NSW Get Together. May 23rd 1999.

This is set for Sunday 23rd May at Old Sydney Town near Gosford.
Should be a good day and it is hoped all Newcastl and Sydney area members will try to get there to eyeball each other so we all know who we are.

Victorian Get Together. April 17-18th 1999.

Victorian members are organizing to meet somewhere during the weekend at Phillip Island.
Any other area members attending the WSC should also try to get along to the meeting point.
Please contact Barry Johnson for details of meeting place.
Apparently this did not get off the organisational ground but a number of members made themselves known to Ian Drysdale at his display stand.

Chat Meeting. January 17th 1998.

We are holding a meeting using IRC Chat. All members have been sent details of times and channel to be used as well as info on getting chat facilities.
In Newcastle NSW Aus we will be holding a Physical meeting/party for all the Non Net members to participate as well.
The current agenda for discussion has been distributed to members. If you have any suggestions or questions please Email.

Proposal to run Dirt/Sand Drags/Hillclimb event. Winter 1998 or 1999.

This is a proposal from members in the Newcastle Aus area.
A number have and are building bikes specially for this type of competition (although it's not particularly serious).
Some suggestions are:-

• It could be a means to raise funds for other activities.
  

• Not to allow Chook Chasers (Trail Bikes) as they just dominate it and are no fun to watch.
  
• Hold it in conjunction with some other large event to which people already come.
  
• Although Hillclimb (Widowmaker style) and Sand Drags are rather specialised, also running a plain Hardis Dirt drag would allow Everyone and His Dog to Have a Go on their street bike which would be a great attraction.

This proposal is to be discussed at the Chat Meeting on the 17 Jan 98.
If you have any suggestions or questions please Email or better still join in the Chat discussion.

Proposal Sponsor a Trophy for Best Modified at Large Bike Show.

This is a proposal from members in the Newcastle Aus area. (Again)
So far two large events in this area have been proposed :

• Gladiators Maitland Bike and Car Show. 21st March 98. Trophies are pre made and cost $100 to $150 to sponsor but organisers can probably be convinced to create a new category for Best Modified.
  

• Manilla Rally near Tamworth. 18th April 98. Here it seems we could make the trophy and just donate it and also designate the category.

It would be good to hear from other members in other areas as this is a great way to get known and at the same time generate interest in modified bikes. If you have any suggestions or questions please Email or better still join in the Chat discussion.

Please, if anyone would like to propose an event or activity then Mail it in.
