ORMTC President’s Report June 2016

Almost half way through the year again. What is it about the speed of time as you get older, everything moves quicker except your body! We were taken on another two fantastic rides in May. Nic and Nigel took us on a great country run through the mid-west and out to Cervantes for lunch by the sea and Mal treated us to the unofficial (at this stage) Beer Museum at Gidgegannup – this place will be well worth the visit once they open to the public. Our thanks to Janet and Steve for hosting us for morning tea. June sees a mini exodus of Club officials. Both EJ (Secretary) and I (President) are doing European rides with Adriatic Moto Tours. EJ is doing Romania Bulgaria Turkey on an organised group tour and I’m doing a private Southern France/Northern Spain tour with friends. Look out for our Facebook postings.

Ride safe

Editors Report

Hi all, This month there’s plenty of photos from the rides, which were promptly sent in following a late reminder. Thanks Fred, Nic and Peter for those. I wanted to go on the Social Ride but I went to this guy’s 40th until the wee hours the night before and on ride day I needed to clean up some storm damage from the day before. Finances Nothing special to report here apart from paying less than $500 by avoiding genuine Brother printer consumables ($88.85) as mentioned at last meeting.

Club balance: $3537.26. Ivan

O.R.M.T.C. RIOT ACT

This is to be read out at the start of each run

1. All riders are to be introduced to the Leader and Tail End

Charlie before the start of the run. 2. Do not overtake on the left – EVER!!

3. For rider safety a staggered formation is strongly

recommended.

4. Do not pass the leader unless they say it is okay.

5. When turning you MUST wait on the corner where you can be seen until the person behind catches up.

6. When you see someone on a corner you will become the

corner marker unless they wave you through.

7. Ride within your own personal limits and be mindful of the road rules.

8. The tail end Charlie will always be behind the last bike, no

matter what.

Please complete the sign in sheet with rider/pillion details including an emergency contact name and number.

This riot act must be read out before the start of each run. If you

are attending the run and the organisers fail to read it out, please remind them to do so.
