Directors Report Didn’t February go past fast? In fact so fast that we changed the date on the newsletter to March, so now we’re always going to be a month ahead. It was suggested as a bit of a joke to the committee, that we change the date on the newsletter. Now that we have a ride calendar well in advance, it makes sense to be doing the newsletter the month before it’s due so everyone can plan which events they want to go on. The ride calendar is not set in concrete, so if you’d like to do a ride, please contact me, a member of the committee, or the Activities Officer. The rides listed to date, were planned at a ride calendar meeting prior to the last newsletter. We had 14 people putting in their ideas of where they would like to go. We actually came up with rides right through to November and these will appear on a rolling calendar in the newsletter. As one month of rides finishes, the next will be listed. Please come up with your own ride ideas, it would be great to have the choice of two or three rides to go on per month. Anyone wishing to go on the Byron run and stay overnight will need to book ASAP as the caravan park is now nearly full booked. Contact Deb or myself for more information. For those of you who couldn’t make it to the 20 th Anniversary ride, games and dinner - we started off with a ride down to the Ma Ma Creek shop for smoko with around 25 bikes and one trike, then headed back up via Flagstone Creek to Upper Flagstone Creek Rd and on to Ray’s house. Several other bikes joined us for some games and a sausage sizzle for lunch. Thank’s to Boyd for the loan of the two sun shades, as it was really hot at Ray’s. The games went on for what seemed a very quick three hours. It was really good to see so many people giving it a go and being so competitive (in a very friendly way). Thank you very much to Ray who set up the lanes and then did lunch. Dinner was set for 7.00 with drinks from 6.30 which was when The Chronicle showed up for photos . Colin & his staff produced a fantastic dinner (no one could have left hungry) We had around 50 people at the dinner, some of whom were original members, which was great to see and it was very interesting to talk to them. During dinner we made presentations to the winners of the games. (Deb made trophies for all the events including finding plastic cabbages’ for the cabbage racing trophies - thank you I know how long it took). We also presented Boyd with a plaque for having been our dealer principal for twenty years and then Boyd presented the Hog club with the same plaque (both come from <strong>HOG</strong> Aust.). During dinner we were entertained by singer “Lynda” with a good mix of songs. By the end of the night, she had no more business cards to give out. It was a great night and a special thank you to Deb, Dianne and John Hubbard for all their help with setting up the hall. Continue other page
