please change the colour of the type its very hard to read, yes sounds like a nice idea I myself had a support worker for a while when I was held at knife point by family members and robbed of everything so I know just how important the case workers can be to a victim. I myself would probably not be able to attend the ride out but would be more than happy to donate if you have any way of me doing that hunny .

Hi Guys,
I work for Victim Support in Greater Manchester.
Victim Support is a National Charity with Local Branches throughout the Country. We have a dedicated team of trained Volunteer Case Worker’s who support victims & witnesses of crime.
We have a fundraising target this year of £20,000 to support victims of Domestic Abuse within Greater Manchester & have been working hard to reach our target. With quiz nights, a music night & cake sales etc…
I thought it would be great if I could perhaps organise a charity “ride out” with each biker & pillion passenger making a donation to take part. I was thinking maybe £5-£10 each.
I was thinking that the ride could start & end at Rivington Barn, a popular Bikers meet in Horwich. Not sure about a route in between though? Maybe you guys could help me with that part?
Just throwing it out as an idea at the moment. Would anybody be interested in taking part?

Thanks guys. Just throwing it out there to see if I'm likely to get enough interest. Before I start to plan anything.

Right guys. So I've provisionally come up with an idea for the route. I was thinking... start at Rivington Barn, Horwich & ride upto Devils Bridge, Kirby Lonsdale & ride back which I think would be a total of about 120 miles. What do you think? Is that ok or too far? Provisional date is also Sunday 21st September.

Hun, best way of getting people to see this now date sorted and on events page is to open a thread on the events n ride out thread and then keep bumping it up to keep people seeing it

Best putting date in title to

Hope that helps
