Captain's Report April 2015
Midweek PM Ride 11-3-2015
23 Riders 1 Passenger
Despite numerous groans because Donnybrook
was todays destination where people participat-
ing in the two day rally visited several times
over the course of the weekend, the group head-
ed off ably led by Neville G. on a Bernie in-
spired route, Ye Olde Capel/Tutunup Rd!, Bob
Brittain joined the ride today but had the misfor-
tune stop to his bike on Ludlow/Hithergreen Rd
and couldn't restart. Carty tried push start but
gave up as a bad joke and towed Bob and his
bike to start. Once started there was no stopping
consequently any afternoon tea for Bob.
After goodies in a couple of cafe`s and wishing
John & Tracy bon voyage for the caravan trek,
the group broke up and headed in a few different
directions home.
Busso Boys 18-3-2015 12 Riders
Weather not looking good however, 12 hardy
souls turned up. Decision was made to ride to
Capel bakery which made Darryl's eyes light up.
With Darryl the leader and Terry tail end charley
we headed along Layman Rd, detouring around
some road works to Tuart Dr. onto Ludlow Rd
Nth, Roberts Rd, Bussell Hwy Bentley Dr, Rail-
way Rd and the a meander round the back streets
of Capel to the bakery where we all enjoyed
some goodies. Our return journey was roughly
the same, calling into Peppermint Grove Beach
for a short stop.
Midweek AM 25-3-2015 21 Riders 1 Passen-
ger
Perfect day for a ride, Neville G. herded the
group meandering around Gelorup, West Dar-
danup, Boyanup, Crooked Brook, Ferguson,
Henty, Burekup, To Forrest Hwy and then onto
Eaton where Margaret G, Lyn, Fay and I had the
pies, sausage rolls ready and waiting as well as
other stuff. After almost eating everything the
group left about 1130.
ONCE AGAIN RIDERS DON’T WAIT AT
CORNERS FOR FOLLOWING BIKES. Please consider riders who are not as familiar
with the surrounding areas as you may be.
Busso Ride Report 1/4/2015
We had 21 bikes turn up for the ride on a mag-
nificent autumn day although a bit on the chilly
side at the start. We had 1 new visitor and 4 rid-
ers from Bunbury, there were 10 club eligible
bikes also President Bob was there to see us off.
(He couldn’t come with us as he had some busi-
ness to attend to in Busso)
We headed off down Chapman Hill Rd R into
Doyle Rd L at Queen Elizabeth and Payne Rd, L
into Jindong Treeton Rd, R at Rosa Brook Rd, L
into Rosa Glen Rd to the Berry Farm for Morn-
ing Coffee break
5
where we enjoyed delicious coffee, jam cream
and scones.
We then headed South, R into Davis Rd, and L at
Bussell Hwy stoping at Karridale for fuel and
waiting for a few riders that went via Warner
Glen Rd for a bit longer ride.
Heading South again to Augusta and the new
boat harbour, we all agreed that the new harbour
was a magnificent set up, well finished, a credit
to the builders.
We then headed back to Karridale for lunch,
heading home via Caves Rd, Cowaramup Rd,
Bussell Hwy, Treeton Rd, Jindong Treeton Rd,
Payne Rd and Queen Elizabeth Rd arriving at
Busselton about 3 PM, a very enjoyable day was
had by all.

Glen Britza Run 12-4-2015
This run had been postponed for a couple of
weeks, so it was disappointing to see the wet
weather settling in for a few days prior to the
event. However on the day there were just a few
showers about with lengthy fine spells. Obvious-
ly most members thought it looked pretty good
as we had 34 riders and 1 passenger arrive for
the start at the Entertainment Centre.
Glen Britza had prepared the route and was busy
handing out route sheets. The ride was broken
up into 2 legs with the first taking us to the Wel-
lington Dam for a 15 minutes break. We trav-
elled through the Ferguson Valley and Pile Road
and used the recently sealed Falcon Road to the
dam. After the break we travelled back across
the dam and Falcon Road but turned up Lennard
Drive to the top of the hill. We then made our
way down Henty Road to the SW Highway, then
across to Leschenault.
It's worth mentioning here that we went via Al-
ma Road which is a well-known dairy area -
which, combined with a bit of rain, equals brown
coloured motorcycles! Anyhow we made it to
Neville & Margaret Greens' place where they
had prepared morning tea / lunch with a great
variety of food and drinks. The weather here was
now sunny and very pleasant so most people
stayed a while enjoying the food and others
company. Many thanks to Glen, Neville and
Margaret and all the other volunteers that helped
make the day a good one.

Website Report April 2015
We have carried out an on line survey of partici-
pants in the recent Two Day Rally. We have had
72 responses from 143 requests sent out. This is
a response rate of 50% which is excellent. We
have gained lots of useful feedback and this in-
formation will be presented at the next commit-
tee meeting and will be used when planning fu-
ture events.
Richards' Run and Presentation Day will be held
on Sunday 24th May. As we have done previous-
ly this event will be held at the BMCC
clubrooms and will be a family day out. Regis-
trations are now open and
6
there is a cost of $15 per person, children under
14 years free. You can register online through
the club website and you can also book for visi-
tors or family members at the same time. Regis-
tration and payment is essential prior to the
event and registrations close on the 17th May to
enable planning for catering. You will not be
able to register after this date so if you're coming
now is the time to let us know.
We have posted photos from the Two Day Rally
on our Facebook page. These photos were kind-
ly provided by Jan McDermott and Jan & Rex
Baker.

inspected machines. There had been in excess of
400 machines 20 machines still remaining unli-
censed. There has been 20 letters sent to mem-
bers who had not had their machines inspected,
of those 15 members have responded to Jeff’s
letters.
There still remain 15 machines not as yet bought
to be inspected.
Jeff has put in a huge effort to encourage these
members who have not responded to his com-
munications and he now considers the Club
should have them struck off as Club members by
evoking the Constitution .The committee to dis-
cuss his request. His request was generally sup-
ported by the members present at the meeting.

Net income negative positive $1,196.24

President’s Report
Another year has already passed, and it is time
for the AGM.
This year has had its downs and ups, with the
first fatality occurring whilst conducting a club
run. This has put extra pressure on the committee
members as they try to ensure that it is not re-
peated.
The year has also seen the 40th running of the
Two Day Rally, which by all accounts was very
enjoyable and very successful.
The IHC, as a club is progressing along comfort-
ably with new member applications being pro-
cessed, it seems every month.
To comply with the 404 licensing requirements,
the committee is looking at ways to involve more
members within its activities, as it seems that
some members are only joining to take ad-
vantage of the licensing concession. I urge all
members to support the club activities as this is a
requirement of the 404 concession. We only see
1/3 of members throughout the year at activities.
To the new President, I wish whomever it is, the
support of the club, and say that I will be able to
help, if needed.To the rest of the elected commit-
tee you have my support.
Finally I must thank the ladies, who have sup-
ported the club at functions, with their catering.
Also to the committee members that have sup-
ported me during my time as President, and last-
ly all club members that have attended the activi-
ties during the year and generally supported the
club.
Captain’s Report
In what has been a very eventful year for the
club, there was an increase to approx. 60 rides
this year due to Pre-48, Busso Boys and Mandu-
rah Mob having designated runs. We also tried a
couple of new places to have midweek am rides
which worked out. With the weather being
8
generally kind on ride days there were not many
really damp days however, there were some pret-
ty hot rides.
The most spectacular ride I think was Roy's ride
where 49 bikes and 12 passengers descended on
Murray Coopers to view his collection of re-
stored petrol bowsers after which the group trav-
elled to Muriel Melvin's for lunch. In all there
were approx. 75 people who honoured Roy that
day which was greatly appreciated by the family.
The 40th Two Day Rally was huge success. I
think it will be hard to top this particular year’s
event.
As always no event would be possible without
the continued support of the hardworking volun-
teers, THANK YOU.
In conclusion I would like to thank everyone
who has participated in the club, also thanks to
people who have had input into ride ideas and
supported me throughout the year.
Librarian’s Report. Nil to repor t
Publicity Officer
Another successful Xmas Charity Ride was held
on 13th December 2013. A lovely summer’s day
with a turnout of 330 bikes starting at Capel
10.00 am.
Led by Santa in a sidecar the procession of bikes
left Capel and proceeded down Bussell Highway
turning off to collect more bikes at Dalyellup
Park then went down Ocean Drive and eventual-
ly gathering at the Foreshore Inlet opposite
B.R.E.C.
After much needed refreshments our newly ap-
pointed Bunbury City Mayor Mr Gary Brennan
greeted and thanked everyone for their support
of cash donations, food items and Xmas gifts.
The cash raised on the day came to $3,300 and
was presented to Salvation Army Officer Major
Trevor Wilson. The cash would be used to make
up food hampers and to buy Xmas gifts to go to
the less fortunate people of Bunbury and sur-
rounding areas.
I have enjoyed being Publicity Officer these past
2 years and have learnt a great deal.
I thank the Members of the Committee and Club
Members for their support, help and guidance.
Licensing Liaison Officer
Another eventful year come and gone – sadly
again as I pointed out last year a lack of mem-
bers willing to put their hand up to assist in the
running of the club. This makes it difficult for
the few hard working members to shoulder all
the workload of what is becoming a very busy
organisation.
We finished this year with 38 Machines on A
class, 336 on B class and 2 Specials. Ray Buck
and I have had busy year in processing 47 new
registrations through the Department of
Transport and a few bikes have left the club or
the member handed their plates in. These have
been replaced by the hard working, inspired and
dedicated restorers in our club which has main-
tained the number of bikes on our register. Many
of these restorations are pure “works of art” and
there never seems to be a shortage of raw materi-
als still out there waiting to be touched by their
“magic wands” - Well done to you all!
There are changes coming to the Licensing Cate-
gory Concession 404 which covers our bikes that
are 25 Years or older. These will be detailed in
full when the Department of Transport in con-
junction with the CMCC issues the updated in-
formation booklet. IHC Members will be kept
informed of the effects of these changes as soon
as the laws
9
are passed through parliament – until then, NO
CHANGES can be initiated and rumours that
other clubs have already changed are seen by the
D.O.T. as ”jumping the gun” . The IHC commit-
tee has worked through them in regard to the
Constitutional effects so we will be ready to act
as soon as we are given the green light.
2014 Examination Day in February this year
proved to be a bit slower than last year but as
usual was carried out with professional enthusi-
asm by our hard working team of Scrutineers and
was well supported by the ACTIVE members of
the club. However there was it was a significant
number of INACTIVE Members that required a
waste of valuable time and club resources chas-
ing up errant/ lost or missing members without
current Roadworthy Certificates.
In closing I would like to thank the President and
the Committee, a very special thankyou to Ray
Buck for all his hard work, encouragement and
enthusiasm for the job over many years. Last but
not least, all the Scrutineers for their support that
makes my job a pleasure.

Website Manager
During the last year we have added interactive
forms to our site that have allowed us to offer
online applications and payments for events like
the Two Day Rally and also membership pay-
ments. We have also started a Facebook page
that allows us to offer an alternative to using our
main website for displaying photos and posts.
Members who have a Facebook account can post
photos, videos and comments directly to the
page.
Unfortunately we have been informed by our
website service provider My Southwest of their
intention to close the service in September. Alt-
hough this is an unwelcome development, it does
present the club with the opportunity to look at
how our website, online and manual payments
and back office systems interact and to consider-
our future requirements. There may be a period
of disruption in our services whilst any upgrades
take place. Our Facebook page will continue as
normal.
