Getting Luke to Portugal for the Red Bull Racing - fundraising meeting

[Nasty]

This young man has an awesome opportunity http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=79221 ... but it comes at quite short notice. This leaves Luke and his dad with needing to raise around $8 k to cover the trip away and any additional expenses.

I propose that those who wish to help, coming up with ideas/suggestions, come to a meeting at our place and we put our heads together to come up with some viable ideas and work out how to do them.

It will be 5 pm at Nasty and Grubs (PM us for details on Saturday we are at the races so won't reply till we get home).

Lets help get this kid there.

I set it up in the calander as well - http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=1702&day=2008-8-24

Would love to be able to help Luke and Aj get there but as I dont live any where near Wellington I cant make the meeting :(

If you want any help in any way Nasty please give me a shout.

Maybe this thread could be in the general forum?

Won't be at the meeting will be off seeing my poor bro' again but happy to donate some cash on behalf of me and Mrs merv. Waiting for AJ or mudboy to PM me the account number (no response :zzzz:) or can you send me that Nasty? - might get to me quicker from your house, hasn't got so far to go huh :cool:

Update: AJ sent me the details so did a bank transfer last night so all sweet.

Good luck to young Luke and do us proud man :banana:.

so how did you all get on?

dont know if it came up as an idea but what about getting someone thats "in the know" to run some basic clinics, basic suspension set up / basic engine work that sort of thing. id pay to come along to a suspension night.
or maybe a racing theory night, how to pick a good line, when / where to brake ...

just an idea.
