Doobs Warriors

Raised: $13,774.00

RAISED: $13,774.00 OUR GOAL: $10,000.00

Last updated: March 29thThe 2012 Report

The ride is done and dusted for 2012.  Here is the report:

Best Cycling Effort goes to Sophia who entered the 15k ride and then calmly did the 46k ride.  Legendary.

Worst Cycling Effort - Adrian, who was in KL at the time, like that's an excuse. 

Alpha Male Award to Johno, Greg and Sime who rode in, did the MS ride as a breather and then sprinted home for about an 80k ride.  Worst was the fact that every time I saw them they looked like they hadn't drawn breath in anger.

Most Reluctant to be Photographed - Chris. 

Best hairdo under a cycling helmet - Georgia.  Obviously.

Most Accident Prone - mmmm let me think, Alicia followed closely by Sasha and Lynsey (I've asked for the official photos - Johno you may be in trouble).

Best Team Man - Rod, always available, always helping, the spiritual leader of the team. 

Best cycling off the wheel - Shana pulling away from Charlie.

Best balancing act of a very expensive cycle - Derek (momentarily). 

Best finish - Daniel's "breasting of the tape" - he called it something else of course.  Followed by Mark for finishing with us (hopefully a habit).

Quiet Achiever Award - Adam, who seemed to stay with the Alpha Males although I can't comment as I was bringing up the rear.

Grand Members - Sophia, Johno and Rod.

$500 Members - Greg, Chris, Derek, Adam, Sime, Cait, Adrian and Dan.

So it's going to be a big dinner!

There were 243 individual donations from $2 to $660.  The average donation was $55.37.  Please make a point of sending your donors a thank you email with the group photo (which you should all be able to access through supersportimages.com.au).  If not email me and I will send it to you.

I look forward to you ALL riding again next year.  Please remember the solemn blood oath promise you made to me to recruit one more member to the ride. 

We might have come eighth but that is a damn sight better than GWS will do this year (also their first season) and I hope you all look forward to climbing the ladder.  I will send you all one final SMS to read this and then I will drift quietly off into the sunset. 

It was a pleasure, fellow Warriors.  Doobs would have been chuffed!

Okay folks last big push to get to $10,000 which would be legendary.

 

Last updated: March 16thOne last push!!!!

Folks - we cracked our stretch target with ease so I am setting the bar even higher.  I went through all my contacts on LinkedIn and sent them an email and even though it was the second email I had sent them all still raised another $300.  Sometime people want to donate but life gets in the way of that plan so don't give up and don't feel bad about nagging.  It's for a great cause.  Looks like this dinner party is expanding which is great - I am ready to cook you the best home dinner party you've ever had.  

Cheers Barrie 

Last updated: March 15thAnother Milestone Cracked!

We have made our third fundraising goal of $8,045 and are now pushing towards $8,450.  Congrats to all fundraisers!!!  Let's bring this home strongly....

Last updated: November 20thIn Memory of Doobs

My sister Doobs passed away on the 18th of April 2011.  She was 45 years young.

She had MS since she was in her early twenties and died of complications caused by this insidious disease.

Please JOIN me on the ride. 

Please DONATE by clicking on the button to the right and help MS Australia support all people affected by multiple sclerosis.

 

Thanks and regards
