the following is cut and pasted from the national memorial ride setion due to its relevance to the WA ride....
--------------------------------------------------------
Ok now we have done troggy's ride and spoke about the memorial ride at lunch. This is what we have come up with.
we do a multi meet both north and south of the river at the same meet points as troggy's ride. I trust grey shadow will lead the southern meet point and ride up to the general meet point. Which will be at the Peak servo on Great Northern Hwy and McDonald st Herne Hill. The northern meet point will be my place with a departure time of 1050-1100hrs so as to arrive at the Peak servo no later than 1115hrs for a departure time of 1130hrs, arriving at the BBQ facilities about 15 mins later. After the initial settling/look around, we then assemble at the higher of the 2 BBQ's to recite the "ODE to the Shadow Riders" ( see bottom of my posts ). This is to be recited in the same rhythm as the traditional "Lords Prayer", after which we then observe 1 mins silence. ... then onto the steak ;D... As mentioned on the w/end this formula is a trial run & can be tweaked/modified to get it right as per the members agree-ance. Since this will not be "just" a ride as per usual and repeated year after year it is important to have the members input to make this work.
louie.
PS:- last Sunday in May is the 26th

Bit of feed back.... I have been approached by some of our members on an individual basis about the format for this ride... It appears that the idea of the "ODE to the Shadow Rider" is not wanted and neither is the minutes silence... so true to form about getting this format right, lets drop these parts and just enjoy the BBQ ( don't forget to bring your meat ) and when the worse case scenario eventually happens, we can just remember that person in our own way...
louie...
BTW - Sunday is forecast to be 24 & fine... such a tough life we have here in the great independent sovereign republic of Westralia.... truly Gods country ;D ;D .... and no dobbers ;D ;D ... let the invasion begin ;D ;D
