Pink Ribbon 2008, anyone?

Discussion in 'Australian Motorcycles' started by Bob Milutinovic, Oct 5, 2008.

  1. Been a damned long time since I was here last, 'n' on checking can't see any
    mention of the Pink Ribbon ride since the beginning of January.

    Anyone here (other than me) participating this year? Hornsby to Pitt Town
    'n' back?

    - Bob.

    Just in case anyone is wondering there is no Pink Ribbon Ride in
    Melbourne this year. The people who had been organising it for the past
    5 years or so no longer wished to continue with the job and when
    replacements were found they did not believe they had the time and means
    available at short notice to organise the ride in time to the standard
    that had been achieved in the past. I believe it will be back in 2009.
    If you want to make a donation anyway.. good luck. There is no link
    on the official PRR website to any charitable organisation that might
    have wanted your money.

  5. Fantastic, guys; look forward to seeing you there.

    I'll be the one with a pair o' stress balls dangling from the front o' the
    bike (just as soon as I figure out how I'm going to affix 'em!), like these;

    Something tells me though that that won't be enough to win a prize, but
    bugger it, I'm not going for the prize anyway.

    - Bob.

  8. Indeed, wouldn't want to be using the ol' crown jewels as decorative
    ornaments on the bike, would we? :p

    See you there :)
