The total tonight is £1055. Fabulous effort folks :clap:

Today I also ordered a VTR wreath for the funeral.

The girl that is doing it was asked to do one for NW Bikers at cost price and she is doing the same for us.

It isn't going to be anything fancy just the letters VTR done in red, white and blue. I hope this meets with everyone's approval.

I have asked the florist to send me a picture when she has made it.

You might want to wait till the stickers start being sold mate and you could contribute that way.

The money raised so far was being presented to the family today.

Keep an eye out for MacV2 posting about them.

Here was the sticker poll thread

Daz from NWBikers posted this on their forum. Also below is a picture of the presentation.





We have raised a little over £2160 for Cath and the kids its amazing that both forums have helped them out. As we all know they will have quite a few bills to pay with very little and I've no idea what funerals cost but I'm sure it will help.

We've kept some back to cover costs for 2 wreaths from both forums and to pay to get the car back on the road.

I received this message from them

Please thank everyone from us I was speechless for the first time ever It means so much to us all we can't thank you enough hope everyone has a safe journey love catherine and family x
