Tin Run, hand over to the local Round Table

I wrote earlier about the fantastic effort put in by members of the Meeulanders Motorcycle Club at out annual tin run, where we cajole and persuade members of the public to donate non perishable food items from the local supermarkets.
By the time we had loaded it all together we estimated a very commendable 1,4 to 1,5 tons of foodstuffs.
Sunday 10th September saw members of the club gather, together with members of the local chapter of the Round Table Association for the official handover at Juffroshoogte which was then followed by breakfast.










Linicia and Sooi were there, recently returned from overseas, Greg a good friend from Velddrif joined the occasion.
Great to see Daan and Bev there, our Nomadic members having just returned from an 8,000 odd kilometer motorbike trip up north, I look forward to hearing some details of their journey.

Very well done to all concerned, you've heard me say this before; I'm proud to be associated with such a fine bunch of people, my family.

Awesome!! The most you see clubs doing around here are 'toy runs' so it is always nice to see the other good things that clubs do. Good on ya!
