MACMILLAN CANCER CARE WELSH RIDEOUT IN JULY/AUGUST
« on: May 03, 2011, 02:53:03 PM »
hi all, im new on here but wanted to see what response I get from you all.
Having lost close members of the family to CANCER, I know raise money for MACMILLAN CANCER CARE that do a great job of looking after the victims and their families.
I have a group of keen experienced bikers around me that are sitting down planning a full days rideout route around the Welsh Valleys and mountain roads. It wont be till late July and I will advertise it thoroughly when I confirm dates.
We will be meeting at a location in Newport.
Everyone who comes will pay £15 fee payable on the day and a thankyou certificate from myself on behalf of Macmillan. Please drop me a post to let me know your ideas and when I get all the posters run off maybe I can send them to you all to advertise in your club.
Thankyou for any support
Mark

we have chosen the route, via a cuppa at ABERGAVENNY and a dinner at Llandovery before the trek back, it will be a good ride out on a SUNDAY EARLY AUGUST in aid of MACMILLAN CANCER CARE, £10 fee donation. Please message me any addresses of bike clubs or any other info that may help us with publicity, thankyou

Macmillan Nurses are super, wonderful, excellent & jolly good too.
I hope to be with you. Keep us posted.

Just a thought but how about ride around a good chunk of Wales. Riders could join at various points & drop off when they like. You might get more this way & after all the point is to get as many £10 as possible.

This will be an organised event so police might have to be informed. Ask The Stig about this as he is running a Welsh Ambulance charity ride.
