Hey guys, long time for me on posting a message here, last time was when I was on a 250 doing a NZ wide road trip. Big favor to ask, and I've left this really late. Basically I have an issue. Well, I have lots of them, but this is pretty singled out!

I really want to go on the toy run from Cambridge to Hamilton, I have a teddy (long story as to why I have it) but Id love to donate it. The thing is this teddy is huge. It's about 6ft tall, it's the size of a person. I've got a Daytona 675 and it's next to impossibe and dangerous to have the teddy as a pillion.

What I was wondering was this - are there any people going to be in cages with a spare seat for the teddy?

I may not be on Kiwibiker for lot longer, so any takers or interested people, give me a txt on - oh two one, 334312.

I live in Lichfield as well, so may have to be people in the area.

Just thinking - I may take a car actually, put teddy in the passenger and put a spare helmet on top of the car (got roof rack) - so people know it's a biker in the cage, but due to the size of the teddy could not be on a bike!

The teddy is really, really big.

Ended up just going by car, was easiest option!

Nah, don't have kids, was a prezzie for someone else, but was an unwanted gift. The kids down there thought it was pretty cool though!

Totally would have gone for that - got suited up and everything, looked around for something to tie the teddy to me, and couldn't find a thing! Would have been awesome though!

Oh well, next year!

Least the teddy got to the destination and some lucky kid will get an awesomely huge teddy bear! Lost my wallet in the process which wasn't so cool, the drivers license is probably the worst thing I'd want to lose. No cash in there anyways, so all good!

Photos would be cool of Minnie Mouse!
