Im thinking of trying to organise a fund raiser ride out for
my local primary school for new books. Would anyone be interested if i go ahead?

yep, depnding on date of course

Depending on date / route / weather, I can usually dig up a few Brizzles for this type of thing.

Have not got that far yet just looking to see if get a few up for it. Date possably around april-may on a week end. Any ideas for routes would be great

i guess you need to look at school location, is it starting or finishing there?
from that point, a route is pretty easy to come up with, how long a route, what type of pace, avoiding towns etc, fuel stops if it's over 100 miles (ducatis)

etc

I have a few weekends free in April and May, know the Somerset and Devon roads well and will be happy to help you plan a suitable route, can make it as long or as short as you like; also need to know whether it'll be a 'Friendly' or if we'll be 'making progress'. Taunton's an excellent jump off point for a ride out - head north into the boondocks and after that the world's your lobster !

If it's a fund raiser run then you'll have to not bring the organisation down, so a friendly style run would attract more, especially if some of the kids parents had bikes and wanted to take part.

. . . . and here's me thinking he said FUN raiser! It's back to Specsavers for me for a refund then . . . . . .

Point taken though, given the organisation involved it probably needs to be a 'friendly' style ride - I'll still help out if needed though.

Just out of interest which primary school?
My daughter goes to OLSP in Teignmouth.

He's from taunton so I'm guessing up that way.

Ohhhhh

Definitely up for that... Make sure it won't clash with Plymouth mega ride or DAAT ride as those will take a lot of folks away...
No idea when those dates are though..

Don't forget RTTB either
