SOFT COGS INCORPORATED - Key Persons


Angela Nguyen - Treasurer

Job Titles:
  • Treasurer
Since 2009, Ange has been swept off her feet by two wheels and one man, and since then has never looked back. She has been instrumental in organising some of the Cogs' larger events, namely the 2012 Soft Cogs Ball.

Bernice Campbell

Has been an active member of the Soft-Cogs since 2007 in organising parts of the ride and campaign. She has been responsible for arranging catering, accommodation and transport arrangements for the entire team - no small feat. After doing the Gongride herself, she's constantly looking at ways/excuses to get off the bike and that includes crashing (deliberately).

Dave Morgan - VP

Job Titles:
  • Vice President
Margo's got an eye on the prize, and an eye on something else. Like an ingrown hair, Margo just keeps coming back - annoying the absolute p!ss out of everyone. Dave doesn't mind a beer, mountain/road biking and pizza (in that order), so it wasn't long before he was nominated to be on the committee.

Kim Nguyen

Job Titles:
  • President & Public Officer
Founded Soft Cogs in 2006 and passionate about promoting responsible riding and helping out the community. In line with his genetics and cultural heritage, Kim is shy, enjoys karaoke and can't swim.

Mick Deaves

We don't know how Ewok got his nickname. But his short, tubby and furry physical features personify his character of frivolity, cuddliness and cheek-squeezing cuteness. Ewok has put body and soul on the line for the cogs, literally, after breaking 8 ribs, 5 vertebrae, a finger and a collapsed lung during one of our MTB rides.

Samantha Morgan

Job Titles:
  • Member - Events Fundraising
Sammi's selfless passion to help others has made her an invaluable member of the committee. Our Soft Cogs events have had more horsepower since her involvement in 2015. She's even sacrificed her own house for post-event review meetings (the night of the events) - where she even slept on the trampoline outside to allow revelers to debrief in peace.

Scott Simpson

Job Titles:
  • Secretary & Online Orders
Scott has been integral in organising the social rides for Soft Cogs Inc. He's a keen road/gravel/mtb rider and doesn't mind a flog on the indoor trainer too!

Shane Kowald

Job Titles:
  • Member - Social Rides
Kowalski is co-founder of the Soft Cogs Cootwalski Award - an award to recognise the achievements of those who like to fly through the air then brush their teeth on the dirt landing. Kowalski enjoys to break things, his promises, his bikes and his body. Looking after the social rides, we're all in good hands!
