Ride4difference 2008

 

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.

12/05/2008 16/05/2008 Newcastle Drag Strip /Racing Circuit 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.
