For the last 8 months, I've been organising a massive joy-ride to raise money for a crisis centre here, run by the Salvos. It's sapped all my energy & most of my time, particularly in the last couple of months. It's finally happening this Sunday & I can't wait for it to be over.

Basically, riders come, volunteering their time, bikes & fuel and the public pay a fee to play pillion on whatever bike (or rider) they like for a police escorted ride in a group.

Last year was the first one & we had about 100 bikes. It went really well & judging by the feedback, this one will be bigger & better (except hopefully this year, that learner guy on the CBR250 won't drop his bike downhill & knock a brand new Harley over... ).

So here's hoping it all goes smoothly. I tell you what though, planning a wedding is a cinch!

Excellent VTRgirl I'm well impressed

Good work..Organizing stuff is difficult, hope they appreciate it

Hi Norma Here

Keep up the good work, girl. Doing work for charity can be demanding and exhausting, something the public don'e realise.

You are a wee gem as one of the orginisers, as they have to put 200% in, making it more tiring.

But its all worth while in the end.

Stupid comment, but I hope you get a really good day for it and all goes well. All the best.

Thanks guys. It really has been a huge effort, and just to top off the stress levels, I finally quit my job yesterday. Two weeks to go! Wheeee.

Anyway, I've gone & slept funny or something & my neck is totally cactus (I'm hoping, just temporarily...), so that will add a lovely twist to my day tomorrow (literally ).

Thanks for the encouragement! It's all in God's hands now...
