ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE TRAINING SESSION ON SUNDAY 19 FEB:

The day is intended to be a fun day with a Level 1 Group and a TWO Level 2 Groups

Remember it's all intended to be a fun learning experience and there should be no need for stress.  No need to do anything you feel is above your  level of comfort.

Cost will be R200 per person for the day.

The venue is a farm in Stellenbosch.  Rather than have everyone trying to find the farm, we'll all meet at Donford at 0830 on Sunday morning where you can fill up with fuel if you need to, and have a cup of coffee while we wait.

I shall be bringing water to drink, tools and puncture repair kits, but bring a few sandwiches and cooldrinks for a picnic lunch at midday.  After the training those that want to can join us at Beuena Vista Cafe nearby for a review of the day's events.

what is covered in each level?

Hi Pete, would the course content be roughly the same as the two workshops held in Stellenbosch for the ladies?

Where are you planning on doing the training?

TRAINING

Excuse my ignorance, but would you mind giving more info on the exact nature of the training? I've never attended club training before (or any other training for that matter) and would like to know what I'll be letting myself in for before saying "I do"...

Level 1

Hi PeterO,

 

I assume this is only open for paid-up club members? I'm a member but my wife is not. Still trying to convince her....

I think she can benefit by this level 1 training seeing as there is quite a few ladies attending. The training with men could be a bit intimidating.

 

please let me know? I have done similar training through Country Trax.

NON-CLUB MEMBERS, NON-BMW RIDERS

Pete, Any open spaces still left for level 1?

Two of my riding buddies are also keen to join.

Problem is:

  • None are club members
  • One rides a 1200 GSA, the other a KTM 990

Dorp St is the WRONG address ... the correct one is on the R44.  On the left as you ride from Stellenbosch towards Somerset West.   Just after the Technopark

No problem.  They are welcome to join.  The Level1 isn't full at all.
The more people that train, the safer for all.

Meeting at Donfords - cycle race same time

Hi Pete

The Medallion Cycle funride is taking place in Stellenbosch on Sunday, and the short route starts at 08h00-08h45 - route goes right past Donfords. This will not affect anyone coming from the Annandale road/Somerset West side, but anyone coming from Kuilsrivier and/or Durbanville and/or Helshoogte will be affected. Will PM you with the cycle route details; perhaps another meeting place would work better.

Thanks Karin; too short notice I'm afraid.

Unfortunately I have been contacted by some riders who are away this week and wanted to know before they left, where we would be meeting.  I'm not in contact with them and they don't have access to internet, so they are expecting to meet at Donfords, and also to fill up there if needs be.

We'll have to just leave home earlier and wait for those who don't see this notice, if they are a little late.

So to ensure there is no confusion, everyone leave home a bit earlier WE ARE STILL MEETING AT DONFORDS!

Cheers & Thanks Karin

Pete
