I will try and drag my arse out of bed early for this run this Sunday.

This is WIMA'S main charity and for the last 12 years the Linen Run has been held around NZ as a means of fund raising as well as raising awareness for the Refuges work. Aucklands first run was in 1994.

• There will be a Mystery prize draw at the end of the run.
• Any donations of new or used linen, towels, bedding or childrens and adults clothing very welcome.

It turned out to be a nice day for a short ride. Good to see a few KB members out there. Only took a couple of photos which I have added to the gallery.

I must figure out a good way to take photos while riding. Images of bikes on the move are much better than bikers loitering about their parked machines.

Well. a record turnout for what is normally a small run - the power of a bit of advertising??  Now, if we can only convince them to make the ride a bit longer.............

a tripod mount shouldn't be too hard to mount to your triple clamp and a cable release to a thumb trigger similar to foggy's back brake should be easy to customise.

Any decent engineer should be able to do it.

Any good camera shop should be able to supply you with a camera mount that looks a lot like a G-clamp. This should clamp on to the bars or mirror stem easily enough - just attach a strap between yourself and the camera in case it does let loose!

Or to a sissy bar for rearward facing shots of those following but that would take some practice with a remote release to get decent oncoming photos of those facing you.
