Well, it's that time of the year. The Last Club Day National for the year is upon us so we thought we would do something a little different so we are going to have a Twilight meet. Sign in will be at 1pm and racing about 2pm and should be finished about 5:30-6pm. There will be a BBQ for all after racing has finished. The track will be prepped Friday and/or Sat morning so we would appreciate as many early starters as possible to water and do a bit of a clean up around the place. There will be someone there from 10am onwards. We will also need lap scorers, canteen staff etc. and ALL riders must provide an adult volunteer for flag duty or in the case of Senior riders they can do it themselves in-between races.
On another issue there has been quite a lot of people sending in there licence application/renewals with a cheque attached expecting the club to forward it on for them. The secretary will stamp and sign completed licence forms but will send them back to the applicant to send to MV themselves. We will not send out blank forms stamped and signed as these could be used by non-members to get a licence if lost or stolen.

All nominations for positions can be submitted on or after the 13th. To vote at the AGM you must have attended at least 10 general meetings during the year. The club is always looking for new blood and ideas to help run. It cant survive without the selfless work by these volunteers but it also cant keep falling onto the same old shoulders. If you reckon you're up to the challenge than step forward and take on one of the positions going.

Congats Simon, Chantelle & Dom plus all those who help to make this such a great event.
Much of the praise though has to go to Simon for a fantastic job. Simon was out
at Monza for over a week preparing the track, cleaning up & making sure
we retain the trophy for the best round of the year again. Without members like Simon, who go the extra mile, this would not be the great club it is.
It is efforts like his and others that makes the Rovers the envy of most
other clubs. Well done Simon & family. More to come soon.

From all reports this was the best one yet and regarded as good , if not better, than any other.
Congrats to George & Billy and to all who helped. I will get a more detailed account soon

Brian Nunn and myself are now Level 1 coaches for Juniors. This means we can take Juniors for their compulsory 5 hours to renew their MA licence and kids just starting out (Kick Start Program). We will try and co-ordinate with practice days for the yearly 5 hour licence renewal requirement but we will arrange a separate day from time to time solely for coaching. All coaching and associated log book signing is FREE to all financial Rovers Members. If you need more info ring Dasher (Brian Nunn) 0407846254 or Neale 0427334186

The Club Nationals start this Sunday the 6th of April. There are 6 rounds at this stage, check Club Events for other dates. To race you must be a Financial Rovers Member, have a MA licence or buy a one dayer (5 Hour tuition applies for Juniors) on the day but if you are looking to do the full 6 it is cheaper to get a MA one. You can then do practice without having to buy a rec licence. Dates are on their respective pages and here's a full Race Calendar for the year, MX, Clubbies and Pony X.

The Kangaroo Rally numbers were a little disappointing but the fact there was a
long weekend just before it, the Grand Prix on the same weekend and Easter the
following could explain the low numbers.

Seniors. Big congratulations to Floody and
all the helpers that made our round "Round of the Year". It was a magnificent
effort by all. We get a plaque to keep and the inaugural one for a year. No
doubt we'll get it again next year too. 28/08/2007
Man what a weekend. Perfect weather, perfect track, perfect conditions, perfect
organization, perfect preparation & perfect catering. Now what's one word that
would describe this event?????? I've got it, AWESOME and I don't use that word
lightly (Just ask my kids) but, for once, it is the only word capable of
describing this weekend. As a club we did ourselves proud and as such one person
doesn't usually get singled out above all others but in this case much of the
credit has to go to Andrew Flood (Floody). I'm well aware he had help varying
from lots to a little (It all helps) but in all honesty it just wouldn't have
happen without him, at least to the high standard that this event reached. It is
rare that all you hear is praise but that's exactly what happened here. It's a
credit to the club and we can be proud of ourselves. As for the racing in was
incredible. I don't know the actual results but I do know that a few Rovers boys
trophied. If you didn't get out there YOU MISSED OUT BAD!
