From Karen It is my understanding, from our last meeting, that we pay the full amount on the day to the trainers, and we then get reimbursed by the Club, so bring your money to your training course. Cheers Karen

JUST A QUICK UPDATE SPEAKING WITH ROSS TODAY.
FOR THE SATURDAY BASIC SKILLS COURSE THEY WILL BE BRINGING ALONG TWO YAMAHA SCORPIOS, FOR THOSE THAT ARE A LITTLE UNCOMFORTABLE TO USE THERE OWN BIKES FOR SOME TESTS.
ALSO THEY NOW ARE ACREDITED RIDE FORE-EVER TRAINERS SO THE SUNDAY TRAINING COSTS MAY BE REDUCED, AND RUN IT AS A RIDE FOREVER GOLD COURSE. FURTHER DISCUSSION WILL BE HAD ON SATURDAY.
