Bring us your unwanted toy or old items

[Chris Willemse]

Hallo all fellow hubbers and cyclists. We at Chris Willemse cycles needs your help and support. We are planning to make many children hearts happy this year by donating what ever we can to them this Christmas. We ask you please to collect new and old toys, cycles, unwanted gifts , old clothing and anything that you think that will make a child happy.

 

Bring it or send it to Chris Willemse Cycles and we will make sure that it will get donated to these kids who normally do not get anything for Christmas.

 

We are also planning a short ride on Thursday 16th December from CWC. If the motorbikes riders can do it why not us?

 

I am looking forward to get your response and support on this gift day.

I have an old Fox hydration pack.

BTW thanx for my Camelbak Lobo got it yesterday.

Plenty people will be away from the 16th.

 

How about bringing it forward to the weekend before?

 

Make it a REALLY easy ride, and I should be able to organise a 7 year old Hubber-let too.

Chris, good on you for doing this. Toy Run Gauteng is including cyclists this year - so if we do a good job on saturday and you do a good job on the 16th then maybe next year Toy Run countrywide might do a cycling event - imagine how AWESOME that would be

[Chris Willemse]

Great. The ride will REALLY be an easy ride. The reason for the 16th is because it is a holiday and the roads will not be so busy. Come , we need your support on this. Bring that hydration pack. It does not matter what you bring.

 

We visit a area yesterday and it is so sad to see young children playing in the dust with nothing. Then only do we realize how fortunate we are.

ill be there,

[Chris Willemse]

Thanks. We had received our 1st two gifts. This is going to be awesome.Bring those unwanted gifts or go and spend a few bucks on a small present.

I am in on the ride. Do we bring our gifts before hand, or on the day of the ride? Will be visiting your shop later today for a few gifts for myself, ie. Lizzard Skins and more, and by participating in this awesome initiative I will alleviate some of the guilt for spending so much cash on my toys!

[Chris Willemse]

No problem. You can bring it on the day of the ride as well although we would like to have an idea of how many gifts we will have to make the children s hearts happy. See you later today

[Chris Willemse]

GREAT NEWS. We just had a certain wholesaler donating 5 kiddies cycles. He does not want to be named.

 

Thanks to Mr X

[Chris Willemse]

Thanks for everyone that has brought some toys in already and those that has promise to bring it.

We have just been offered plenty bags full of oranges by one of our clients. This is going to be a stunning day for many children and even the parents.

Chris, I'm so glad that it sounds like your ride is going to be succesful.

 

I'm very disappointed in the turnout up here and even more sad that we (the Toy Run) weren't able to collect enough gifts to meet all the requests we got

[Chris Willemse]

Hi Slowpoke. Do not be disappointing. Just start advertising it long before the ride next year.Lets hope that our one will get some support. How long was your ride? Our one will not be to long because we want some young kids to ride as well.

[slowpoke]

Chris, we did an easy 25km - a bit further than would be ok for little kids but easier than previous big hub rides have been. seems hubbers are losing their touch :-(
