Following is a copy and paste of a letter to the membership in SA, FYI
Here's hoping we get a few along
I had sent everyone a letter to introduce myself and mentioned a date for a ride but had to finalise plans before sending out details
G'day again,
I've heard back from a couple of people who can't make it and from one who is keen, I'm hoping the rest of you are waiting with baited breath for news about the upcoming ride.
Ok, here it is
SRA SA INAUGURAL RIDE 15 MARCH 2015
As it's our first ride it'll be a meet and greet with a shortish ride involved, we'll stop for a coffee at about 11 and lunch about 12.30 - 1 O'clock
to make it central for most ( we have members from Munno Para to Victor Harbor) I thought we would meet at the On The Run servo, South Rd St Mary's for a 10 O'clock departure
We'll travel along
South Rd
Daw's Rd
Springbank Rd
Belair Rd
Sheok Rd
Upper sturt Rd
to the mount Lofty summit where we'll stop for coffee or what ever your choosing
about 45 minutes later head back down the hill to
Stirling and follow Strathalbyn Rd to
Aldgate
Mylor
and Echunga, where we'll stop at the Hagen Arms hotel for lunch
They have an a La Carte menu $16 - 29, but on that day they also start a $12 schnitzel menu, so there should be something for everyone.
After a leisurely lunch and much story telling (whether they be true or not * winking) and getting to know each other, we can then head home our own way
I would really appreciate it if you would reply to this email and let me know if you can make it along to the ride as the pub would like to have an idea of numbers.
As I said on my introductory letter, if you know a shadow rider who is not a member please invite them along for the ride, everyone is welcome.
Now this is a Shadow Riders Australia ride but if you have mates who don't ride a shadow (even though there tastes need improving * happy) they too are welcome
As there are a couple of members who did not supply an email address or phone number with their registration, I will cut and paste this email onto the forum, please log in and have a look and feel free to have a say on there too, some of the other state members don't believe there is such a thing as SRA SA, so prove them wrong
Finally, please put some thought as to where you would like to ride to in the future and consider leading the ride, DooD has mentioned to me that at some stage there will be a ride to Bordertown to meet up with some of our Mexitorian members who are keen to find out if it is true that there is a branch of the SRA alive in SA
Hope to meet you on the 15th of March
Keep the shiny side up
