i can't make it to auckland or wellington but i want to donate again. We have already donated to the red cross earthquake appeal could only manage $50 this week but i guess every dollar counts.

Mate you don't need to stretch yourself financially with this. You can do your part by making sure that every rider you know is very welcome to come along or donate too.

I will post details for maha's account in a sec on the OP.sorted

(use wgtnquake as a reference)

Will be there with bells on - oh, ok, some cloths too. But, won't have a bike to ride. So am hoping someone could take me as a pillion?

she's only tiny ya wouldn't even know she was there!!!!

I'll be there - bike is legal now

Will try to get some donations off family and friends to bring along too.

Well done Biker community - such an easy thing for us to do to help out

AND will be nice to see BIKES holding up traffic round the inlet for a change too! Actually I guess that might not be the way we go - anywho whatever.

BIG thank you to coffeejunkie and ms piggy for getting the details to the radio stations for us

Thanks Blackdog for making a dedicated thread

We will be alerting the other biker groups in Wellington to assist, ride marshals etc.

We see this as a united effort from all groups and applaud ALL the organisers for taking the initiative to get the first run in Auckland under way, inspirational indeed.
Ratti here on KB was first to hit our committee up to get behind one here in Welly (as far as I know) and I have been updated with correct information that Blackdog is lead organiser here in Welly

Not meaning to hi-jack anything here in any way, just to throw all our resources into this as support.

BRONZ are looking into getting a ride badge sponsored and made - and we have taken the liberty of getting that effort underway.

We also have started organizing some entertainment at the PnJ that will have a small door charge also to be donated - the bands will play free and our mates at PnJ are almost guaranteed to provide free venue but will update in this thread as we get confirmations

FYI we are seeking corporate sponsors for the badge manufacture - many bike shops are already tapped out and have donated very heavily for the BRONZ Easter Run and may not be in position to pick up these badge costs

Thanks all who will support this initiative

Guys, please be aware Christchurch coordinators are saying NO CLOTHES they have heaps and NO BLANKETS they have heaps of those as well

They want CASH
They have not the manpower to deal with material donations.

I work for a govt org thats at the coalface of this emergency, thats straight from the horses mouth team

KBers always unite so well in these times, I am very proud of you all, and Blackdog, great work mate.

Pete - maybe your shop could do a whip around, and provide ONE rider on the day as a visible support?
Also was hoping to get to Garry for some sponsorship - but hear he is away anyone esle you can point me at there????

PM me man
