ooops...............
Sorry gentlemen, I think I need to reword the advert...............
Firstly, I must clarify that any donations received will go straight to the cause regardless and not into my pocket. We have an independant auditor to assure that this doesn't happen.
Both Tony Kirby and I happy to fund the ride part ourselves as we're getting 3 weeks of great riding out of it and a great adventure. Under no circumstances will donations be used to pay for the ride itself. We are using some of the money for raffle ticket printing etc. but the bike/ride stuff is our contribution.
Therefore, all donations are most gratefully received, but it won't make any difference to my personal financial postion and my decision to sell these bikes to make the ride more enjoyable.
I hope makes more sense and I didn't mean to make it sound like 'poor old me' needs money.
I'm more than happy to sacrifice a couple of bikes that are going nowhere in my shed for the experience of this ride.
Sorry to hear about your Dad, Matt. I lost both my parents to cancer so imagining a child going through that is what drives me to help where I can.
Cheers
Tony
PS I've adjusted the original post to suit.
