Cycling New Zealand for Polio Plus

On Friday (yesterday) I attended an early morning meeting with the organisers of the Polio fund raiser. Work is progressing on promotion, trying to find suitable sponsors and to ensure web sites and the like are all ready to go.  Can you help with sposoring?
The challenge for every Club in New Zealand is to take the 13.5 kilometers assigned to them and to raise funds and raise awareness in their community. Not many Clubs will be able to view them as they only pass through our District via Wairarapa and the Hutt Valley - hitting Wellington 21 December.

Rotorua Rotary Club has already pledged $100/km = a total of $1,340!!
They have certainly set a good benchmark for other Clubs to match!
