Who’s News Jan 1999

Tim Walker crashed his ZX7 at Broadford on Sunday the 31st of January while attending the Superbike School run by Steve Broggy. He crashed at the end of the top straight atß the right hander – the worst place! He suffered a broken collar bone and a cracked rib. The bike is not too good. Tim can be reached at home on phone number 9551-1638. We wish him a speedy and full recovery.

John Willis high sided his near new TL1000 on the St Andrews Road while following Tom Saville on Sunday 24th. John has a sore and swollen right leg and has been hobbling around, continuing to work. The bike was not so lucky and may find a new owner within the Club. Similarly we wish John a full and speedy recovery and look forward to seeing him back in action.

Jack Youdan sent me a note: "There is excellent new road surfacing in the near-Gippsland area. Lyn will appreciate that the contractors have left it clean (no gravel). The Glen Alvie – Kernot – Woodleigh twities road has always been good but the recent resurfacing makes it like the Phillip Island Circuit (yes, it’s that smooth/grippy) – particularly as there are no centre lines yet. ….magic stuff."
