    don't ask for details though. cuz there are none.

    i can tell you this though. facebook has the ride scheduled for saturday at 10 a.m. but no address.

    BON has the ride scheduled for sunday with an address but no time.

    no ride details. no fee details. NOTHING. and there's only ONE email contact for this ride on both sights. actually 3 sights but one is basically a duplicate of the other as far as information goes.

    Good cause though.
    When I was much younger I offered a free rape defence
    prevention class at the Kenpo school I owned.

    I've never understood why so few girls trained in the
    Martial Arts, even though they out number men in being
    the victums of abuse.

    Something close to 50-65% of women suffer some form
    of violents or sexual abuse in their life time.

    I wish we had more members in AZ as it would be great to
    organize a benefit run for just such a cause.

    this would be a nice ride if it had coordinated, DETAILED information. i have a time from one sight. an address from another sight. but i don't know what day it's on. or where it's going. or how much it costs.

    this isn't the first ride this year that had very little to go on. and what little there was was also mixed detail. the same thing happened to the ride for child abuse also.

    I think the Ride is a joke....a juvenile joke, but um yeah, probably a joke.

    why post something, when there is no information on it.

    Just wasting my time and others to read it.

    October is domestic abuse awareness month, so this is a coordinated ride during the correct month, maybe he was looking for more info if anyone had it, or this could just be that they want you to go out at 10 am and just ride

    Thanks for posting

    Yea if there was something like this going on in my area, I'd be all over it.

    Actually, I know a whole group of guys who'd be all over it.

    somebody has to start the ride somehow somewhere.

    we have lots of yearly rides. and they all got started by someone at some time.

    last week there was a ride for breast cancer. 6th annual ride.

    last month there was a ride for child abuse. don't know how long that one has been around.

    harley davidson has a ride for MS. it goes across state lines for some gambling and a concert and other events. i think this year was the 59th ride.

    most of the rides are usually a $20 contribution to the cause.
    the MS ride by harley is quite a big ride. and was pretty pricey this year. the band was an old has been. you all remember them. RATT.

    Is it a ride for, or a ride against domestic violence?

    I am the grammar Nazi.....
