Christchurch Quake Appeal Ride (Wgtn) (Sat 19 March)

[gunrunner]

You could be the 'ambasador' at the Cliff hanger and do a collection there for us Deano????

Then put the cash into Maha's account to be passed on?

Just a thort but we could always incorporate the ride with them and call in there .
A Eartquake releif badge or patch is a brillant idea they will all sell .

[gunrunner]

I just wanna help the folk of Christchurch anyway I can, and I don't need a badge for that either.

Each to there own but i think its a brillant idea , as yrs later it will be there to show you and others that we pitched in and helped them in some way .

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?

I can confirm that the event at the Parrot n Jigger is going ahead on Saturday 19th from approx 12.00 lunchtime to end of closing. There will be badges sold as a fundraiser- if you dont wish to purchase then buckets will be on the bar to collect your donation. Possibly a cover charge also going to the Red Cross..

Great - this is the important information - the event will be a success no doubt and big ups.

I will buy a badge, someone else can have it.

Isn't Stoney doing the ride thing and Ratti's crew doing the shindig at the PnJ?

To sort a few misunderstandings.

BRONZ Wellington (that includes Ratti as she ios on our commitee) is doing the gig at PnJ

Blackdog deserves ALL the credit for the ride organisation, and despite our personal histories, good work is simply good work and I commend him for the efforts taken.
BRONZ will be available to assist, and is getting a ride badge created to bolster the financial take (its NOT a BRONZ ride tho)

Hope that claifies?

PnJ has 3 bands on and gold coin collection for the duration of the gig
And a free venue
That is what BRONZ and the PnJ have arranged, rest is Blackdog's kudos, well earned too.

Way to go Ian, I look forward to riding with you again on the 19th, will you need Marshals?
BRONZ can ask a few other groups with the required experience to marshal if you like?

Dont know if you can access this, but this is the a/c I got when I was talking with the Red Cross last week.

its the ASB bank. You must put the full name on it so it gets allocated to the correct fund.

hope this helps

Just to muddy the waters just a little bit more the funds raised from the ride that was organised is going to the Salvation Army. It even says so in the first post. The ride was a spin off from one that Maha is organising up here. Best you get that clarified.

Yes you will have a bike for this ride Katie..... The 500 is available, with a full tank of gas, a new wof and reg and raring to go. I will not take no for an answer.

My apologies for thread hi-jack but.....

A very good friend of mine in the UK is doing a sponsored swim for charity. I have agreed (gulp!!!) to match her. 3 miles a week for the duration of March (15 miles). I'm now looking for sponsors. All sponsership money will go to the Christchurch Earthquake fund via Westpac. Westpac have agreed to match everything a staff member donates. So come on guy's, back the cause and pledge. Just another way of helping those folks down ChCh.
I will start a new thread to cover this but thought under the cicumstances
