Own a classic, help the cause

Neil and mum with the iconic plates Fancy owning a classic piece of multisport memorabilia? The Coast to Coast is of course THE iconic race and THE number plate of choice for any multisporter would have to be “C TO C”. For many years this number plate has been the property of multisport guru Neil Gellatly. But now it could be yours, and by buying it you would be helping the 10,000 New Zealanders who are facing their own endurance challenge – the battle against leukaemia.

Neil’s own mum has been fighting this cruel illness for many months, so when he heard about the Mizone 7in7 Challenge he kindly offered his treasured number plates for auction. The money paid for these plates by the winning bidder – EVERY CENT OF IT – will go straight to the Leukaemia & Blood Foundation to help their amazing Patient Support Services unit.

The auction is being run on the Sportzhub Discussion Forum – check out http://www.sportzhub.com/site/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=32 to see where it’s at and make an offer. The plates will be sold to the person holding the highest bid on December 5^th at 6pm. This is the time I expect to cross the finish line at the Kepler Challenge and complete the 360km epic run.
