Early-morning text messages are met with trepidation when bushfires are around, but the message from Kylie Connolly was on the other end of the spectrum. She asked if we’d be interested in helping organise a fundraiser in aid of those who suffered in the Rappville fires. She suggested an adventure poker run with a twist Holding Hands with Karen Ramsay.
The night was not only a success for the Rappville community, but lots of fun for everyone who attended.
As members of the Kyogle Dirt Bike Club, Greg and Kylie Connolly had ridden on private properties that had been devastated by the fires in the area, and a couple of people they knew had lost every-thing. Husband Dave and I jumped at the fundraising idea and that night we four met over dinner, came up with a plan, created posters and created an event. We posted on the Northern Rivers Adventure Bike Riders (NRABR) Facebook page and it was shared widely.
