Bike to the Bank/Park - Charity Bike Ride

Quoted from tellnoramariner

Cheers Citymariner, just checked the facebook page out, seems its coming along well with plenty of support!

Didn't the club recently ask everyone to print out an advert of their own by leaving a link to a pdf document asking people to put it in the any place possible? Basically free publicity and gains much more awareness of what is going on!

Wouldn't it be possible to do the same sort of thing, surely the club would support that on the O.S. and could proivde a link to the advert as well as on here, G.O., C.A., GTST etc? Just a thought...

might be worth bringing up when lincolnsmariner has a meeting with the club

The club have already agreed to advertise ths event for us, we will be linking details of the club on the facebook group.
The facebook group is a basic group and to spread the word to more people has it has over 10million members.

The website http://www.biketothebank.co.uk will be the main source of info once it is live, which hopefully will be within 48 hours.

One group managed to get 5k from doing it for 6 hours at mine, some local football team wanting to go on tour to italy.

We could get a large percentage from that, or even double the target?

well if we do it at the 2 stores then i think we'll achieve a massive amount, maybe if we asked the asda workers on here if they could ask their boss to let us do it there also. we could make a very nice sum of money

I have just about sorted it with all, the offer has always been there from asdas but i didnt think many wud be up for it so i said would get back to them. We wood need about 10-15 volunteers to give up there sundays. Obv alot play football so anyone even if not riding would help, please contact me via pm if interested.

i know people well up for bag packing, you can do it in rota's and alsorts.

doing it in lincoln - you've got all the city fans too

we should have a lil competition going see which fans raise the most money

bit of banter and helps get more money

Without sounding funny, the lincoln one, this is why ive asked you to come along as then we know the people handling the money, ive got 3 lads from work doing the ride for lcfc, so i can trust them but other imps i wont know them so you know, i wont trust them so to speak lol
Does that make me sound bad?

this isnt a competition, make it a competition and thats when things go wrong!
