If you want inspiration

#1 Post by T.C. » Mon Oct 27, 2014 8:33 pm

Then can I suggest you spend 10 minutes watching and listening to Talan Skeels Piggins about his crash and how he got into and copes with racing.

It is a very humbling watch

It puts my miserable and pathetic disability into context, and should be an inspiration for all. He has my utmost respect and admiration and I am proud and honoured to be associated with him through my firm as his main team sponsor

Oh, and he will be on BT Sport at 8pm on Tuesday (28th)

Excellent watch makes you wish you were more involved in something worthwhile
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Probably the best way to contact him now is via his website at http://www.talanracing.co.uk/

There is a contact page there, and I am sure he will be happy to advise the best way to make a donation
