01.12.2008 The Steve and Rick Fund Auction
The organisers of the “Steve and Rick Fund” Auction are delighted
with the response. Bidding finished at various times on Friday 21st and
Saturday 22nd November. The interest in the auction and the staggering number
of bids to date has led to further donations of items bringing the total up to 70+.
Added to the list were signed photos of MGP winners, the Kneen brothers along
with John McGuinness, 15 times World Champion Giacomo Agostini and 50cc
World Champion Jan De Vries. There were two official Renault F1 Team
items signed by double World Champion Fernando Alonso and Nelson Piquet
Jnr. Two more helmets were added to the list, these worn by World Champions
Tim Reeves and Patrick Farrance in the final British and World Championship
events of 2008. All memorabilia associated with 1980 World Sidecar Champion
Jock Taylor is eagerly sought after, and the organisers are grateful to Jock's
niece, Yvonne for donating Jock's trophy from the international race at
Donington in 1980. The fundraising is up to around the 9K mark.
