For the Sydney and Central Coast people, we will be leaving Uncle Leo’s (Servo/Diner) just south of the Cross Roads Hotel, south of Liverpool on the Old Hume Highway at 9am. We will travel down the old Highway trying to avoid the freeway until Marulan (time permitting) and then our first stop will be Yass at the Servo & Maccas.

VALE – RAY SMALL
February 3, 2010
It is with a very sad heart that I must inform everyone of the passing of yet another long standing Blue Liner, this time it was my great mate Ray Small.
Ray was invloved in a motorcycle accident in Thailand, where he has lived for the past two years. It is unclear exactly how the accident happened but he was riding his motorcycle at the time.
Ray was cremated in Thailand yesterday and his family was there and said that it was a beautiful ceremony.
Ray’s ashes will be returned to Australia and his family has organisd a Memorial Service for next Monday, 8 February at 47 Brittania Road, Castle Hill, off Showground Road meeting at 10.30am and afterwards at the Fox Hills Golf Club, Gt Westtern Hwy, Prospect.
His family has asked that as many of his friends attend and they would love to see a motorcycle escoort from the service to Fox Hills.
I am sure you all are with me when I offer me sincere condolences to Ray’s family, he will be missed by many.
Best regards
Ray Robinson
President
