The Mildura Meander was held over the week end of the 15/16th of May. A dozen or so BSAOC members travelled the short journey to Mildura, to enjoy a fun weekend of near perfect weather, great hosts and fantastic riding. Many thanks to the Sunraysia Historic Motorcycle Club for putting on a very enjoyable rally. It was great to support the rally, putting the chaos that COVID caused last year behind us.
Long time BSAOC member, Geoff Barnes was presented with the ‘Barnesey’ Award at the rally. Accompanied by his loving wife, Hellina, Geoff received the award from Jack McCarthy, President of the Sunraysia Historical Club (SHMC), at the rally dinner, on Sat night. The dinner, a very formal affair by Mildura standards, with ‘Coveralls Formal’ being the dress of the night. The award read:
THE BARNESEY AWARD
To Geoff and Hellina
For your Friendship and Commitment to the ‘Mildura Meander’ for over 10 years
‘The return trip by BSA and Sidecar
Each attendance is an outstanding achievement’.
The Committee and Members of the SHMC.
Well done to Geoff and Hellina, and well done to the SHMC!
