The winning team, with a score of 130 points, were the ‘Latecomers’ comprising Neal Hallett, Rod Callaghan, David Thompson and David Crunden. The individual winner was Sharon Johnston. During the day a raffle was run and after the dinner an auction was held. The result of this was a total of £4,270, to go towards buying a new vehicle.

Riders Keith and Anthony received the cheque from Billingshurst Lions President Peter Coleman at a subsequent Lions Club meeting.
