Been waiting for these dates, booked level one & two!

Last year John and I decided that every 3rd week of the month would be good and I announced it at the club meeting ... then the ladies got involved and fixed our thinking :-) 

We hadn't considered the public and school holidays so the 3rd week wasn't ideal.  Thanks to Jaime and Anna-Marie we now have more workable dates.

We can still accommodate a couple of LEVEL 1 and Level 2 riders on this training day.  As it is riding season and a lot of new riders with their new sexy GS's on the road, come and join us in this fun filled day. This is a training day to exercise and improve on your skills and to encourage your confidence....bonding with your GS is time well spend.  Bookings closing on 17/02/2015.  Please mail me at annamarie@wine-ways.co.za as Jaime is on leave.  Proof of payment will confirm your booking.  Looking forward to some newcomers.

I am booked for level 1 on 29 March. I would like to know payment details, as I will be going away next week during the week and wanted to secure my booking through payment before I go on holiday. Thanks.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make tomorrow's training. My radiator decided to start leaking and my bike won't be fixed in time. 

I cannot make the April date, but would someone please put my name down for level one on 31 May.

Please make use of the new online booking facility for our next training day 19 April. Level 1 & 2 and Pillion:  Online Booking

There are still space available for Level 1 & 2.  We need to finalise numbers on Wednesday, 16 Apr.  Proof of payment serves as your confirmation. Pls mail proof of payment to Annamarie@wine-ways.co.za   For any further enquiries do not hesitate to contact John Carr at Donford Stellenbosch  021 8884260 or Peter O'Hanlon on 083 3751299.  See you there for a fun day 

Please take note that the training for Level 1, 2 & Pillions for 28 June has been cancelled due to school holidays, hunting trips, tours to Namibia & all the adventurous things we GS riders do this time of the year.  Any booking and/or payment will be carried forward to the 26 July 2015 training day, Anura Vineyards.  Please make use of the online booking system on the Forum under training to book any training day or click on:

Julie and I are coming to the training this Sunday (26th July).  I was worried about riding out to Klapmuts early on Sunday, with her not having ridden in a while.  But I found a wonderful solution - we have booked ourselves into a BnB (Muldersvlei Estate) in Klapmuts.  So we can ride up at our leisure on Saturday.

Our fantastic adventure (ok, you had to be there) that we made of this training weekend is described here.

This serves as a reminder of this upcoming weekend Level 1 & 2 Off road training dd 30 Aug at Anura Vineyards.

Hi All, I'm keen to join you on 20 Sept. Is there a curriculum for the level II that a past participant or instructor might share?

I'm looking forward to it, and will hopefully see some of you soon.

Hi Anna-Marie

Can you please confirm what the Level 1 training course entails.  

Still recovering from a reattached bicep tendon, and 06 Dec being just under 3 months post op, I was wondering how strenuous Level 1 would be on the arms. Except for having to lift a downed bike (to learn how to lift it), is there anything else that could potentially be a problem.

May one just observe a specific part of the training, where you feel you are unable to possibly do it?

I've recently bought a G650GS and can't wait to get that Level 1 under the belt :)
Thank you 

Tarryn
 

On 6 Dec we will host the LAST training day for 2015.  As bookings are filling up quickly, dont delay to confirm your booking.  As always we are treated as VIP's at Anura Vineyards and using their facilities a priviledge. Beautiful views with the wine tasting and beer brewery a cool reward after a hard day's work.

This is a training day to exercise and improve on your skills and to encourage your confidence....bonding with your GS is time well spend.  There is a continual focus on safety, so good riding gear is important and nobody should feel pressured to do anything they are uncomfortable with - if you bear that in mind you'll enjoy the day and probably come back for more!

To improve your more advanced skills come out and book for the Level 2 group.  John & Neels have a newly laid out track full of surprises. 

Level 1, 2 and a pillion group will be accommodated on this day, as per the norm.  

See you soon for a day of fun with your dream machine.  

Please make use of the online booking system Online Booking or contact me on annamarie@wine-ways.co.za / 082 8991169

In the meantime, Keep it safe and have fun

See soon

Any dates for 2016?

In my experience, it is usually the last Sunday of each month
