Thread: Charity ride

Just wondering if JSW or anyone here in Perth does a charity ride annually?

Something like the one the motorcyclists do each year where they travel down the freeway and deliver toys etc for children, or perhaps even a ride where you take the kids along for a joy ride?

I've searched the forum but couldn't find anything. If there isn't one currently held, is this something that is perhaps in the pipeline.....or is there too much red tape and insurance requirements stopping this from coming to fruition?

Cheers

Luke

I would love to organise an event that gave riders an opportunity to take someone who is less fortunate on a fun ride. As you rightly point out insurance liability tends to be the greatest barrier. That is not to say its impossible, just requires more people with more time to be involved.

Cheers for the info.

Fingers crossed there's an event that gives riders the opportunity to take those less fortunate then us out for a ride - that would be a awesome
