Hi All, I know, it's that time again! But this year there's a twist! - LARD Racing are back and faster than ever, and introducing the new Elite Womens Race Team..*The Disc Brake Diva's!

What can we say, some of you have been so generous in the past it almost feels like we are taking advantage of your good natures, but when you think about the cause and how much of a difference a small donation from all of us can really make to children suffering with cancer in the UK right now, and the help that their families need, I'm sure you all agree there is nothing more worthy. Plus you get to witness us put ourselves through all sorts of pain and torture in return!

As most of you know, the CLIC24 is a 24Hour MTB endurance race. After a year off and with a podium finish the last time LARD raced we are going all out  for glory this year!

And this year sees the 1st outing for our new ladies squad, The Disc Brake Diva's. Not only is this the first team outing, but for 3 of the 4 members it will be their 1st ever MTB event, so they need as much motivation (read: Money!) as they can get to spur them on through the tough times!

If you can find a little something to sponsor us it would be so greatly appreciated, and may even be worth a few seconds quicker on a midnight lap when the spirits are flagging and the halucinations more vivid!...now for the official bit......

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: CLIC Sargent will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now if you can! It means so much to us all and all working to make kids lives with cancer a bit sunnier!

A thousand thanks, Rich, Paul, Dan and Matt of LARD!, and Gemma, Zoe, Ruth and Emma of the Disc Brake Diva's
