The Coastal Biker. 11. An Independent Newsletter for the Coastal Bikers The Coastal Biker newsletter: 16-03-2016 First of all some Feedback: This weekend was the RATEL RALLY 2016: The Ratel Rally was powered by the Dirty Dozen in aid of the Bikers Benevolent Fund. As always The Ratel Rally was a well organised rally with plenty assistance if required. The attendance was a little disappointing from the Port Elizabeth Bikers. But I suppose thats Because the Buffalo Rally is next weekend and the way the rand is now it makes it difficult for most of us to do two Rallies in a row. But the 500 + that were there had a great jol. I met lots of brothers from other mothers there, and we consumed huge amount of liquids. The weather started off a bit wet but this was an old school Rally’ and all old school bikers don’t even look at the weather. There were a lot of long distant travellers, Different clubs from Namibia, A couple from Upington, the guys from the Westrand, a few from Jhb and from Cape Town This Beautiful Foxy Lady rode alone from past Cape Town. I was pleasantly surprised to see Mark A Redhead all the way from Australia at the Ratel. E’tienne Le Roux rides for Ulysses SA Durban On Friday night even in my slightly intoxicated state I was not too stupid. I met this gent and when he started telling me about his biking life I thought dam I must remember this so I video recorded the interview with him about his travels. When I played it back On Monday I was disgusted at my slur and surprised, wondering how he even understood what I was asking him. Anyway here is what it was about: E’tienne Le Roux comes from Natal and is almost 70 years old and spends most of his retired life travelling from Rally to Rally. Etienne is living the dream a lot of us would love to do. Etienne rides a Dyno Switchback Harley Davidson, with 184 000km on the clock. Etienne has been to the 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 Sturgis Bike Rallies in America and the amount of bikes been recorded at these Rallies have been up to 1500 000. But these are not rallies in one campsite these are Bike Rallies that take over the whole town and the surrounding areas. Etienne says “Everything in America is Big” Etienne has also ridden the South African route 62 and the American route 66 from the East to the West Coast right across America. E’tienne Le Roux you a Legend. Early Saturday morning Avril De Klerk left the Ratel Rally on his Bicycle and went for a 120km ride to raise awareness and funds for the BBF. Well done Avril Here are a few pics, but I have been ask not to be long winded with too much shit because of peoples band width or something This is Old School, cleaning bike with your colors. The whole weekend was a blast and the music was great and the bar prices and service was fantastic. And thank you to the CMA for always being there for us with your coffee tent. Thank you Eddie, Rob, Franco, Natasha, Owen and all the Dirty Dozen for all the hard work and making this the Ratel Rally to remember. Bikers of the Eastern Cape; The Ratel Rally is organised to raise funds for the BBF. The BBF is there to Assist Biker in Need. Nobody plans to be in a position when you require help.

Imagine being in the pits at this prestigious event, and get a chance to ride up the route once or twice. Probably a run (maybe 2) at lunchtime each day. So what an opportunity! You will get pit space; a pit pass and lots more. There is no better way to see this event than from the inside, in the pits. So let’s see if we can make a weekend of this. Please RSVP to myself or directly to Bill, but it would be great to put a team together, and support the event. GRMC Car/Bike show: All historic (pre 1989 as a guideline) and interesting (classic) racing bikes are invited, but due to space, a selection will be made for display bikes. We are hoping to have a bigger tent than last year for the bikes. Date: Sunday 1st May (Monday is public holiday) Requirements/Entries: We would like to have a list of all interested owners with details and pics of their bikes by 15 th February. Simola Hillclimb We are currently looking into getting a tent for this event to use as pits. This will be a ‘Parade’ to display the machines to the public, there is no timing allowed. Only bikes pre 1985 will be considered for selection. Bike numbers will be limited and selection done by the committee. Date: May 6th -8th 2016 Requirements/Entries: We would like to have a list of all interested owners with details and pics of their bikes by 15 th February. Contact e mail [email protected] For those wishing to do both events, Bill has plenty of space to leave bikes and trailers at his residence.

The 87-year-old had just finished his morning jog and wasn't even short of breath. The 80-year-old was amazed at the guy's stamina and asked him what he did to have so much energy. The 87-year-old said, "Well, I eat rye bread every day. It keeps your energy > level high, and you'll have great stamina with the ladies." So, on the way home the 80-year-old stopped at the bakery. As he was looking around, the saleslady asked if he needed any help. He said, "Do you have any rye bread?" She said, "Yes, there's a whole shelf of it. Would you like some?" He said, "I want 5 loaves." She said, "My goodness, 5 loaves! By the time you get to the 3rd loaf, it'll be hard." He replied, "I can't believe everybody knows about this shit but me." ############## A woman visited a psychic of some local repute. In a dark and gloomy room, gazing at the Tarot cards laid out before her,the Tarot reader delivered the bad news; "There is no easy way to say this so I'll just be blunt, prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year." Visibly shaken, the woman stared at the psychic's lined face, then at the single flickering candle, then down at her hands. She took a few deep breaths to compose herself. She simply had to know. She met the Tarot reader's gaze, steadied her voice, and asked: "Will I get away with it? ################## Three Irishmen are sitting in the pub window seat, watching the front door of the brothel over the road. The local Methodist pastor appears, and quickly goes inside. "Would you look at that!" says the first Irishman. "Didn't I always say what a bunch of hypocrites they are?" No sooner are the words out of his mouth than a Rabbi appears at the door, knocks, and goes inside. "Another one trying to fool everyone with pious preaching and stupid hats!" They continue drinking their beer roundly condemning the vicar and the rabbi when they see their own Catholic priest knock on the door. "Ah, now dat's sad." says the third Irishman. "One of the girls must have died. ################# Advice From Women To Men 1. The reason why our bras don't always match our underwear is because WE actually change our underwear. 2. The next time you and your buddies joke about armed women in combat, take a poll to see which of you successfully aim at the toilet rim. 3. If we're watching football with you--it's not bonding--it's their butts. 4. Whenever possible, please try to say whatever you have to say after the movie. 5. Lay off the beans several hours before bedtime. 6. Please don't drive when you're not driving. 7. If you were really looking for an honest answer, you wouldn't ask in bed. 8. The next time you joke about female drivers, research the number of accidents caused by rubber-necking miniskirts. 9. If only women gossip, Then how do you and your friends keep track of "who's easy"? 10. Stop telling us most male strippers are gay: we don't care. 11. When you're not around, I belch loudly, too. 12. We don't mind if you look in the mirror to check your appearance – in fact -- please do !!! 13. When you're out with us, please wear "our" favorite outfit rather than "yours" -- the torn jeans and dirty T-Shirt will last longer that way. 14. If you must grunt in reply, please develop a system to indicate a positive vs a negative grunt. 15. Don't insist that we "get off the stupid phone" and then not talk to us. 16. Eye contact is best established above our shoulder-level. 17. Cleaning the house is not necessarily "women's work"; besides, most of the "dirt" and clutter is yours anyway. 18. Yes, we know most of the great chefs are men, why is it then you never want to cook? 19. We go to the Ladies Room in groups to talk about you. ############# Next week I have got some good ones from Cor but you will just have to wait. ################## Thanks guys for Supplying me with Jokes:...
