Fundraiser for Tony Lagor- -prize - 1979 Yamaha YZ250F Kindly donated by Steve Gallichan of "Tricky Dicky Racing"
Tony Lagor is a NZ VMX rider who is passionate about his C&J Hondas.
Tony wrote not so long ago about his bucket list. He has been diagnosed with Motor Neurone disease.
The bucket list included" riding in The Johnny Old VMX in March this year ( this dream will come true ) and also to attend an Australian VMX event.
This is where Steve Gallichan has stepped in and donated the 1979 Yamaha YZ250F..this will be on display at the opening of Steves museum on 11 February 2012 in New Plymouth.
So this is where we need your support:
Tickets are going to be $25 both NZ and Aussie $$ These will be limited to only 300 tickets. All proceeds will go into helping Tony.
Tickets can be preordered from emailing [email protected] or phoning Jo on 027 242 5342. They will be for sale at the next VMX round in New Plymouth on 12 February also.
Raffle will be drawn on 10 May 2012 or hopefully earlier if tickets are sold before hand.
Warren Summers from Thames Publications has kindly offered to print the tickets.
So, don't miss out on your tickets.......

Good on ya's Kirky and Steve, I'll definately be up for a handfull of tickets.....i'll have a look in my closet and see what I can send to add a bit of bling to it, will be in contact, cheers John.

Great idea ;D Tony is a top bloke and a real battler :) hes an active forum member Sudman and its a bastard hes going through this.
Please support this raffle its a great prize :). If an Aussie wins it they could keep it here to race over here or sell it on .
Really its not about the prize though , its about helping one of our own :)
Well done lads and Steve you are a real good bastard that is a very generous prize 8) should probably post up some pics Asap.
Joan well done for offering to handle Aussie ticket sales i know you will sell a heap ;)
-
I lost a mate to Motor Neurone disease not so long ago, so I'll put my hand up for some tickets.
Good luck with it all, fellas.
Keep us posted with any other fundraising you might be doing.

Yep, hopefully an Aussie that can ride wins it! He/she can then go over there and kick their butts on their own soil on a bike that they gave him! :D :D :D

Seriously, I hope they got rid of all the tickets and the money helps Tony and his family out a little.
