The Little River T.T.reunion on 22nd June promises to be a fantastic event. It is getting plenty of good promotion within the motorcycling fraternity including our club. We have been allocated an area to display 20 bikes [or more] so make sure you have yours polished and ready to go. This will be a golden opportunity to promote our club to all and sundry. Don't miss out, either come on the club ride or go directly to the venue. See last month's Sprocket for a full report on the history of the event.

The club has arranged some excellent guest speakers for the coming meetings up to July. If you feel you have a suitable speaker give one of the committee a ring and we will slot them into our calendar. See the guest speaker details in this issue.

I spoke with Polly Smith the other day and she expressed her gratitude to the members for their good wishes and the club's commemorative plaque to John Stock and she hopes to be back involved with the club very soon. Her son is taking over one of John's bikes while another one is to be exhibited at the Maffra Shed Museum. Our best wishes to Polly.

I have contacted the club's Public Liability insurers regarding two most queried issues that have arisen lately. Firstly; if non-classic club persons participate in a classic club event they are not covered by our policy and would be on their own should they be involved in a mishap. Secondly; if the club intends to run a special event or extra event to our normal registered calendar we are obliged to notify our insurers to access the risk factor and any possible additional conditions and or premium costs.

I will be in Queensland for the May and June meetings and David Langridge will be Chairperson for general and committee meetings. The Haigslea motor cycle museum is between Ipswich and Toowoomba and from all reports is up there with the best It was closed on my last visit, but this time I will get some photos for Sprocket.

Classics need TLC, but they also need exercise.
