Well it's that time of the year again were I rattle the small OzSTOC jam tin >:()......this gets prompted by our groups single biggest expense each year in June our Website/Forum & Maintenance hosting fees that I have just paid....$598.00
You don't need to be involved with this awesome group of people for long to realise it's the members and their passion for the club and its activities that gives OzSTOC it's momentum.
OzSTOC has never had a membership fee to be apart of this club....and those plans remain in place with no vision to change from this time proven concept.
But despite our expectation to be able to participate and view the club forum anytime and it's wealth of content without a second thought for what it costs to "keep the lights on", the reality is we do have ongoing costs to keep our club the premier bike model specific club in Oz.
OzSTOC members have completely free access to ALL general members areas of our club forum that provides all manner of Social and Technical ST and general motorcycling information. From RTE's, technical support and humour through to members discounts with Prefered suppliers. OzSTOC has it all. :thumbsup
In addition to the club forum members have free access to a multitude of other services......including listed RTE's each year in every state of Australia & NZ with the Overnight rides becoming very popular now with the wider membership. We have and maintain a well stocked OzSTOC shop that is constantly accessing new products for the membership. OzSTOC operates a 24hr a day monitored Rider Assistance Network (RAN) that has assisted a number or our members over its inception a few years ago.
Many other new Motorcycle groups in their infancy have consulted our group as we have demonstrated a proven track record of how to remain member focused and member driven in an apolitical social group setting.
We now have a registered membership base of over 1100 members and while it's true that only a smaller number of the membership are obviously active.....we have a very large number of members who are viewing the forum as visitors without logging in and gaining valuable posted information and able to participating in club activities.
So if you feel that you are getting something out of OzSTOC, from the fellowship, the technical information or just the friendly motorcycle banter that forums enjoy we would appreciate your financial support to keep OzSTOC the place to be.
In previous years we have had only small numbers of members financially contribute to the club, (about 5% Wot thuh) lets lessen the burden on the few and have more members give just a little.....but we are only asking for what you get out of the club.....if you think that you get $20 worth of benefit from our club then that's more than appropriate.......if you beleive the club is not worth financially supporting and should simply be grateful for your presence........well then that's OK too, but we cannot last forever on this premise :whistle

I'm a Newbie,
We just come across this post and think its great to have a club that has so many people that are friendly and helpful.
We've just transfered $40 from each of us. We know its late but it's in there.
Thanks to all the members that give up their time to make this club what it is, keep up the great work.
Leah and I look forward to meeting some of you one day, sooner or later "It's a long ride from the Whitsundays"
Cheers Steve :13Candy
