It might be a good idea to vote early at your local prepoll voting station or apply for a postal ballot, as the Bike Show (28 March) falls on the same day as the NSW state elections! Pick up forms (for the latter) at any pre-poll booth in your neighbourhood.

The organizing committee of the bike show have always been keen to involve the local community. Hence from last year we've made attempts to include local schools in the said event. We were particular keen on encouraging local school bands. However to date we've had no response from schools in the Marrickville area.
Does anyone have suggestions.

St Peters have both a recorder and ukulele outfit, but I'm not sure I could recommend either in good conscience

It doesnt matter what they sound like. More interested in a contact person within their music program maybe.
M'ville Public and High schools are impossible to contact.

The banner is up and doing the rounds locally.

Keep an eye out for it!

Now, where is this?

What about Newtown performing arts high?

I could see if my 14-year-old son's rock band from Dulwich High wants to play? They did a gig at Summer Hill PS last year with a kick-ass cover of The Stooges "I Wanna Be Your Dog".

What's the go with dropping off cakes/biscuits and the like? Just bowl up at 11 and fumble thru it, or do you want them down there earlier?

Hi Greg and Sue,

According to the run sheet, the left side gates close at 10.30, so if you want to drop off goodies by car, please get there before then. Or come at 11 and walk down though the tunnel into the infield.

We had a magnificient turnout today.
Our counters said we hit in excess of 700 plus attendees for the day. We even had approx 150 people enter before the official opening at 11am!
The Valley Wheelers, whose brains and brawn made this possible, we're magnificent. Thank you to all our club helpers. Won't try to name all of you for fear of missing someone out.
A detailed report and pictures will follow.

For more info and photos on the 2015 Sydney Classic Bicycle Show, go to our Facebook page; 'Sydney Classic Bicycle Show'.

The organisers of the 2015 Sydney Classic Bicycle Show (held annually since 2013) formally handing over all taking$ to the DHBC Treasurer Andrew Belford on the 13th August 2015.

A grand total of $3,240 was handed over to the DHBC executive committee.


DHBC Valley Wheelers' (L-R), Lizanne Wilmot, Marc Rerceretnam, Ian Carswell, DHBC Treasurer Andrew Belford and John Johnson.

Not included in this figure was 'in-kind' sponsorship equivalent to $930 from minor sponsors of the 2015 Sydney Classic Bicycle Show; Treadlie Magazine, Philip Le Masurier Photography, Peter Bundy Cycles, and OORR jerseys. Most of this was given away as competition and raffle prizes at the event.

Major sponsors of the 2015 event was Ashfield Cycles, Monkeysee and Pedal Pushers.

Unofficial figures for previous years takings (all given directly to the DHBC exec committee) were:
2013 - $1,823
2014 - $2,473

Outstanding Team. Well done Wheelers!

Awesome work. Looking forward to the 2016 edition.
