I’ve lined up some amazing goodies which you can win in a charity auction/raffle — tickets for which will be available on the night.
All proceeds from the raffle will be going to the brilliant charity Cyclist Fighting Cancer, which gives bikes, adapted trikes and tandems to children and young people whose lives have been affected by cancer.
You’ll be able to buy raffle tickets for any prize, which you then drop into the hat for the items which tickle your fancy... here’s the full list of the great prizes you could win:
— A beautiful Quarterre ’Hood’ bike wall-mount (a very special, one-off, black version)
— Lights from Knog
— A copy of the brilliant ‘Made in England‘ frame-building book
— Limited edition CycleLove musettes, specially crafted by Il Soigneur for the occasion
— An Ally Capellino ‘Tommy Dispatch‘ messenger bag
— CycleLove t-shirts and prints
— A DVD of Bill Cunningham New York (the documentary which inspired CycleLove)
— Customised leather toe straps courtesy of Major Taylor
— An Otto London poncho
— Caps, a t-shirt, sweater, lock holster and straps from Yorkshire’s Restrap
— Road Rags Holborn merino leggings with integrated skirt
— A Milltag Reflective Cap
— Treats from Saddle & Spoke and Rouleur Magazine
— A copy of the Bike V Design newspaper, designed by Six
