 GREAT YORKSHIRE BIKE RIDE PRESENTATIONS - 12th NOVEMBER 2006

A full house at the Ramada Jarvis Hotel, Wetherby, hosted by the Event Organiser, John Taylorson MBE, attended the presentation evening, which closed another record year for the Bike Ride, and it's recipient charities. Those present also saw the first viewing of the GYBR DVD from Mark Smith Media which was very well received by all.

Prizes were also awarded to our top donating individual riders and teams.

The sponsorship total at that date was a new record total of £119,181. The organisers are confident that, with further late donations, the event will easily exceed £120k. At the presentation date 1,121 riders out of the 1,581 starters had made a donation to the sponsorship total.

As ever, there were some great team, junior and individual sponsor money totals, which are listed below.

See Photo Gallery at bottom of page.

Steven Webb and Paul Jackson of Premier Farnell, and Peter Wilson of Moores Furniture Group who represented the main sponsor companies presented the rider prizes and charity cheques.
