    Hey Softy, I'm good to go for a country run Saturday, then do the wedding on Sunday.

    or if it suits others, do the wedding this week and plan a bigger ride next weekend so more people more can go?

    just throwing some ideas out there and see what happens.

    There is wooden boat racing at Goolwa on the 20th down at their aquatic center. Its free.

    Could be a good place to stop if you are down that way; they have a bar in the club house.

    If you do make it keep an eye out for a boat named Miss Lindy. We have just finished a sympathetic restoration and this will be her first outing since.

    Sunday's are about the only day I can sort of get out for a ride on weekends, as I play cricket nearly every Saturday until the end of February / early March.

    I'm probably looking for a longer ride than a quick blip around town. With the young bub, I need to make the most of my leave passes :). I would be keen to join on the Saturday, meet gepps cross is OK for me, up to Mannum sounds good. Let me know a start place and time and keep the rest of the details brief. Dont want to spell out our exact path :)

    P.S, for those who dont know me, Speeda is from my online gaming days of "Need for speed". I'm normally at the back of the pack ;)

    OK, wedding escort has it's own thread. see you there.

    who is still keen for a ride on Saturday? some are unable to do both. Wife said....

    Maybe we could look at Sunday 27th Jan. Australia Day weekend, so I think a public holiday on the Monday?

    This is in 2 weeks time, so plenty of notice for everyone to plan ahead. can't go wrong with a pub meal, but would be good if we threw in $5 or $10 each and had someone meet us with BBQ supplies and a few beers / drinks in the esky. an understanding missus or a mate without a bike to ride?

    Lads, what's the verdict? I'm going out tomorrow regardless, but would be good if there was a group of us. A pub meal and a beer at the Mannum hotel would be good with some company.. So, lets meet at Gepps Cross as proposed by GT and go from there?? Where is a good place to meet, the obvious is home maker centre, out front of subway??

    If this weekend doesnt work, no sweat, i'll meet and greet you all on the next ride!

    Cheers!

    Wrapping up the details for the first meet and greet for 2013.

    It appears, from those posting above, will be at Glenelg this Sun and coinciding with Tux's brothers wedding. See the Wedding escort thread for all the details.

    I'm taking my boat out tomorrow, GT is under the thumb on Sat (sorry mate - you can take it out on me on Sun) and Softy looks like playing cricket. Not sure on anyone else.

    GT - you wanna start another thread for your Gepps Cross - Hahndorf idea, we can do pro and cons for dates in that thread.
    Me, I'd like to see two rides a month, maybe 1st and 3rd weekends to get together as I work last weeknds most months.

     Sounds like a great idea, 27th would be good. BBQ in the park would be good, even if we did a byo drinks, and chip in $ for food.  +=

    Welcome back Tim, glad you had a good break. This Monday I'm free to go for a ride as Sat & Sun busy with sport and family. I'm itching to go on another decent ride too. Keen in heading in another direction to the last couple rides for something different. What are other members doing, and what ideas do you guys have?
