribution.  If you have an old unused handbag, add the toiletries in it and let's make someone smile.  Life is short!!
