Feb 2022 Exhaust Notes - Edition No 310 

think that I have held every position there is at some time plus doubled up

on a few. I have enjoyed most of my time on the Committee and it has only
been the support of most members that has kept me going. I am proud of
being heavily involved with the Andrew Love Centre Pink Ribbon Rides, the
Dragon Boat Races, the 5 or 6 Geelong Rallies, the Victorian Meet & Greet
Days. All these events have been the initiative of the Geelong Branch whilst
I have been on the Committee.

I have been very lucky to have had a couple of excellent mentors early in my
membership, being John Howie and Darkie Lewry, but also I have had some
really great friends and “guiding hands” with me on the Committees over
the past 9 years. My most enjoyable role within the Branch would have to be
the 7 years that I was the Ride Co-ordinator.

From here I will “try” to step back and let the new blood flow in the Branch,
but I am still prepared to help out with fund raising events, social events
and to lead some rides when asked. Therefore, I will still be around to annoy
some people and to help when requested.

I am looking forward to being an ordinary (maybe not so ordinary) member,
and not being so involved with the decision making of this potentially great

Ulysses Branch.
Cheers,

Ron Howell.

(Soon to be Past President)
