Treasurer's Message
Jan 2010

On behalf of the executive committee I would like to express a warm thank you and appreciation to all our MB members for maintaining true grit and determination to see us through some turbulent and testing issues in 2009. 2010 will see us face more challenging and tough adversaries but as a once famous statesman and philosopher Edmund Bourke (1729 – 1797) said,

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”. Remember always that our strength lies not in defence but in attack”

And for our MB Brothers in the west as Lieutenant Clifton B. Cates said on the 19 July 1918 in Belleau Wood,

“I have only two men out of my company and 20 out of some other company. We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will hold”

May I ask that all members keep up their commitment in maintaining their CBF and other contributions to the club.

I look forward to riding with you all in 2010.
