The AGM started with a round island ride from HDS at 3.00pm on a Saturday (12/9) and landed at the Zoological Gardens (Lodge) at about 4.00pm. It was a very well chosen place amidst the thick foliage with lots of fauna and flora. We were made very welcome by the staff which I appreciated very much.
We got our Tony Goldman as Director and assisted by Barney Philips. I had tried proposing Colin Hughes when I came to understand that Chris Wesley is stepping down but Colin turned down my proposal.
After AGM, it was a short break for the Zoo staff to rearrange the Lodge to a Dinner & Dance setting. We had a live band fronted by all Caucasions which I personally think is most appropriate and sutiable. The buffet was good, wine and beer free-flow, music was inline with HOG's functions and great fun catching ups with other riders. The Zoo also threw in a good show. HDS new GM Dorothy was inspiring besides being sporting. I am always lucky on the lucky draws. Paid $50.oo for the D&D and got every single cents back on the lucky draw besides the many souvenirs.
Ended the night late, hoping to be readied for the next morning event..., the Swing KPE ride!
