The Moto Guzzi Club GB raises money for charities every year.
Some of the events are organised locally by the branches. Examples of this are the annual Easter Egg run and usually a Christmas event. Details of such runs for 2008 can be found on the events pages, where they are published as and when they are announced.
Another donation to a local charity is made every year alongside our prize presentations at the V-Twin Rally.
For 2008 Sue Nock, our PRO has made plans in which everyone can get involved very easily and the proceeds will go to Spinal Research.
Guzzi ride Out comprises of a fundraising packs containing goodies and information, a competition and an invitation to raise further funds in any way you think suitable. The competition and further fundraising is not mandatory, but we think that it is an added incentive to assist a charity that helps develop new treatment to repair the spinal cords of people who have been paralysed.
The competition consists of a list of landmarks all over the UK, with an allocation of points for each and the challenge is to gain as many points as you can by visiting them and taking a photo as proof. The exact rules and list of landmarks are included in the fundraising pack, which you can obtain for £10.- ,which will go directly to the Spinal Research charity. To make things even easier and more interesting for anyone wishing to take part you can enter the competition either as an individual or as a member of a branch or both.
For more details see our Guzzi ride Out pages.
2006 was the year the Moto Guzzi Club GB celebrated it's 30th anniversary, which is why Sue our PRO decided to organise something a little special for charity.
The result was Guzzi Birds do GB, a group of six women riding their motorcycles around the UK and Ireland raising money for the Orchid Cancer Appeal, a prostate and testicular cancer charity.
