UKMOC
M.A.D.
WEEKEND
17TH-18TH JUNE 2006
************************
Rides out, bike show, bands - Crimes of Passion and All Except, raffle, and plenty of beer!
Even free camping!
People on UKMOC have been saying that they want something big up North, well this is it!
The idea for this event has been in the pipeline for quite a while and has transformed from the idea of a basic meet and ride out into a full weekend with a difference.
The UKMOC M.A.D. Weekend will be held at Squire’s Café<--(link) about 15 miles east of Leeds, a great rural venue and easy to get to from just about anywhere.
The weekend will start with a rideout on Saturday afternoon followed by food, beer and 2 bands on Saturday night. On Sunday we’ll have a small bike show (for Monsters) with prizes and another short rideout. We’ll also be having a raffle – the prizes will depend on my blagging skills.
This event will be something a bit special, not just because it’s a 2 day-er but mainly because we want to make this a fund raising event for a children’s hospice in Wetherby. This is where M.A.D. comes into it. M.A.D stands for Make A Difference and is a concept which dazzi-b and myself have come up with in order to raise money.
The hospice – Martin House - is almost totally reliant on donations and they provide their much needed care and support for free. There's a link to their website ^^^^^^^^^ if you’d like to see what they do for yourselves. We feel that this is a very worthy cause and anything we can raise would be very much appreciated by them.
As far as I know, this will be the first club event dedicated to raising money for charity. If we can make a success of this weekend then it could be the start of an annual event with the proceeds going to a different good cause in the future.
I don’t like asking for money but you can’t raise owt without asking can you?
We’d like to ask you for a donation of £10 if you’re coming for the weekend or £5 if you come for one of the days.
Everything raised will go to Martin House and Alison Wragg will be coming to Squires on Sunday morning so we can present her with a cheque (hopefully a large one!)
It's NOT essential that you turn up on a Ducati, so please don't think you can't join in if don't have one...... Hell, you can even come in a car if you want to bring a non-biking partner or your bike's off the road or whatever
