lekka ladies !!  

ABSOLUTELY!!!! Most of the RR's here are done by a bunch of GUYS....just imagine if we had the same attitude......There would be hardly ANY ride reports.... ot: eepwall: :biggrin:

Dear Sirs. The guys don't know how to have half the fun we had which is why they can't afford to be a little sketchy with the details.  We can be sketchy and have loads to share > > ot:

So then......share! :biggrin:

Yes a great weekend sorry I lost you guys at the end really thought you had turned onto the freeway and then once I was on could not backtrack. I guess it reitterates the importance of keeping the person behind you in your mirror even if ir means you have to ride a little slower. Frustrating as that may be

Great Stuff all-- :mwink:

I remember hitting that water crossing that runs next to the railway tracks one year in mid-winter at Full speed --It was frozen Solid and i thought it was a concrete slab --  :

Another awesome ladies weekend ...  :

Thanx to Misty for arranging & to Lisa for leading the way.  Dakota for playing "sign post" & to Malibu for making sure all were ok along the way.

The hospitality at Val was excellent & the company great fun.  It was so nice to meet some new biker ladies.

A special thanx to Racing Chic ... we had an awesome  :thumleft: mother-daughter biking weekend.  Not too often you hear that one  :mwink:

I now have to comment.  For an entire weekend everyone waited for you at every intersection.  No matter how long it took.  Everyone made sure you were fine.  It’s what we do when riding together.  You just taking a turn-off was entirely NOT ok.  Funny thing is that you have done this enough times before that while we sat for ages waiting for you, we had already assumed you had done it again.  Watching the rider behind you does not mean that the rider in front of you has to ride at your speed on TAR when we are stopping every 20 odd km’s anyway.  The responsibility for the rider in front of you is to make you aware of direction changes, as per ride briefing.  For heaven sakes, you state you ride dirt at 130, but can’t even ride with a group on tar unable to exceed 120 due to the small bikes on the ride.  Also, you mentioned to TG on the phone you had assumed we had got tired of waiting for you… why, we had done just that since Saturday morning!  You volunteered to be back marker, we assumed you would be experienced enough to know we would never turn without you being made aware of it.

You hinting that the rider in front of you was at fault for you leaving the road is not ok!  You left it and should be apologizing to us for making us worry and wait for ages, with every intention of riding back to find you… guess we were lucky you answered your phone before all that happened.  Actually, I’m rather stunned that you tried to blame someone else.

I personally detest confrontation, but heng, this has happened enough times before for something to be said.  Enough people have discussed your riding etiquette for it to be general knowledge.  You are either part of the group, or you are not!  Selfish riding is not acceptable in group riding! 

Like what I say or not, it does not matter, problem now is how many times do you cry wolf, and what happens if the wolf really appears!

I regret if this puts a dampner on anyones feelings, but a few girls are already feeling a bit shattered by the comment made.

Absolutely! Thanks for coming to look for me TravelGravel  ;D Glad I could help with the umm clothing issue  :imaposer:
To all the girls - Thank you, I had an awesome time. It was so good to get to know you all better.
To Malibu - would definitely be interested in the sand riding course - so I can be like Jet Li and Fearless 

 

[shivahamiw]

Except for the Taz/TravelGravel clothing issue  :dousing: - i have to totally agree with Taz!
It was a super weekend, with a super bunch of girls!  Cheers for waiting for me at the turn-offs, it's good to know I won't be left behind.
What amazes me is how much we all have to talk about & how easily we all get on - definitely something we should do more often!
Thanks to everybody who put in effort to plan & lead & educate  :thumleft:

Just sooo sorry Misty couldn't join 

 

[TravelGravel]

How many times must I say this...... there was no clothing issue.... Clothing is no longer an issue once you take it off...  >

[Misty]

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry I missed this one girl - purely by default Glad you had a good time and that all went well!!! 

 

[Great White]

Please when is the next ladies weekend? So that I can get rid of my wife for another weekend No make that a month :imaposer:
Taz loved it so much she couldn't stop ganning on about it.

 

[user 6166]

Ohhh right... guess who will miss me if I go for a month!

Anyway, a huge thanks to Chantal for allowing me to squat at her place waiting for my hubby to get home!  :thumleft:
We will surely go for some rides together soon.

 

[wildside]

Well done !  Almost proud of you girls.
A pity about the dirty laundry.  :nono:

Thanks everyone for a fab evening around the fire, the photo's speak for themselves, it is really nice to get to know everyone on a personal level and to meet new friends.  My new bike behaved beautifully and was in her element, especially in the sand :mwink:
The riding was great and the weather was perfect.  I do apologise for a couple of turn-arounds we had to do, silly GPS is misleading and I am still a noob at reading it  :-[ but, we got to where we needed to be and had a sceninc route  :ricky:
I support Malibu's thoughts, it is very important to stay together as a pack when riding, unless otherwise decided, prior to the ride.  :deal:
We were not going very fast and stopped regularly for re-grouping, it is imperative we can rely on one another. If one of us goes missing, it is always a concern, not only because we are woman, but, because we never leave a dog behind.  As the leader of the ride, I feel responsible and will go back to find anyone who has not joined the group at a re-group spot.
Misty, you were missed and I hope you will be at the next one, even if you drive to it, until you are back on 2 wheels  :biggrin:
