London to Brighton team RAD 11th September
« on: March 08, 2011, 07:19 PM »
Okay, every year we do a small ride around the streets of London for a chosen charity.....As some of you may know i work in the NHS and the people at work asked if i would do something for them instead?
So come September 11th myself, Griff, Spike371 and Level have signed up to do a London to Brighton ride on our BMXs  :idiot2:

part of the Trust that i work for is called The St Marks Trust and is nationally known as one of the best bowel and intestinal Hospitals in the country, they perform ground breaking surgery and were one of the first places to do bowel cancer screening.

We have put a couple of justgiving sites together, Griff has done a seperate one due to his firm promising to match the first £500 he raises, so please feel free to donate a few quid to either of them (it all goes to the same place i guess) and if anyone else wants to join us (there is a couple of others from my Trust doing it as well) then please feel free and just let me know so i can send you the links  :daumenhoch:

been messing about on pc after scanning my race plate - wanted to see how it might look as I was worried I wouldn't be able to fit many sponsor names on there
should have plenty of room actually even after putting the St Mark's logo on (sorry pickle couldn't resist giving it the Brighton 'rainbow' treatment   :angel:)
will do the real one in proper colours  ;D



anyone else up for this?

Not a chance mate, we stick together, keep the pace up and take it in turns at the front to pull each other to the top.
