MOTORCYCLE REPORT

If you examine closely your chronometer you will be able to ascertain that the days ARE becoming longer… Is spring on the way??

Past Events.

12th July – Motorcycle Noggin. A very successful event, about 32 members and partners enjoyed a set menu dinner at the Richmond Working Men’s Club. For quite a few of us this was the first visit to this facility, completely rebuilt after the earthquakes. Very nice surroundings!!!

13th July – Old Codger’s Run. Cancelled, but this event to be revived in August.

22nd July – Fish and Chip Run. Cancelled in favour of the Mid-Winter Run 29-30th July.

29th -30th July – Mid Winter Run to Geraldine. Reported on next month.

Future Events.

9th August – Motorcycle Noggin. The promised motorcycle collection is the Mike Pero museum at #1 Hawthorndon Road, Avonhead, Chch. There is an entry charge; $15. Been there before, well worth the effort to go. Meet there from 7.30pm onwards. The museum is not normally open Monday – Thursday and never at night, so as they are opening especially for us please support this and help make it a success.

10th August – Old Codger’s Run. Just to ease our way back into OCR’s might do the run to Cust that we tried some time ago but the weather beat us… Route 72 Café Bar and Emporium at Cust. Meet there 10.30 am; tell BS stories then your choice for a lunch venue etc.

26th August – Round the Bays Run. This will also double as the Fish and Chip Run for the month. Unfortunately that is about it for the moment. The closing date for these notes for The Hub was Monday 24 July, quite early, so there hasn’t been much time to work out new events into the future.

There will be a meeting of the motorcycle committee on Thursday 3rd August so I will send out by email an updated report of events coming up.

Cheers, CML
