A call for volunteers

[Mad Doug Biker]

I just thought it was meant as ourselves cycling between certain points on his behalf for charity?

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

But yes, a tour of the bike in question with a passenger, or passengers for each leg would be good.
It'd all be for charidee anyway!


Please ask if we can at least have his backing if nothing else!

 

[ufkacbln]

Does it need a passenger?

Surely a relay with alternating passenger / driver mode would work?

Reward the previous pilot by a passenger ride

 

[mickle]

How about this*?

*without the lecky motor.

 

[Night Train]

Ooohhh, nice!

Looks like the chair detaches to be used on its own. I like that.

 

[mickle]

Very excited about this in the office.

What do we have so far?

Land's End to John McGroats relay of CC members (pedalling sections of the route local to them).
I'm happy to loan our demo 'Companion' wheelchair tandem.
Each rider to arrange their own sponsorship? Each rider to drum up local press interest?
What's the aim? In aid of which charity(ies)? Stroke charity only? Or shall we let the passenger decide??
Who will be the passenger(s)? One passenger for each leg? (sic) or one passenger for the whole way?
Will it need a back-up van? So, if a rider turns up on their bike to the start of his or her leg, the van can carry their bike to the end of the section - and they can jump back on and pedal home.

Is next April too far away?

Didn't Josie Dew do this already?

Add me to the list of interested parties ... a great idea.

 

[ComedyPilot]

I think one charity only, as it 'could' get a little confusing with multiple riders/charities.

People that donate (if they're like me) only want one good cause at a time.....if that makes sense?

Please have some of the LEJOG Route through Yorkshire and I'll ride York northwards for 1-2 days.

 

[BigonaBianchi]

I'd be interested to know more about the bikes you sell.

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

The passenger could be a choice of your own. Personally I'd probably take my Mum and our dog Cindy for a ride!!

 

[mcshroom]

You've my pedalling as well if it helps.

Coming back to the original York request though, there is a group of cyclists based round York over on YACF, would you mind if I linked to this thread over there?

 

[mickle]

Not at all @mcshroom , go for it.

 

[Enid Agnus Dei]

I live in York can you message me please author of this post? thank you.

 

[classic33]

Count me in if you do go ahead with this @mickle.
The one pictured at the top of this page(page two) can be a bugger to ride. And any movement by the passenger can be hard to control.

If its a sponsered ride, why not let Roy decide what the money will be raised for?

 

[Dave hypahippy]

If there is any transport to York and Back I'll do it I'd Cycle there But it would take a Week !!
