Waynio Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 hi all,Happy new year and hope everyone has a fantastic 2008.right, if you havent already seen. www.waynio.co.uk there is a deeply saddening story about a friend who has just had a cancer tumour removed from his back, this young man is called Ben Carlisle. he is been treated and is doing great.What i want?i want the support of as many riders, doesnt matter on age or quality of the rider. i want anyone and EVERYONE to attend. it is to help raise money for cancer research, i cant tell you any more details at current. as i have a meeting with Tyke Trial (which is bens local club and where he started competing) we are arranging a trial with a substantial difference and also more fun than you can shake a stick at!!!Venue is to be talked about and arranged. hopefully somewhere that will be able to hold lots of riders, also camping or accomodation very near or close.I think we all take life for granted and we never appreciate what others do to help us through our life. so i want you all to think about all the things you take for granted and then think what if, 1) you couldnt ride you bike again? what if you couldnt walk again? what if you couldnt ever see again? what if you lost a loved one and didnt get the chance to say goodbye?these are just some of the things over the last few weeks i have asked myself and started to think more before i take advantage of walking, driving, riding, seeing the beatiful views and scenery etc.i just want as much support as possible from as many of you as i can. im hoping to try and get people such as dougie lampkin, martyn ashton, kenny belaey, Marc Vinco and obviously other high profile UK riders etc.who would be interested? who is in support of it? any ideas and thought on it would be much appreciated.idea was, Team Trial (say3-6 riders per team) these can be your mates, or just friends and all get together and have a laugh aswell as a bit of a competition. we may take the word "competition" out of it though, as i dont want it to be "competative" to win, i want everyone to win and everyone to be proud of the support and efforts they have put it and can say they helped to donate to cancer research and such forth.Regards Waynio..........................Ps this is the young man who is recovering at the moment. he is no stranger to riding up north and is an inspiration to most, including myself.

Walleee Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 that wee tot?I wish I could attend, doubt it's possible unless some scottish are going and don't mind giving an irishman a lift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 i would love to go, but it will blatently be too far from portsmouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted January 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 we will try and arrange it so transport and accomodation is really close. it would be much better this way so that hopefully trials riders will club together and give each other lifts etc.then get as many people there as possible?????im sure a few scottish people wouldnt mind an irish man in with them, as long as the englishman, irishman and scottishman jokes are pretty funny Wayne.

Ryan. Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 me and a few mates will most likely be up for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted January 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 ye hopefully MORE than a months notice will be given for organisation of work, venue, travel, accomodation etc. making sure it doesnt clash with other events etc.just as an example of venue? Addingham moorside? if there was camping would people camp? or possibly stay in Skipton? Keighley? Silsden? in B&B's. there pretty cheap around here. and it gets everyone to a place that has brought up some of the BEST UK Trials stars, motorbikes and trials bikes alike. Dougie Lampkin, Chris Akrigg etc and is one of the BEST well known venues in the UK. it has something for everyone.The only other thing we was trying to do was find an "indoor venue" so that Ben could actually come and watch the event and see what WE ALL have done to support and help him Wayne.

MattB Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Would deffo train or drive up if there was some sort accomadation nearby.Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynio Posted January 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 the accomodation will be one thing that we consider to be a main objective. to make sure that it is accessible for people to get to and from etc. local transport.Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indoor would be brilliant in case the weather turns.We are hypothesising about a team already. Need to contact other riders though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
