18.5.2012 @11.00am Ken This Sunday Farewell Ride for Doug This Sunday 20th the ride for Doug will depart the Western Hotel (Corner Sturt St and Rippon St South) at 11.30 am.
Doug will be along for the ride along with his Perkins bike. The ride will do a lap of the lake before venturing out to Gordon, Springbank and Potilla.
There will even be a little dirt road that Doug found so enjoyable, so much so that he was an advocate for some dirt to be included into a club race. Total distance will be approximately 60km and then return to The Western for Belgian beer and nibbles and Doug tales.
The start time allows for riders from Melbourne to come up and taken part to honour Doug's memory.
6.5.2012 @8.00am Ken Farewell to Doug
Jenny asked me to pass on some details of the arrangements for us to say farewell to our beloved Doug.
There will be a small, family cremation. Jenny said Doug had been
through enough near-death experiences that he and Jenny had talked about
what they wanted one another’s funeral arrangements to be. Doug made it
clear that he didn’t want a big fuss, nor did he want to be talked
about by a celebrant he didn’t know. So there won’t be a big funeral.
Instead, in addition to the rides already organized this weekend, there will here 2.5.2012 @8.00pm Ken Doug Garley RIP
The Eureka Veterans are saddened at the news of Doug Garley's passing, following a tragic road accident on the 1.5.2012, out doing what he loved so much riding. All who new Doug would agree his passion for riding, generosity of time and love of life were his greatest assets. As one of the founding members of the EVCC and our first club champion his legacy will be will live on in our hearts and minds. He was a great mate and marvellous mentor, husband and father. Our thoughts are with Jenny and the boys. here 26.4.2012 @2.00pm Phil Big Weekend ahead
OK Eureka club racers have you checked the calender for the up coming races? As you will see that after this weekend we do not get a race for the following 3 weeks, so to avoid any withdrawl symptoms make sure you get your entries in to ride & let us see if we cannot have a record number on the start line for this year! Come on lets see if we can get 30+ this week maybe even 40+ or am I dreaming? 19.4.2012 @2.00pm Phil Team Time Trial this weekend
Team Time Trial this Sunday. For those that ride out on a mark who may think the others may be too fast remember that the team MUST stay together for at least two thirds distance. It is also a good race to impart knowledge to others. So fast or slow give it a go.
