Hey G-man,
WOODY 200
at this point theres a very low number of registrations for the event (12 people).
With the work to prep and the 2 bands we have lined up for the sat night, canteen for 2 days, bar and then followed by the volunteer people to assist in the days for sweeping, timing, tow vehicle etc etc.. id have to say the event is highly unlikely to go ahead at this point in time.
FOR ANYONE READING - IF YOU WANT TO RIDE THE EVENT AND HAVE FRIENDS WHO ALSO ARE KEEN THEN GET THEM TO REGISTER ASAP PLEASE.
Disappointing to say the least.
Suggestions on how we make this event attractive, personally im keen for it as it is, but I think most people think its too hard to ride, too many laps, maybe a lesser lap or team, ala the old pony 2 man team scenario, ie 5 laps each is easier than 10 on your own...I dunno
As far as the club goes, im not sure mate I believe theres a discussion tonight on this event and other club matters (note I call them discussions now coz theres not enough people to call it a meeting anymore (no offense intended to anyone just sayin)
I concur it would be sad to see it all fall over given the last few years efforts from the huge range of people.
Lets hope it doesn't happen.

We need to organise the financial reports before the new insurance quotes can be given. Without a treasurer this is fairly difficult, let alone the fact there is only three of us left to deal with everything club related. We just ned more help on the committee or everything is going to come to a grinding halt.

Hi guys,
It is with great regret that i say that the woody 200 will be cancelled and any further events will be cancelled at this stage. There are a number of contributing factors at play
we have not got the the correct insurance to run this event or any of the events we have run preoviuosly. this has only come to light recently as we have had limited acces to our insurance documents for the past few years. after a few discussions and emails backwarsd and forwarsds with our broker he has informed us of the major defiency in our cover to be able tocontinue to hold races.
To recitfy this problem we need to complete a full financial audit to allow the insurance company to assess the clubs position and the extent of liabilty in the event of a claim. The only problem with that is that we have received the books in the past couple of weeks and there seems to be a huge defiency in the books (little to no information).
we have been trying to peice some information together but there is really too much work just for the three remaining committee members.
As there has not been anyone step up to help out it has left us with no choice but to cancel events going forward.
it is unfortunate that after such a succesful run for the club that we are in this position.
if anyone has any question please just send a pm or email to me, mel or craig.
cheers murph
