I think it will get off the ground quicker this year after all the ground work last year. I passed the black file to jon after bttb so hopefully it's down to re contacting people.

Might just buy a new bike for it, I said that last time though.

Totally agree, it should be alot easier this year around.

Nominations for charities closes on Friday so please ensure your nominations are put forward.

If they are being put in this thread then:

nominations:
1) Les Brechin charity (i'm sure it's not called that but see it from time to time and think it would a good move)
2) MS society. (i'm grandad had this and will always have a place in my heart for the work they did to give the quality of life in the later years)


If we are going local then:
St Andrews (again they have helped family members on the GF's side)
Doorstep (GF's grandad did loads of work for these in his time as a youth worker)

The charities can be national or local it is literally up to the people who vote, every nomination will be put on a poll and people will then get to vote.

My choice is for the trust, given that they help fund the club itself and also their funding as we see brought success with the youth team winning the youth cup final.

I have nominated Brain Tumour UK (Les does a lot to raise money for them after his experience) I feel it would be a great charity, saying that there are so many good and worthy causes!

The Trust is a good one but just feel we would get more sponsorshio money and coverage for one that can help to prevent deaths in the future.

i would say Brain Tumour UK and possibly the youth team. I no it's not a charity but it wouldn't hurt to help them out.

If I'm not on shift I would like to take part, with a new bike, hopefully, how about a donation to the family of Clare Wilson.

This may sound daft but why don't we walk to Sincil Bank? It would save on logistical issues? All you need is some sound hiking boots, a wind up tourch and a fluecent jacket, plus we could set off earlier just a thought, probally not my best thought out. I just see some problems with a Winter Bike ride, ie tempretutre, weather conditions etc, plenty of time but a charity event is a good thing and shows we are prepared to do something worth while

Why don't we just have a "drive to the bank". then lazy b@stards like me can join in  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
