Club lunch run to Barrydale this Sunday 13th December (Road ride)

Good morning Geoff Am curious to know how many members have expressed an interest in this ride? Graham

I'm interested

This ride will be led by Dave Higgs. The menu is varied and includes hearty breakfasts that are served until 11am, thereafter they serve a light lunch for example toasted sandwiches and they also serve pizzas, traditional Karoo lamb curries, their famous Cape Malay Bobotie, Chicken Pot Pie and Venison dishes as well as fabulous salads. The price for the lunch is between R59 and R79 p/p. They are famous for their Sunday Roast which includes Roast Lamb, Pork and Vegetables. "''At the front of every adventure is a BMW''"

This ride is on our normal Breakfast ride schedule BUT is a lunch ride in order for us to have a great days ride through some excellent scenery in both directions. We usually have about 20 people on rides like these. We only know the numbers on Sunday morning at the departure venue. We then telephone through the numbers with an ETA to the Country Pumpkin in order for them to have tables booked for us. The Country Pumpkin offers a Sunday Roast (3 course) for about R80.00 and believe me, I was not able to eat it all. There are other choices as well from their menu. Dereck, the owner ensures that his restaurant is very biker friendly. Country Pumpkin has excellent service and an outstanding food selection. If some of you reading this have not been to the CP then now is your chance. See you all on Sunday 08h30 for 09h00 departure. This is the last "club ride" for 2009.

This is going to be a very enjoyable ride I am sure. Unfortunately I have other commitments this weekend so can't make it!

I was thinking of bringing my 12 year old along as pillion on her first long distance ride. Is this ride appropriate for that?

Yes it certainly should be as it will be a nice and easy ride.

I'll see you all there. 'Ave a good ride, Loz STARCOM SOUTH AFRICA - DEALER AND DISTRIBUTOR www.starcom1.co.za LONGWAY MOTO - Motorcycle Tours and Rentals www.longwaymoto.co.za Longway Moto 79 Roeland Street, Cape

Alas! :) :) :) My motorbike has all it's skin taken off and sent to be zebra'd.. So no, I'll not be there, but that route sounds 'oh so cool!' so I'll miss being with y'all Inglsman

Unfortunately my wife has a birthday on Sunday so instead of enjoying a great ride to Barrydale I will be enjoying a lunch with friends [hers] at an expensive restuarant. [Guess who's paying - no prizes! :) ]
