RIDER ASSIST NETWORK (Ran List)
Members of OzSTOC have helped formulate an assistance plan for anyone in this scheme on tour who needs assistance to get going again. This is NOT a replacement for your Motorist Association Membership - just a group of friendlies whom might be able to help out. Keeping Members' personal details PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL has been our paramount concern in planning this scheme.
If you are able to offer some assistance (in whatever capacity your means allow), and you want to be a part of this scheme click this link on how to become part of it: http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=4584.0\ (http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=4584.0\)

OzSTOC UPKEEP & COSTS
It is that time of year again, once a year we open up the account and ask if anyone would like to drop in a couple of dollars to help keep the club running it is appreciated! Brocks Salary package is killing us! Seriously this goes to the costs of the website, printing OzSTOC cards, flags, and many other costs that add up throughout the year. This is by no means compulsory, and only give what you can afford.
