WALWA RIDE AUGUST 17TH & 18TH 2013

Good  ol'  Walwa in August might have been a bit chilly and overcast but no rain on the way there or on the way home made it a very enjoyable run. This trip was just a tad different with the main group of 6 riders leaving Mooroopna at 10am and Boots and I riding up later, we would have gone all together except for my work interfering so Boots stayed back to wait for me. Walwa is a great ride no matter which way you go so every one enjoyed the run--- like always and no doubt we will do it again.

BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR MAD MOB

 With a gracious offer from Gundy and Denise to have this years birthday party at their place it was decided , with heartfelt thanks, to accept  the offer. Saturday the 6th was the chosen night and it turned out to be a very good event. The venue is a credit to Gundy and Denise as it has everything that a man or woman could desire. From fire pots outside to an open fire on a hearth inside and long tables and chairs with plenty of seating under the covered area to cozy lounge chairs around the open fire. A very large screen TV with the footy on and  ample stereo pumping good music.  Also  a fully operational kitchen and  spit roast and of course the wood top bar with the complementary bottle of Chivas Regal for guests to sample. Gundy and Denise, on behalf of everyone who attended I thank you very much for your hospitality. Also a big thank you to Grover and Bonni ( the new girl in his life) for your hard work  for and on the night. Also  thank you to all who brought along deserts, salads, casseroles, nibblies,  etc and  to those who attended the night.. Tom Groves was popular with the girls after winning the chocolate hamper. The  bottle of Jim Beam was won by Finny for tossing his gold coin closest to the bottle and  the rest of the night was just good fun. It was with pleasure that I got to announce that Brett and Tim were both nominated for membership and also that on this night we get to welcome a new member to the club in Tony " Boots" Gardner. Welcome Brother.  Here we are entering our 5th year and although we have grown slowly to 9 members and 2 noms the bonds are strong and the Mad Mob will only get stronger with time. Thank you for your continued support. Bird
