Dear Motorcyclist
The Nomads Motorcycle Club invites you to attend the 2008 Springbok Motorcycle Rally to be held from the 19th to the 21st September 2008.
This year’s get together will again be held at the De Hoek Mountain Resort. The Resort is situated 35kms from Oudtshoorn, on the road to the Cango Caves, and is tucked away in the Swartberg Mountains.
The purpose of holding the event is to offer fellow motorcyclists a weekend of enjoyment without the noise, doughnuts and exhibitionist behaviour experienced at other Rallies. The Springbok has become known as the family rally and we have every intention of maintaining that tradition.
"Buff" type behaviour is unacceptable. If you cannot enjoy yourself without "Buff Stuff" we suggest that you do not enter for this Event. We intend enforcing strict control and, if necessary, will not hesitate to evict anyone who misbehaves.
To those who "played ball" at past events, a very big "Thank you".
If you have friends who may be interested in attending the Rally, please feel welcome to contact us at the telephone numbers listed above with their details.
FREE 10, 15 or 20-YEAR METAL BADGES
As a token of our appreciation for the support we have received, entrants celebrating their 10th,15 th or 20th “Springbok” this year will be entitled to a FREE Commemorative Metal Badge. Most important - to claim this offer you are required to mark your Entry Form accordingly. This must reach us before the 31st August 2008.
Failure to do so will result in the loss of this free offer.
