A Few Numbers and a Final Thank You

Thanks to all of you who supported the event with all donations sent in here are a few numbers:-

We raised £1553.77 in total for Macmillan

We were in the top 5% of monies raised through the Just Giving web page in May

We had 35 individuals make a donation

We had 30 ribs participate

I totaled 75nm but did not go into Holyhead

I used 63 litres of petrol with a 140hp Suzuki

The Gazelle sold more pints than usual for a Saturday afternoon

I had one big smile on my face as we did 35kn across Red Wharf Bay

We have one fantastic ribbing area around the Anglesey coast that's for sure

Thanks to you all for the fantastic support and hopefully I will try and run something similar again next May but with a slightly different theme! Have a great summer.

Nick

The Gazelle sold all its Peroni that day! We drank it dry.

(I got a free double single malt out of it later that night)
