Yeah obviously same here but these guys are all great fellas and they want to make sure nobody thinks they were being misled.

I think they've been shocked by the demand to be honest.

Hey guys. Just to let you know the raffle is now sold out with £10k collected.

There's still 3 days to go for the draw so who knows how many he could've sold if they'd just let it run....?

I've bought tickets for everyone even if they said they weren't bothered and were just making a donation. If a ticket assigned to one of those people wins (includes myself btw) then maybe we can re-raffle it or get the bike on ebay to raise more to donate on behalf of Andeep.

I'll get a picture of our tickets and everyone's assigned numbers posted as soon as I've collected them. We have £400 worth in total so we have a chance.

I want everyone to have them in their name so that if we win and it gets donated back the right person gets the credit for their generosity.

The draw is on Monday at the Gurkha Kitchen in Nottingham (Andeep's restaurant). He's having a classic car show in his car park which had already been arranged prior to the disaster but is now going to help raise more money. If anybody wants to attend let me know and I'll give you details.

Funking hard for 480!! Me and Glen on that tiny little bike would be an impressive sight that's for sure!!!

Good luck everyone.

Btw, I don't want the bike. If in the unlikely event I bink it he can keep the bike, or do another raffle if he wants to raise more. Up to him basically.

Facebook link with the final score for the Nepal fundraiser:

They raised a total of £16k from the bike raffle and other events on the bank holiday which is an amazing effort from these guys.

Thank you to everyone who chipped in for some tickets on here. We didn't do any wins but I'm sure everyone is happy enough knowing that you've been able to help out with this worthy cause.

Thanks again!!

Matt
