Now I hope this is OK in here. This is all about a charity.
The charity is called The Bike Experience. In short, there all about getting disabled riders (disabled from the chest down) back on a bike for a day with some track time!
Its been going for 2 years I believe now, and were trying to get support and more publicity! We only have a FB page atm, but a website is being built as we speak.
All I'm asking is for you to "Like" the page, Heck even have a read
The Happiness it beings back to the people that ride the bikes after they where told they couldn't any more..

Please have a look and even better if you would "Like" it!
Guys PLEASE like this, we need as much publicity as we can get. This is the main bumpf and what its all about. This also explains why its different to the other motorbike charities...
The Bike Experience is unique in that TBE offers facilities, bikes and training for disabled riders to experience riding in an off road environment. I am no expert on what NADB have to offer as I have had no connection with them although I am fairly sure that they do not offer any such experience. I assume that they look after disabled riders in other ways such as guidance on bike adaptions for road use etc. Where disability is such that road use is never going to be an option, or is not the prefered option, The Bike Experience can provide the support and education to teach disabled riders how to overcome mental and physical barriers to such a level that they can then move on and buy their own bikes, make their own adaptions and attend track days with friends and family. Effectively TBE is a school offering support and assistance from Spinal Unit right through to Track Days. After completion of all levels inside The Bike Experience riders are encouraged to join Club TBE (a new up and coming club) where they can be part of the TBE community organising their own social meets and track days. The Club TBE will be open to all and anyone connected with The Bike Experience. Later this year we will see the launch of the Club TBE forum which we will be the hub for the clubs activities and where track events can be arranged.
SO yeah, Please "like" the link and if you want to get involved feel free to send a message to the Team TBE on FB
Thanks for your time guys and gals!!
