Presidents Report – June 2014
Well, this year’s AGM is over and there has been a changing of the guard for the National Committee. There were some hard luck stories, like Kermit and Lucky breaking down on the way and there were lots of stories and facebook posts telling of what a great time they were having and while most of the attendees are home now there are some like Shamrock who are still tripping around on their way home. For all the members still on the road to wherever they’re going we hope they continue to have a good time and stay safe until we see them again. Don’t forget the all S.E.Q branches combined “Cartwheel” poker run is on this month on the 21st – 22nd and a top weekender has been planned so put it on your calendar to not forget. The Valley Rally planning is going strong thanks to Averil’s dedication to the task and it is getting close to the time when you’ll be called on to help out on the day so our guests are ensured of having a great time, so have a think about how you’d like to help and talk to Averil about what jobs are still available. Ps. Bloody Blues L Disgracefully yours, Terry Sheppard (Dartss #53697)

FOR YOUR INFORMATION—AUSTRALIAN MOTORCYCLE RIDERS RIGHTS
Finally a state government (Queensland) is asking motorcyclist for input regarding laws that affect them.
Please type (or copy & paste) the link below to complete the survey.
N.S.W. will see lane filtering legalised on the 1st July, 2014, and the VACC in calling on the Victorian state government to follow suit.
Hopefully Queensland will also follow suit as well.
Being able to buy and wear imported helmets that have the DOT & Snell (USA), ECE (Europe), and SG & JIS (Japan) ratings is also being looked at.
There is no notice advising when the survey will finish, so best to get the survey completed ASAP.
Australian motorcycle riders rights No doubt in an effort to get riders on-side, the Queensland Government are seriously considering legalising filtering, allowing riders to buy international helmets and stretch a leg while riding!
Please make sure you have your say and answer this quick survey.
It is important you all fill it in to get some much needed changes to rules impacting on motorcyclists. https://www.getinvolved.qld.gov.au/gi/consultation/2067/survey/1958/view.html

S i l k y O a k T e a G a r d e ns Protagonists:
Diesel & Robyn, Judge & Jury, Bret & Dorrie June & Pete, Ike & Kat, Gary, Hacker, Lucky, Nuts
10 Bikes 1Trike
Ride Leader to Pomona: The Judge
From Pomona to Kia Ora: Diesel
We all met at BP North Morayfield. Having a chat with Redcliffe, who were leaving on their ride @ 8.30 am.
The Judge gave the ride briefing and we headed off, spot on 9am, north on the Bruce Highway turning down Steve Erwin way turning left at the traffic light and around and into Beerwah then following Old Landsborough Rd to Landsborough onto Tunnel Ridge Rd for some nice corners onto Eudlo turning right into Ilkley Rd through to Forest Glen then north up the Bruce Highway and at this point in time I put the bike in cruise control never touch the throttle till we were climbing the hill towards the turn off to Cooroy. I was about third rider back from the ride leader and decided that I would leave the ride and go through Cooroy and across Forest Drive, I turned of and happen to look behind me and to my surprise the rest of the riders were behind me, continued onto Pomona where we caught up with the Judge and Gary and we stopped for a break.
We were on our bikes and on the road 11.15 as was discussed I was the ride leader from Pomona to the Silky Oak Tea Gardens. We headed out to Kin Kin were we turned left past the Kin Kin Hotel, traveling for some
time then turning right into Neusvale Rd, for the first K it is dirt but not real bad, following that till the end turning left onto Pomona Kin Kin Rd, some wonderful sweeping corners on this stretch of road, then turning right into Gympie Tin Can Bay Rd, stopping at the Matilda Garage for some to fuel up then on to the Silky Oak. We were made very welcome once again and food was great and some pleasant entertainment, after some discussion we decided that we would call it a day as we all wanted to return different ways, myself and Robyn came home the way we went and The Judge, Jury and Gary going to Kin Kin through another road, Ike & Kate, June & Pete electing to head back down the Bruce. Bret and Dorrie heading out through Kenilworth Robyn and myself had a good ride home. Hacker rode with Nuts and Lucky, got as far as the BP Forest Glen where the bike stopped and refused to go any further and was put on the back of an R A C Q truck for the rest of the journey. Needless to say Hacker is not a happy camper, all in all a great ride great company great food what more could one ask for.

2014 UlyssesClub Inc. AGM at Alice Springs
Not having a Bike anymore wasn’t going to stop us from a ending the 2014 AGM at Alice Springs so we booked a flight on the Red Kangaroo and flew in. We also had not been to this area of Australia before. Next morning early we caught a coach for a 3 day tour of Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon. The weather was overcast all day but that didn’t stop us from taking in the beauty of the area. First stop was at a Camel Farm where Groper had a ride on a Camel (now he can take that off his bucket list). Then further down the road the coach stopped to take photos of Mt. Conner in the distance, Mt. Conner from the road is some mes mistaken for Uluru un l one gets closer to it. While we were stopped there with Mt. Conner on the le there was a sandhill on the right which a er climbing it (Not very big) over the other side was a huge Salt Lake.While there, Groper had his usual sigh ngs of small lizards and plant life, but during this his glasses which were supposed to be tucked securely in his shirt pocket slipped out into the sand unbeknown to him. A er the coach was back on the road again he no ced ‘No Glasses.’ (On the return trip the next day we stopped there but Groper couldn’t find his glasses) Anyway back to the trip, a er lunch at the Ayres Rock Resort we travelled to Kata Tjuta walked into Walpa Gorge. That a ernoon we went to see the sunset over Uluru while enjoying Champagne & nibbles, but with the low cloud it was looking in doubt. 2 minutes before the sun
set there was a break in the clouds and the Rock turned a Bright (and I mean Bright) Orange. From a blue purple green colour to bright Orange. Amazing. Made the trip worthwhile. Next morning we were up early to see the sun rise over the Rock but again cloud, the sun finally came out but nothing spectacular. From there we drove around Uluru and walked into the beau ful Mu julu Waterhole & viewed Aboriginal rock pain ngs. A er lunch we headed for Kings Canyon and stayed overnight. Next morning rising early again, we had the choice of walking the Rim or the walk into the canyon floor. A er seeing the stairs to climb up onto the rim we decided to explore the canyon floor. Later that day we drove back to Alice Springs. Monday morning Groper & I hired a car for the week and finally got to the AGM where we had booked a tent in Tent City. Each day we found something different to do, like driving to more gorges on either side of the Alice or visi ng a rac ons in Alice. Certainly plenty do and visit at the 2014 AGM. The usual Shower problems happened again and Groper decided to let Headquarters know ‘Mens & ladies showers side by side in one block, the ladies were hot but as usual the men’s cold.’ In doing this the lady asked him if he could put his compliant in wri ng? He reply was, ‘If I hadn’t lost my glasses I would’. Conversa on con nued as to the how & whys then the lady said we have some Glasses handed into lost property and sure enough the very first pair she handed Groper was his. Back out there a Ulyssian must have
picked up his Glasses out of the sand and decided to hand them into the Lost property at the AGM. When you think of it, it was a one in a million chance of them returning to Groper. He’s grateful (& me also) The Ulyssian didn’t leave his name so Groper couldn’t thank him/her. The traders this year were down, Harley Davidson being the only motorcycle company (and for the first me) a ending the event to give rides to interested members. Disappoin ng but I guess expected considering the distance involved to get there & the cost. There were 2600 registered members at this AGM and on the Saturday Parade probably around 2000 bikes were there. I stood on the side line and tried coun ng but gave up. We joined in at the end of the parade and followed the bikes up through the streets and Todd Mall onto the Conven on Centre. I think most of Alice Springs were there waving the bikes on. It was great to see. Later in the a ernoon the Annual General Mee ng was held. The AGM is usually a ended by what Natcom call ‘the faithful 500’ the most prior to this was 803 in Mt Gambier in 2001. This year 706 members a ended. I was not surprised with the problems within the club earlier this year, members were genuine in wan ng change. And change they did, we now have a female President (the first for the club) Helena Gri on
11
(Adelaide Branch) was overwhelming voted in with over 500 votes. Jenny Woods (Canberra Branch) is s ll the Vice President. With John Evans standing down at the last minute that introduced Noel Wiltshire (Bendigo Branch) new to the commi ee as Secretary. Mike Abberfield (Newcastle Branch) held onto Treasurer with Ian Hobson standing down from Commi ee which le only 2 commi ee members so names were called from the floor and a vote taken for the third commi ee posi on 6 names
were in the ballot 2 came from Queensland but Paul Baulch from Victoria won to posi on to be beside Henry Rokx (Yarra Ranges Branch) & Rob White (Fraser Coast Branch). An interes ng me ahead for Helena &
commi ee this year. We congratulate all. A er a busy week we le Alice Springs on Monday a ernoon and arrived home late that night. Tired but glad to have been there. From my count we had 16 Glasshouse members a end this year.
Bring on Wodonga AGM. Which reminds me the Wodonga Branch are le ng all who intend going next year and want to book outside accommoda on to book NOW as there is a Big Annual Horse Race on the same week. Also The AGM has received the backing of only the Wodonga Council, the Albury Council pulled out so it is called the ‘WODONGA AGM’ Dates are March 23rd to 29th 2015

Alice Springs AGM helps towards sponsoring a horse for the Alice Springs Disable Riding School.
The Alice Springs AGM Committee took on sponsoring a horse for the Alice Springs Riding School for the Disabled.
The horse is named ‘Ulysses’ is an 8yr old Quarter horse Bay Gelding 14.1hh with a heart of gold. Ulysses is well handled, very quiet, calm and very trainable for any rider.
The Central Desert Branch also is assisting in the welfare of Ulysses.
A very commendable effort for the local Branch

Elite Special Event Tours
Sturgis 2013 By: Bear (Glenn McKay) # 15309
Continued from May
Aug 10 Free day and Black Hills Harley
This day there were no set tours we were left to ourselves to have a look around.
I met up with Rollie, we had decided to head out to Black Hills Harley as a few of our group had already been, and told us it wasn’t to be missed.
Back out onto the interstate towards Sturgis only to turn off about 6 miles down the road to Black Hills Harley-Davidson. This place had well and truly been set up for the influx of bikers. Everything was geared up for motorcycles entering and parking, they had ushers in the carpark to help keep some order allowing more and more bikes in. There seemed to be as many bikes in the carpark here as there were back in the main street of Sturgis.
Black Hills Harley had gone all out and set up with all their wares plus there were as many aftermarket stalls here as there were at Sturgis. Bit easier to get around here and if you needed to talk to a rep about what was best for your bike and how to fit it this was the spot. There were a number of specials happening, just for this show and fitting as well. Made me wish I had my bike with me, probably best though as I would have been like a kid in a candy store. I did manage to grab a few small items as I was very limited with luggage space. We spent most the morning here wandering around the displays to see what the latest trends were that were happening in the states, the trend of massive front wheels finding their way onto the custom bikes these days they take almost all of the travel in the front end. We also came across a massive pickup truck parked up around the back, I don’t think it would have much trouble getting around in the snow, “the toys they have in the US”.
From Black Hills Harley we headed back to Rapid City to check out some of the local businesses. We were told there was a Outdoors & Camping store not far from our motel so we decided to check it out. Talk about sporting goods they catered for everything in this place, all the clothing you would need, cooking, sleeping, fishing gear archery and guns the place was massive.
From here we went up to Walmart, it is true you can buy anything you want here, we grabbed a few items we had been running short of along the way. We made our way back to the motel to get ready for the ride out of Rapid City and leaving Sturgis on our way back out towards Salt Lake City following the outlaw cowboy trail.
Distance travelled approx 20 miles
Aug 11 Rapid City to Buffalo A few fuzzy heads this morning as we all lined up to get ready to make tracks again on our outlaw trail ride.
13
We left Rapid City taking the Interstate 90 out past Sturgis continuing on the interstate through the town of Sundance until we came up to US14 at Exit 185. This was all highway running fairly uneventful although we were overtaken by a number of motorcycles heading home after the rally.
We turned off at Exit 185 linking up with US14 until we came up to WY24 where we turned right on our way to Devils Tower (Close Encounters of a Third Kind movie). The road to Devils Tower was again a nice gentle winding road leading through some lush countryside. As we were getting closer the Devils Tower began to appear on the horizon it looked like something from
a movie quite different to the surrounding countryside. We finally came up to the kiosk and viewing area and from looking at the Tower it did seem to be out of place as instead of being a hill or mountain relating to the surrounds it seemed to me to look like some artists clay moulding just plonked in the middle of nowhere.
We went into the kiosk had a bit of a look around, felt like meat pie weather for me although there was no chance of grabbing one here. Had a look in the fridge for a drink and you wouldn’t believe it there they were big as life “Bundaberg Ginger Beer” from Australia, well just had to have one didn’t I. Made myself a promise, as soon as I got back home I’d go down to the local pie shop and grab myself a pie n peas.
We headed off back along the route we came in on up to US14 then turned right to head towards Moorcroft for our fuel stop. Just across the road from our Gas Station there was a police car parked up on the foot path in full view from the main drag. I guess they parked it up there as a deterrent for speeding through their little town, good idea. While we were at the Gas Station a couple of Harleys rounded the corner and went on by. A couple of our group said they had met this couple at Sturgis, turns out they were Kiwi’s and they had shipped their own
bikes over to tour around the States. Good on them.
Back on the road again, back on the Interstate 90 heading west to Gillette and continuing on until we came up to Buffalo, our stop for the night.
Buffalo was another town rich in the outlaw history with tales about the gangs in the area that would come in from their hide out at Hole in the Wall into Buffalo to conduct their business and to let their hair down. Some include the infamous Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid. There are
still bullet holes in the walls from some of the shootouts. Well worth a look.
Distance travelled approx 240 miles. TO BE CONTINUED
