How about riding your bike,
trike, scooter or whatever, onto the main arena of the Sydney
showground? You can!
This year instead of the
car park area we have secured the Sydney showground main arena as
our muster point. This premier venue means much more media attention
for the ride so Come On!! Lets fill it with bikes of all types.
We will ride from here to
Harbord Diggers. If riders can register on the web this will help us
to better organise the day. There will be a major prize draw for
those who take the time to register. In past years I have asked for
a $25 donation
This year I am asking
riders to seek their own sponsorship from friends, workmates, etc.
this should help us to raise more much needed funds. If you don’t
want to seek sponsors then the $25 donation will be fine too.
AWA
has donated a 42” LCD TV that will be presented to the individual
that raises the most sponsorship amount. You have 2 months to raise
funds so lets make this our best year yet.
Details of
meeting points etc are on the website.
Web:
www.ride4difference.com.au
Open and
print flyers sponsorship forms etc.
Please pass this
email on to anyone you can.
Regards
Carl Glover Organiser.

Court Case Maitland
Courthouse thence Land & Environment Court. 225 Macquarie St Sydney

Hi all
Interesting letter attached.
Would be good if one or more of us
could go to the court proceeding if possible I'm going to do my best
to be there.
Is at East Maitland Courthouse on
this Monday 12th May at 2.30pm.
There is also a “site visit” at the proposed Motorplex at 10.00am on
Monday.
The court proceedings are scheduled to take all week, with a
judgment who knows when after that.
Fingers crossed!!!
Please pass this on to all those you may think are interested.
Cheers

Hi Pinky,
I thought I make take the
opportunity to tell you that the Motoring Clubs of Tamworth District
are combining to show their vehicles in the carpark of Bicentennial
Park, Kable Ave, Tamworth between 10am to noon to celebrate National
Motoring Heritage Day.
After this display the Clubs
will break off and take a scenic tour to reform at the Kootingal
Bowling Club where again the cars will be on display whilst members
will enjoy the facilities of the Club.
If this event could go in your
calendar I would be grateful.
