Icing on the cake......

Have just received a message that the BBC shirt signed by;
Valentino Rossi,
Jorge Lorenzo,
James Toseland,
Carl Crutchlow,
Danny Webb,
Leon Haslam,
Ian Hutchinson,
Jonathan Rea,
Keith Amor,
David Johnson,
James Whitham,
John McGuinness,
Neil Hodgson,
Ian Lougher
is now framed and ready to collect (will take a pic of it when I collect it tomorrow) and therefore also ready to auction as the final icing on the cake of fundraising for GOSH and KidsCo. Thanks so much to Steve Parrish who very kindly organised this for us. Thanks Steve! How exciting is that and as a mate commented yesterday, 'must be worth more now as James Toseland has sadly retired due to injury'.

I've been overwhelmed by the wonderful support, encouragement, wry amusement and bafflement across this amazing journey. Had another cheque in today and I'm delighted to say that we've now raised just over £7500.00. So very chuffed, if still bruised! I was asked today what my next challenge would be - there's many answers to that particular question! Suggestions....?

Also very excited that another signed item by a British enduro icon might be on the horizon, I was told when in the Pyrenees that one should really stand when uttering his name! More on that to come.....

Has a little outing on the GasGas this avo to celebrate!
