Westgate Wanderers—Official Branch of Ulysses Club Inc

December 2006

Last Sunday saw around twenty seven Westgate Wanderers venture to

Geelong to donate toys and other gifts in the annual Geelong HOGS

Toy Run. And thanks in a large part to John and Lyn Tout who raised

around $125 at an auction for their donation via the Toy Warehouse of

Hoppers Crossing, of plenty of great fluffy toys.

The day started

off with a group

of fifteen riders

and pillions and

one car leaving

Macca’s at 9AM

heading for Gee-

long. Our group

was boosted

with the separate

arrivals of an-

other ten riders.

The day was hot

and were off as

soon as we turned ignitions off. Most members decked their bikes out

with some tinsel. The ride took off at 10.30 and a fair estimate would

have been between 750 and 1,000 bikes. We left Geelong amongst cars

and traffic and

headed for a

break in the park

at Portarlington.

After that it was

onto Queenscliff

for a sausage,

hamburger and

drink. Members

left in a few

groups and met

at BP Avalon for

farewells. All in

all, another good

day on two

wheels!

The

Westgate Wanderers

mission statement:

“To provide our

members with the

opportunity to ride and

grow old disgracefully

amongst like-minded

good friends”

Toy run was a great success
