NSW - MMAA Bike Dislay 26 April 2009
Greetings All,
Through the week I had the pleasure of attending a meeting to sponsor a new member into Woronora Lodge.
Whilst there, I mentioned the MMAA, (as I tend to do at every available opportunity), and the DGIW of District 28 was interested in what we are and what we do.
He has invited us, as a club and masons, to put on a motorcycle display at their annual picnic. It is not on until the 26th April 09, and I understand that it is a long time off, but I thought I might gain some expressions of interest from among us and give him the positive response that I am sure he is looking forward to.
I see this as an opportunity to both raise our profile and perhaps gain some new members into the MMAA. I would appreciate a response within the next week to provide them with an indication of our interest.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Roger (Lizard) Coates

Usual turn up is around 5000 bikes and the run is a full green light, police escorted run. All motorcyclists are welcome from Postie bikes and scooters to big road and touring bikes.
Past donations have been in excess of $36000 worth of cash and $30000 in toys last year- so it’s a really well supported run by the bike and business community. All proceeds are greatly appreciated. So come on down, and be a part of the 31st celebrations in Newcastle.....
It would be great to have a MMAA presence and for us to be able to start to publicise our involvement when we are involved in community work. This will add to our profile and assist in generating new memberships. Please try to make it and get all bike riding friends to join us as a group.
It is a Xmas run so dressing up bikes is also popular
