Members may recall that Phil Lunn attended the AWMEC Club Meeting of 26 November 2024? He provided details of the Albury Wodonga Twin City’s Shannon’s National Show N Shine and Convoy 4 Kids event , to be held on 19 January 2025.
Our Club took part in the event, riding in the Convoy 4 KIDs. It was a worthwhile occasion. Funds were raised for Country Hope , which supports families who have children diagnosed with cancer, or other life-threatening illnesses.

Our club was represented by eight bikes, four of which were club-plated:
-
Doug Flack – Honda K750
-
Wayne Eames – 1976 BMW /7
-
David Barson – Yamaha VX1100
-
Dick Bates – Suzuki

Michael Mellor rode his Honda CB1100F (it’s not entered on the Ride Attendance Sheet as “Club Plated”?).
It was a hot day, and our riders were feeling the heat in Young Street, Albury. The Convoy ground to a halt as the large number of trucks entered the Albury Showgrounds, for the Show ‘N’ Shine event. If we ride in this event again, we’ll try to negotiate a position up the front of the Convoy.

Thank you, David Barson, for being Tail-End Charlie, and carrying the First Aid Kit, and the Defibrillator.
Regards,
John Kontista
