If you were thinking of splashing some cash on those new forks or a posh set of wheels then think again, anything from this auction is a hundred times better and lets face it you will be helping a guy that helped you without you even knowing.

After his accident Micheal and his supporters, basically the whole bike world, have come together to work supporting him. The necessity of 24 hour care doesn’t come cheap but you can do your part to help him out.

Owning a piece of mtb history is something we all dream of and your chance to do just that in aid of the Ride for Michael initiative. Legends have come together and donated some amazing items to the auctions that finish this evening on eBay.

Greg Minnaar has donated a signed World Champs jersey from his title win in South Africa this year. Gee and Rachel Atherton with team mate Marc Beaumont have added an Atherton racing jersey and Ratboy has donated one of his Syndicate tops from the season.

Added to this Malcolm Fearon and Shaun Palmer have donated a signed photo that is the only shot to be used on the cover of Dirt twice. Pretty amazing bit of history here and well worth warming the credit card up for.
