From where I sit, you seem to be asking a lot--free bike, contacts, lodging, publicity--but offering....what? Nothing in particular. Maybe work on your approach a bit .

Just a thought.

I'd try a search for "sponsorship" on here, people have written stuff before about it.

Not being a cynic, I'll say go for it, but here's a couple of thoughts.

I found your Blogspot page (Google's great isn't it?). How to put this politely? Spelling's not your strongest point. It might be an idea to get someone to check it over before you post there. I know, I know, who wants a spelling and grammar nazi on their case? The thing is, it does still matter to plenty of people, and some of them will get put off (checks for spelling errors in the above). Enthusiasm's great, professionalism's better.

Oh and your Twitter page, you've got the wrong Boorman, although oddly the Boorman you've got is following the real Boorman, strange that.

Thanks for the replys guys, just had Discovery Channel on the phone..... in principal support already.

Spelling...... c'mon guys find something a little more negative. have you ever tried spelling anyfink on a blueberry keypad......new glasses now theres a good bit of advise.

USA Embassy London , IN, major m/cycle clothing manufacturer showing interest, 1 bike offer (but still open, really want a larger bike I am 6ft 4 and 20 stone)

Thanks anyway, will keep going despite all of above.
