NEWSLETTER JULY 2019 It looks and feels as if we are going to have a long winter. Mid-June, we had the first heavy rainfall and I believe it did affect the Western Cape badly. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Delphius for being instrumental in getting all the new members on board with Wing Riders SA. We hope to see these members at our Chapter runs on 21 July 2019 and at Chapter AGM on 17 August 2019. We wish all the Wing Riders a speedy recovery and may your health go from strength to strength.

Our weekend started off with an arrangement to meet at Buffelsjag for breakfast at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, 21st March. André and Amorita had left early the morning and was there well before the meeting time and we agreed for him to carry on. Donny and Suzette were so eager to get to George, they missed the breakfast. Delphius decided to leave that same morning from Calvinia, and that was 800 km from George, so he was not going to make breakfast. Great ride to George, with roadworks along the way. On arrival at Loerie Guest Lodge, we met up...

Allan and Linda Casey became members of Wing Riders SA many years ago and worked very hard for our Association over the years. Allan became an Honorary Member in 2009. It is not clear why Linda was not also bestowed this honour at the time, but Wing Riders SA was able to correct this gross error this past Sunday, 24 February 2019, by making Linda an Honorary Member too. Congratulations, Linda.

Motorists on the N12 and the N4, and spectators in Middelburg, were treated to a spectacular sight this weekend. The public had an exciting opportunity to view ridiculously cool, rare, sought-after and beautiful motorcycles and trucks – together. Wing Riders of South Africa and friends, and Big Rigs, rode together on Sunday, 24 February, from Johannesburg to Middelburg. The Honda Gold Wing is internationally known as “the bike that makes you smile”. To have had the opportunity to see these motorcycles, riding in convoy with huge, powerful, shiny, well-loved trucks, created several goosebumps moments. Wing Riders of South Africa prides...

Written by / geskryf deur Amorita Engelbrecht Wat sal ons nie alles doen vir die Wing Riders nie! Ons staan om 5 v.m. in Gordonsbaai op. André wil seker maak ons is betyds by ons bymekaarkomplek in Melkbosstrand. Dit is lekker koel en windstil. Dit is verbasend hoeveel verkeer daar om 6 v.m. op 'n Sondag op die pad is. Ons is sowaar eerste, 'n halfuur te vroeg, die hoenders het sopas opgestaan! Ons het net afgeklim toe kom Kraai aangevlieg, ons drink koffie en kry die eerste geselsies agter die rug. Die res kom so stuk-stuk aan. Feroza bederf...

Written by Amorita Engelbrecht André was nie lus vir 'n warm vrou op die Wing in warm Worcester nie, so ons is direk na Malmesbury, en weet dus nie wat die res in Worcester gedoen het nie.  Dit was 'n heerlike rit van Gordonsbaai tot in Malmesbury, lekker koel en windstil.  In Malmesbury was Deon en Lizbe al slaggereed vir die Gold Wing-inval.  Ons het lekker gesels terwyl ons vir die res gewag het. Igsaan en Feroza daag later op met 'n versameling heerlike samoosas. Ons het sommer dadelik begin proe. Na 'n veilige maar warm rit, kom die res...
