Newsletter: May 2006

Dear Reader,

I am enclosing our latest training schedule and new article regarding rollovers. This year's Rhino Stampede took place on 6th May, 2006, and was well supported by the Kampala community. It was a wet day which made parts of the event a little more difficult than last year. However, most of the competitors enjoyed the extra challenge; especially on the skills trial where no team finished with the same amount of water as when they started!!

We had a new main sponsor for the event this year; City Tyres enabled the overheads to be completely covered, so every shilling raised went to the Sanctuary. They also were very generous with the prizes and I know that all involved would like to give them a large vote of thanks.

We received attractive prizes from some of the major outlets and restaurants in Kampala. Many thanks to you all. One of them was a large soap stone rhino from Banana Boat which is going to be used as the overall trophy for the event every year. So, well done to the Classic Safari team for taking it this year.

Vehicle Rollovers Revisited
Vehicle Rollovers Revisited
A recent event has prompted me to revisit this subject. Fortunately, all involved were not seriously hurt but so easily could have been. Therefore, I believe it is important to address why this type of accident occurs frequently and to seemingly "experienced" national drivers, the "old Africa hands" and newcomers alike?
Motorcycle Training Update
Motorcycle Training Update
We have revised our motorcycle training to compensate for the varying standards of rider. The one day course is now designed for riders that are proficient and want to increase their proficiency to a standard where they are confident with differing off road riding situations.
A three day course is designed for riders that have some proficiency but are not that confident in riding in difficult situations be it urban or rural. Included in this course are modules on pre riding inspections, defensive riding and hazard awareness and vulnerability.
