So here's an update. The ride was on Sunday. We had 47 bikes with 49 riders total. Our group raised about 7.5K. Globally there were over 93K riders and collectively over 4.5 million was raised.
Thanks to the generosity of the VN.
I've posted some pics and a video of the bikes over on the FB page linked in the thread. Here's one of me and one of the group (more kilts than I expected but you can only see a couple in the photo).
Cheers!
