Ulysses Melbourne

R U Silly?  You're going on a Ulysses Ride today?!

Just because it was only 6 degrees, foggy and raining and about 1 degree near our destination, why wouldn't I go?    After all I was suffering bike riding withdrawal symptoms after towing the bed, kitchen and living room (aka caravan)  around and into the tropics for the last 12 weeks and I'd rung Greg to say that I'd try and make it.

Steve Bailes and I have booked to do a motorbike tour with Adriatic Mototours next April. Tour starts in Venice, Italy on 18th April 2020 and ends back in Venice on 3 May. 
From Venice we head across Tuscany visiting, amongst other places, Pisa, Assisi and Florence before catching a ferry to Sardinia from Livorno. A ride around Sardinia then another ferry to Corsica for a lap of that island and then a ferry back to Italy and the Cinque Terra before riding back to Venice.

At the branch's last committee meeting it was decided that the branch try and locate all those , 'Bits n' pieces,' flags, memorabilia,

vests, BBQ stuff and start an inventory of what the branch has and where it is. So, if you have some branch gear that ended up at your place

and you want to get rid of it, or, let the branch know it's there, give one of the committee a call.

Treasurer Rick Rycken is handling the inventory list so any questions please contact Rick.
