    Ladies in a male dominated field =)

    At the MCRCWA meeting on Weds: Cee4 offered to the floor EOI: Ladies only ride day
    After exploring if he had gender reassignment (hahaha)...or looking for hidden agenda, they finally moved on to:


    Would the club consider it.....................................yep\\

    Minimum numbers........................................... .....at least 20 riders (to make it feasible) the same as any group

    If you have a wife, honey, mummy sister....any female that might be interested in this....
    then please post up!~

    My friends wives (x3)
    (Riding buddies) x8
    Colleagues (Drs and Nurses) x4

    and thats just my own little head brainstorming....
    Fee will be as per a normal rideday, approx $170, tho I am willing to go hat in hand and BEG for a discount =)



    additfrom the club)
    Leanne (recently back from NZ), Denise (come on borrow Bens bike), Mrs Donsy, Anita, Neatz (my beautiful medic friend can borrow my bike)
    Susan (so let your honey babysit)
    Aidan and Mason....lend your mummy a bike!
    Turbz...Maya wants in, right???
    the scrutineering girls
    the grid girls

    ha ha ha, how cool will that be to see our Women Officials riding around. Our own club bar manager has bought the club zx10 - and once again official becomes rider, very kool!

    Our club needs $$$ ... please come support or find us some =)

    Surely you'd just give her the ZX, it's a bit of a girls bike, isn't it

    Nat, I think these are the new name for the Racecraft days... Ride Dayz .. ??
    I would be happy to do these days.
    I don't seem to have enough competitiveness to get a booking in the first place, usually.

    I was also at the MRCR meeting this was discussed at and I usually volunteer trackside to help out on the Ridedays/Racecraft days. I really would encourage any women who have thought they might like to give this a go then this ladies only group would be a really good place to start.

    All the coaches are really lovely and have years of experience. I've seen them give one on one tuition to people who felt they needed it, and they are very willing to give the help where needed. All coaches and officials are there because they love riding, they are not paid to be there, and, as The Nurse has already said, we give our time and expertise because we genuinely want to help people develop their riding skills.

    Come on, give it a go
    They misunderestimated me.

    I'm sure Jodsta would be keen to do this but would need more info.
    She's not been to the race-track before and has only completed the ARD @ AHG/RAC...would she be welcome...Day/date info dependent.

    Thing is Tina
    I've been pushing this for a while inside Ridedays/Racecraft and there's always one person who seems to have reservations about the idea.
    I think it's great idea as I said the other night I've done the photos for the Trakdayz run ladies days and there's always an interest. You get a heap of ladies turning up in their leathers or riding gear and the guys come to watch.
    This seems to spark an interest in them who haven't done a ride day before too.
    So I'm all for it.
    You get the numbers i think we can sell it.

    So ladies, at the mo it is an EOI.
    If the club get the numbers, we can book it, date pending.
    So, if you WANT to do it, can you send me a pm.

    This is the same as the ladies only day run by trackdayz. Practice on the track :-)
    like I said earlier....need at least 20

    how bout a men only day, how would that go down?

    why cant ladys just come to the track like everyone else and what would the club benifit from it? arnt the days fairly bookes out as it is? and there is less time for practice this year so why would I have to miss out on precious practice time because I am not a lady?

    Don't confuse ladies only GROUP with DAY mate

    As was raised at the meeting, if only 15 ladies can commit & 10 more positions still need to be filled then business is business

    Everything else will be the norm
