Sunday Rides
  • Chris Fitzhardinge for his ongoing commitment to lead groups from Catalanos on Sunday's, exploring the Scarp, South West, Murray and Wheatbelt, and his descriptive delivery as he guides the group along the way.
  • Image (L-R): President; Boz.

Inspiration
  • Steve Bly for his efforts to inspire fellow riders to get out more, despite the restrictions Steve has managed to ride further than most and provided great photos and videos along the way to record his activities – the view from his office (Sitting on his bike) is the envy of many.

Attitude and Effort
  • There has been several new members consistently venturing out for overnighter rides in 2020, one in particular stands out and is an inspiration, his enthusiasm is contagious and it has been a pleasure to have him in the group. He has accomplished many firsts – Dirt roads, Camping off the Bike and Camp Cooking to name a few and all from his 310GS – Joseph Nunis.

  • Clayton Cream – Clayton has clocked up some serious kilometers to join in with club activities and events and displayed a wide variety of well-presented bikes.
  • Ray Ponting – Ray and his Grandson Christian's efforts at Karalee Rocks, providing refreshments and food for the masses was impressive. Making it to the Christmas dinner with two (2) Jason's in tow.


Viral Video – BMW R18 – Aussie Interpretation
  • Robin Morritt for recording his test ride of the R18 in WA country side, Dirt roads, Wild flowers, Cockatoos, farms and fences, an absolute classic and bound to boost sales – Well done. Only in WA could you pull off such a feat.

Thanks Spacey for the photos and report on the awards. I think all members of the committee well and truely deserve a big thank you for all the work they do, which we as club members don’t see. I feel future award nights should clearly recognise and applaud their dedication.
