Hello ,

I am willing to help out any way I can to ride, I have 3 cheap Giovanni's and kids, 15,18,21 who want to ride including myself. I am willing to buy a better bike if this will be an ongoing sport. Please PM me with any information.

hello,

Thanks. the www.rcpra web site does not work? If there is anything we can do to help get things going let me know and I'll see if we can help out. I have the week of Aug5 - Aug 10 off. I'm just waiting for my ebay helmet (going on 2 weeks now) but I think it should arrive this week. If you like I can PM you my email address.

I would like to get something going this weekend, but I think we need to get at least 6 riders out.
Are all 3 of you available? Which day works better for you, Sat or Sun? I know Tru3 is up for some riding before he has to go to work on either day, and I am available for both days. 3+me+Tru3+some others=FUN.

I will have to keep working on some other guys that haven't been out for a while. It was pretty encouraging to talk to some new people yesterday.

hello,

after talking with you guys I stopped by Wal Mart and picked up a cheap set of pads until I can find something better. I'll recieve the helmets today! I checked the tracking number and they are out for delivery. My oldest son (21) is nursing a broken ankle right now with 9 pins and a plate, we are going out today to look at some Cags to start him off when he gets better. My youngest son (15) is working Saturday at A&W but my middle son (1 I believe has the weekend off. I can also bring a friend who is seriously looking at the sport and lend him a Cag to use so I should be able to bring two other riders. My friend will have to use his DOT approved snowmobile helmet that is all he has until his ebay helmet arrives? I think it was constructed in the 70's :-D. I can ride anytime after 4:00 today, I'm on my last week of holidays so if you also want to ride in the afternoon I can join you otherwise I'm there!

So it sounds like Sunday is best then? As for the helmet, as long as it is a "real" helmet (and preferably full-face), then it is fine. No Harley-style half shells with the metal spike are allowed! The safety gear requirements are posted in the Winnipeg forum as a "sticky."

We are pretty much exclusively a weekend-only club. We have ridden Friday nights in the past, which have always been a lot of fun, but at this stage we need to build our numbers up a little bit before we can get back into that.

So I guess a two spike helmet isn't good either? I believe that his helmet is not a full face but one of the older ones that had a snap on "bubble visor" it is DOT approved, I did recieve my helmets today finally. I'll ride anytime you can put together a time and place and bring at least one other rider with me with a Cag if not two.
