Holbrook Motor Cycle Sports Club

A note from The new HMCSC Club secretary - Jen Towell;

"Hi  All,

Greg and Raelene and kids  are moving to Western Australia in a couple of weeks , so instead of having our usual meeting at the pub we would like to have a get together and farewell for them at the Byer Motor Inn in Holbrook on Tuesday 10th May at 7.00pm. We will try to squeeze in the general meeting as well over dinner.

Hope to see everybody there. Jen"

We hope as many members as possible are able to get to the dinner to wish Greg & Raelene all the best with there move to the West.

Bill & Barb spent their Easter break on the road to Lake Eyre and back. A brilliant Road Bike Report and Gallery full of pictures are now available to be looked at.

Next round of the Leaping Log will be hosted by Holbrook at 'The Pines" on Sunday May 29th. The carpark and pit area will be changed this year, so keep an eye out for an updated map to the new entrance to the track.  The round will be scored traditionally (no transponders) and results will be available throughout the day, and online a couple of days after the round has finished.

The October long weekend ride looks and sounds like it was lots of fun. Now the weather is clearing and warming up, i'm sure a few more of the Holbrook road bikes will be out from under their covers, fuelling up and heading for the hills.

Big thanks to  the website members that have been uploading their own terrific photos, especially those from the Tumut round of the Leaping Log. Looks like a great day was had by all.

With the winter sporting season and the cold and wet weather, road bike rides have been few and far between for most of us. Luckily we have Bill and Barb Sullivan out and about on the BMW nearly every weekend, keeping us up to date with what's happening out on the blacktop.

Barb's sent in a terrific repot on their last ride out on Father's Day (Sept. 5, 2010) complete with heaps of photos showing the rapidly rising flood waters in the north east of Victoria.
