🚐 VAN WANTED – CAN ANYONE HELP THE RIDE OUT TEAM? 🏍️💛🖤
Bit of an appeal to the biking community!
We’re currently hunting for a van for Lincs & Notts Ride Out, and finding the right one within our budget is proving harder than expected.
We’re ideally looking for:
🔸 Transit-style / crew van
🔸 Minimum 5 seats – this is important
🔸 Tow bar fitted, or suitable for having one fitted
🔸 Enough load space behind the seats for our event equipment
🔸 Mechanically sound and capable of doing some miles
🔸 Doesn’t need to be pretty – we can sort cosmetics!
The van will become the Ride Out support vehicle and will be used for transporting gazebos, tables, signs, merchandise, equipment and everything else that goes into running our events. It'll also eventually be used for towing our event trailer.
And just to be completely clear – we are NOT expecting someone to give us a van for free! 😂
We have a budget and we're looking to buy one. We're simply hoping that somebody in the biking community, or perhaps a local garage/dealer/business, might know of something suitable before we keep trawling Marketplace and Auto Trader into the early hours! 🤦♂️😂
It doesn't have to be a Transit specifically – Vivaro, Trafic, Primastar, Transporter, Dispatch, Expert, Transit Custom etc are all possibilities.
Once we've got one, the plan is eventually to get it properly branded in the black and yellow Lincs & Notts Ride Out colours, so it'll become a big part of what we're building going forward. 💛🖤
If you've got something suitable, know somebody selling one, or you're a local business that might be able to help us find one at a sensible price, please drop us a message.
Please share as well – the right van might be sitting on someone's driveway right now!
