BONALBO TRAIL RIDE

  

POSTPONED

  

  

An Unresolved Issue with the local Council has caused the Bonalbo Trail Ride to be postponed to a date yet to be confirmed. ADBA received a phone call from Council Monday afternoon saying that concerns about noise and dust from the trail ride had been raised by local people in Bonalbo and the council wanted to discontinue the event on environmental grounds. An Email was received by ADBA late on the same afternoon threatening a Hugh fine if the event proceeded. A trip for an unscheduled meeting with the Mayor and Town Planner on Tuesday afternoon failed to resolve the issue on the spot; however assurances were given that I would be contacted sometime Wednesday with a decision. This would not allow enough time for setup and the local caters to organise food for the event IF the decision was favourable. I pointed that ADBA had been running the same type of event using the same format in Woodenbong for the last seven years and in Urbenville for four years. The financial benefits for the communities were also highlighted.

In Memory of Greg Topping  (7/03/10)

This weekend ADBA remembers dear friend and sweep rider Greg "Toppo" Topping who passed away March 7, 2009. 12 months on we remember a great bloke whos contribution to our rides and to the communties involved with our rides will never be forgotten. Greg "Toppo" is greatly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. Our thoughts this weekend are with Karen, Trent and Luke, and their families and friends. For those who knew Toppo well, looking out the window will make you smile, to him the riding conditions are perfect!
  

**New noise limits in place**

Please make sure that your bike complies with the noise regulations
introduced by Motorcycling Australia.  The regulation noise limit is 94dB. 
Please make sure your bike complies with this as loud bikes may be
tested at the rides.
