hey dj i keep checking the live wire site no one talks to much there dont you guys get along
and what the feltons story
-
Paul, I just gave Ross(Livewire Webmaster) a whole lot of photos and he has got them up on the website. But as for the forum, maybe most kiwis aint to talkative or something??
The story on the Feltons is that Mike Felton has been involved with the vintage scene for some time up in Auckland (classic scrambles club) and as a few of the guys down this way know him and found out that his daughter is very sick (complaticions at child birth) decided to run a VMX meeting at Taupo with an auction the night of the meeting. All the auction items were donated by the guys at the meeting and all the money raised was given to the Feltons to help them cover the cost of taking there daughter to china for a year to help her with the illness she has. There were about 40/50 or so riders at the meeting and the entry and auction money totaling about $4600 was gladly handed to Mike and his lovely wife Jackie. Mike is a top bloke and loves the VMX scene and helps who ever he can, how ever he can.
