Phil's whole recreational life revolves around motorcycles, motorcycle racing and also the Ulysses Club. We as a Branch Committee of the Wollondilly Wanderers recommend him as a worthy candidate for the presentation of a Dearnley Medal.

The National Committee was pleased to approve the nomination and Phil was presented with Dearnley Medal #75 at the AGM held 15 May 2021 in Orange, NSW.
