President's Report

First of all I would like to wish you all a Happy and Healthy New Year.

This year started sadly, with the passing of our Member and good friend Aub. I am sure he will be missed by all of us.

Our Christmas Break-Up was very much enjoyed by everyone.  We had a lot of feedback from the members. It was really a good Christmas atmosphere, with the Christmas decorations, good music and most of all good company.

Our first weekend away for this year (Australia Day weekend) was absolutely fantastic.  This was the first time we went to Tallangatta, but I am sure, not the last time. We were very well looked after at the hotel and the country side was absolutely breathtaking.

We even had the weather on our side. Hot, but not too hot for riding. The good thing was, there was a nice swimming pool, so we could cool  off a bit. We even played a ball game in the pool and I am happy to say: “MY TEAM WON” even though the others thought they won.

On Australia Day we all sang Advance Australia Fair. I didn’t know we had so many good singers in our branch.

Personally, I think this was the best weekend away. And 4 days was defiantly not too long. 

We made up a new Ride Guide Line. Whenever we stop for morning tea or our lunch break: “FUEL BEFORE FOOD”

Chris Dyball and Alan Hipworth deserve a big thank you for a well organized trip.

The weekends away are always good, and we have a few weekends lined up already for this year. You don’t know what you miss if you stay    at home. Just check the ride calendar. 

Monday the first of February is our first Social night at Tanti Hotel. I hope to see a lot of our members there. This will also be your last chance to put in your nominations for the next Committee. All positions are open. Please get involved to keep our Branch running.

Stay up right.
