Two New Sponsors
The Warnbro Sound Wanderers are getting very excited about the 2007 Odyssey at Rockingham.
We are delighted that two more sponsors have come on board, Malibu Fresh Essentials and Lovell Jewellers.
Basil at Malibu Fresh has very kindly donated a substantial amount of cash. The shop at Malibu Shopping Centre, Malibu Road, Saftey Bay is very centrally located not only during the Odyssey but for all the local Wanderers. The Webmaster often shops there and can personally recommend the fresh fruit and vegies (it makes a change from the pizza, pies, hamburgers and cakes normally seen on our rides).
Martin from Lovell Jewellers has once again made a generous donation. This time "His and Hers" Ulysses rings in sterling silver. Make sure you get your raffle tickets for these and other great prizes. Lovells are down on the beach front at Sunray Village in "old" Rockingham.

sponsors.

Britton's Motorcycles donate Raffle Prize
Kim and Dale Britton have very kindly donated a Hyosung SB50 Super Cab Scooter which will be used as the major raffle prize.
Small and nimble with a low centre of gravity, the electric-start Hyosung SB50 Super Cab has been assiduously crafted with a commerical focus in mind. Of course, it's purely up to you, but a scooter which pays scant attention to the price of crude oil, tips the scales at a svelte 70kg, and has dual headlights for faultless night-time vision must be onto something good. What's more, there's enough underseat storage to swallow a helmet and associated nick-nacks, while an option colour-matched top box stitches up the leftover cargo market. Telescopic front forks ensure a smooth ride on all road surfaces, and the zippy 50cc engine, feeding an automatic transmission, is as tough as nails. No longer does a low price mean you have to compromise on quality.
Kim's newly expanded shop is only just down the road from the Odyssey site, so drop in and say hello and mention the Odyssey.

Welcome to Shannons Insurance
Hi Fellow Ulyssians,
This years Odyssey is sponsored by Shannons Insurance. They are donating $2000 towards the event. This will help us when booking venues and caterers as we won't have to use our branch money for the deposits. It will also help keep any price rises down to a minimum, without having to compromise the quality of the event.
Our part of the deal is we hand out quote forms to all W.A. branches. If Shannons gets a good response, they will consider sponsoring the Odyssey every year. This will be a great help, especially for some of the smaller branches.
So please send in the forms, it is only to ask for a quote. Shannons doesn't insure everyday riders, they are geared towards enthusiasts and club members.
Thanks, and hope to see you at this years Odyssey.
