Post by: bitzman5 on February 09, 2013, 03:19:56 PM
Hi fellow monkeys today we presented a cheque to Zoe's place a children's hospice for terminal children from our Santa run in December the total amount being £25,171,00p also presented to the air-ambulance 2 special blankets   for the helicopter at a cost of £300 each and a portable 12v suction machine for Zoe's for children with breathing problems  not bad for a 22 mile winter ride. Next one Easter eggs for the old age pensioners in homes

That is excellent Bitzman, you must all be pretty pleased with yourselves. That is an exceptional amount of money for such a relatively small group.  It is also nice to see the money going locally. The Easter run for the elderly sounds good too as they are often forgotten.

I hope your final sum got a mention in the local paper, as I expect the people who saw you on your ride out, wouldn't have thought you would raise so much.

Well done all.

Fantastic amount!  Makes our club's £1200 or so look a bit silly!
