Firstly, if this is in the wrong place then please move it. My brother and I were massively into mountain biking about 20 years ago but I slowly drifted away from it. My brother never had a driving licence so relied on his bikes to get him back and to to work and spent a small fortune on them, from Cannondales to Coves to On-Ones, no expense was spared. Then he was diagnosed with a brain tumour so one of the first things to go were his beloved bikes. Sadly he passed away this February, spending his last days in the amazing care of Nightingale House Hospice in Wrexham. These guys were amazing to my family and friends but they rely heavily on public donations and fund-raising events. Me and a friend recently completed a sponsored bike ride to raise money for them. And this leads to this auction on ebay, arranged by Becky Sands of One Giant Leap downhill course in Llangollen. If you could just pop along to the site and have a look that would be great, even if you don't bid, please pass on this message, cheers. I have been in touch about the missing photo so hopefully it should be sorted.

Sorry for you and your families loss.
Good luck with the auction.
Forgot to add that 100% of any money raised will be going to the hospice and Becky will be giving a membership to the lucky winner.
