GT Rider will be a headline sponsor @ 25,000 baht for the Chiang Mai ToyRide. If anyone wants to help defray the costs you are welcome to assist. Franz has already chipped in 5,000 baht.

For some of you wealthier GT Riders with companies, who feel the 25,000 baht is too high, there is a 2nd tier sponsorship level of 5,000 baht (US$150). This qualifies you as a major sponsor. As a major sponsor you are entitled to

• An advertising box and link on the homepage of the website
• A prominent listing on the website’s sponsors page
• A position on the back of the event T- shirt
• A logo on the event banner
• A discount on a booth at the event party

Now 5,000 baht is not a lot of money. Some of you would easily spend this in a night out on the town, so how about diverting a small amount of funds to supporting the Chiang Mai ToyRide & putting smiles of faces of children in need? It’s a very worthy cause & you will be helping promote a positive image of motorcycling in the Kingdom.

Any contributions / support you can provide is welcome.

Guilty !!

My dues are not yet in. I committed 5000.
On the road but hope to make the transfer in time. In any event you can count the money in.
Thought the event is next year.

A special "Thank You" to Tom Forde, ChiangMaiRich and Ray23 for your generous contributions given to the ToyRide during Chiang Mai Bike Week.

Also to "Max", a guy who just walked up to me and donated 5,000baht! I invited him to join the GT-Rider board and hopefully we will soon know his full name and he will join us on some of our rides.

Thanks to all! :D

I'll be in town then so count me in.
Does a single post in the forum qualify me to ride with the GT Riders? 8)
All I gotta do now is find me a bike.
