Hi all

Just joined the list, wondering if anyone here is from SA and if there are
any riding clubs looking for new members. Do a lot of solo riding (Live in
Sellicks) but would like to ride with others. I am in god's own riding
heaven here, ride my CBR1000F everyday (no cage) and looking for other like
minded riders.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Al

Alan,

Head to http://www.cruzn.net.au/ - email webmaster (Callan) and he'll
add you to the mailing list - friendly bunch of guys, pretty quiet in
cold/wet weather though. Regular weekend rides in summer through
hills/Strath/etc and also Friday nights up and down Eagle on the Hill.

Say hello from me...

Stefan (ex CBR1000F owner!)

Thanks Stef

Why did you let go of the CBR? I am off to Central Vic this weekend, coupla
days there, coupla days back, give the old girl a proper run

Did you find the bike a bit buzzzy at the handlebars? I find it tends to
put my hands to sleep. Thank god for the cruise control!

Cheers

Al

If you are near Maldon on saturday then I recommend the Motorcyclists
Emporium, a working restoration shop for old bikes which has a smallish but
excellent selection of both restored and unrestored motorcycles and
memorabilia on display. Entry to the display by throwing a gold coin in the
thingy near the front of the shop.

Me to I lurk about here, SA ppl are too slack to organise a group ride I
assume.

The only group ride I have seen here is when someone like zebee comes over.

love to go for a ride sometime though.

Noone is going to organise group rides if everyone else is lurking.

I had no trouble finding a group to ride with last time I was in South
Australia.. lets see.. there was me, Steve O. also from Melbourne, BTH from
Canberra and BigIain from Sydney. Actually we spent most of the time drinking
in a bar in Port Augusta, ten pin bowling in Woomera and watching BTH fix his
bike on the side of the road in between :/

So organise it.

You announce it here a couple of times, and see who says OK and who
turns up.

That's how these things work you know....
