Hi Members.

We were finally able to have our AGM and filled all the committee positions and have

since had general meetings but the last was small in numbers so, I am reminding you that

the meetings are now back on, the same as usual the 3rd Thursday of the month at the

Sawtell RSL 7pm start. We could not conduct many of our monthly meetings in 2020

because of Covid-19, but it seems be back in full swing again. If you have any ideas, issues,

or questions that you are unsure of regarding the club and events, table them at the

meeting, that is why we have them. Firsthand information is best, that way it won’t get

twisted somewhere down the line. So, get to a meeting and have your say.

We have the All Fired up Expo on Jan 2nd and 3rd. Bikes can be accepted at the

showgrounds on Friday 1st after 1pm and before 9am on the Saturday.

Our Annual Restore and Ride Rally is on. Valla may not be the choice of venue, that is

something that still needs to be decided as well as the Rally Committee.

Rob Popplewell is our Rally Conveyer and will be needing a handful of people to make it a

success. So, come along to the monthly meeting and put your hand up for a position.

At the end of our last meeting Shane Barns our new president handed in his resignation.

Rob Popplewell will be standing in on the job so we will now be looking for a Vice-

President.

Oh, and you probably already know but this will be my last Magazine. So, we will also be

needing a Magazine Editor and the Ride Co-Ordinator for the monthly ride calendar. If

anyone feels they are up for either of these positions, once again come along to the

meeting and put your hand up.

Over and out.

Bonnie.
