Memorial Ride

[Wombat]

Anyone going on the davo memorial ride on sat. I intend to probably leaving gosnells at 9.30-9.45 to be at Gingers at 10.30.

 

[Gavo]

I had no idea that Gingers was the orriginal name for the previous bissiness Old Timmers Talk

[Wombat]

Gingers has been the name since I can remember since about 1965 maybe.  The memory is fading though   
 

[Brock]

Yep, been Gingers since forever. I remember the the old Roadhouse, (shack with fuel pumps, and a real greasy spoon kitchen). Used to pop down from the RAAF base for a late night feed, there was no Bullsbrook back then (except for the Pub)

You know it's no longer an "official" FarRide now?

[Wombat]

Any excuse for a ride and not work

I hear a certain someone is laying claim to the name "Davo's Memorial Ride" too

Yes, that's partly why the upheaval at FarRiders ATM

had a great ride, good food, company and watched a great game of footy. Not a bad place for an RTE. 
weather was fantastic after threatening early

 
White still has the power

Glad to hear you had a good & safe ride

[Yorkie]

Good to hear you had a great ride, today would have worked for me, Saturdays are difficult.

[Wombat]

Thanks to all.    I was working between Lancelin and Cataby yesterday and came down between Brand Hwy and Ocean Road and drove on some good roads.    Maybe an RTE next year is on the cards to either Lancelin, Cervantes or Jurien for lunch

This memorial ride will always be held in September but not on a Fathers Day weekend out of respect for Willow's wishes.
A head count on the day had 42 riders and pillions in attendance and I have a count of 17Wrong  24 IBA rides under certification thanks to Toura's great effort.
