Team we are holding a Branch ride this coming Sunday, just a short ride to Boonah for coffees, just to get back into things. Sunday after will be a longer run hopefully with the BBQ Trailer. It will be nice to get out again.
We are leaving Yamanto at 9am, hope to see you there.

I have been sent some info on the National Rally in WA 2021, it's on a USB drive so not easy to distribute it but if you are interested you are more than welcome to borrow the drive and see for yourselves all the events planned for that week, just let me know. I will try and get some items put onto the Branch website and Facebook.
Cheers
Chopper
Stay Healthy

Dear Lockyer Branch members,
A short 9 days ago I advised that Kevin 'Hutchy" Hutchison was admitted to the PA. Well, I've been advised by his wife Sandra that he "passed away early on Sunday morning and he is at Peace in the Lord's beautiful kingdom". RIP Hutchy and may you get to ride as you so desperately wished to do.

Hi Everyone,
Can I please ask if you can advise your members that the Redlands Branch Xmas In July 2020 held at Tenterfield event has been cancelled.
We are unable to contact those who have been before as they come from far & wide. We do know that some from last year said they would be coming this year.
So if you can assist by letting your membership know the following, we should hit all those members who have already booked their accomodation for this year.
Many thanks
Roxy
Pres - Red...

Hey Guys, as yet there is no decision about our AGM in April, the committee are meeting on Monday to decide whether we proceed with the AGM or not, obviously our concerns are with the health of our members.
The ANZAC Day event has been cancelled already but other rides are still undecided.
I will keep you informed of the committee decision and if you have any concerns please call me.

A huge congratulations to Spook for being acknowledged by the National Committee as a worthy recipricant of Telemuchus Medal number 116.
Spook has been a great ambassador for the Ipswich Branch since our inception 6 years ago and I thank our branch committee for putting forward the nomination for him.
The Telemachus Medal is awarded by the National Committee for services to a branch and is a very prestigeous award.

Hi all, most of you who were on the coffee ride today would know that our fearless leader has broken his left ankle quite serverely, and is preasently in the Ipswich hospital, all I can say is that I'm glad I don't play the game, it seems very dangerous, I'll stick to bike riding.

Howdy all and hope you had a great Xmas and didn't eat too much (like we did)!
I'm going to ride to Boonah on 31 Jan for a coffee, either alone or with you!
Leaving Redbank Town Square at 9.00am and meeting near the F45 gym in the corner of the carpark. Not to be confused with Redbank Plaza by the way.
A real short ride straight to Boonah for coffee (maybe for breakfast). If anyone wants to ride longer than that then feel free to take the lead after the Boonah stop.
