Short Summary

BECAUSE OF DEMAND WE ARE CONTUINING THE CAMPAIGN INTO PHASE 3

Just a quickie before we start - what is crowd funding? What am I getting involved in?

We all understand paying for concert tickets months before the concert is on. We pay for flights in advance to secure a seat.

We're doing just that –  pre-paying for something in advance so we can see it before anyone else, like pre ordering a DVD, only this is online. Bigger Picture have a long track record of delivering high quality films.  I hope this explains this new approach. 

J L Matthews Short Summary

This is an online TV show for motorcyclists made by motorcyclists, broadcast on our own dedicated channel. 

Team leader and former Champion Jamie Whitham is a mechanical engineer with his own workshop & everything needed to fix machines. Together with his racing pal Jenny Tinmouth and friends, they do fun stuff on bikes on the cheap.

The idea is to go and have fun entering competitions or doing exciting and interesting things, spending the least amount possible.

We will get up to all sorts, traveling around, doing some crazy and challenging stuff, maybe set a new intriguing record? Get dirty, a few bruises, lots of laughter.

We film the whole thing from start to finish for your entertainment.


Maybe you have some ideas? Please TELL US! We want to know and you can be part of the process!

What We Need & What You Get

We already raised almost £5000 - which is brilliant! But it is nowhwere near enough which is why we need your help.

We have already started making the show as you can see and we have a considerable following already on twitter and facebook [https://www.facebook.com/pages/Speed-on-a-Shoes...]

With the small amount of money we have raised we have almost edited three sections already but we need more support. What we have found is a small amount of support is coming in all the time so we are going to keep it going like this.


If we don't make our goal, and I very much doubt that, we will do what we can with what we raised. We believe we will easily make this target and most likely exceed it so that we can do the next sections.

Risks & Challenges

One of the problems is finding the right machine, which can be tricky, however we have already as you can see in the taster found and got a bike going. That bike cost just £90! [Jamie said it was £90 too much!] Also we can just get on and do things to as you will see if you look at the latest episode on www.speedonashoestring.com.

Other Ways You Can Help

Also maybe you have some ideas of what bikes or machines we should be looking to find and why - AND what to do on them - we'd like to hear from you please. Be realistic though - remember its about doing it on the cheap! So go on, join us! It's only a few quid. And if you want more fun, why not come to the launch party?!
