Shane
Says No Thanks
(Posted

Although the story of Shane's crash during a demonstration
ride at the Scottish Motor Show has been widely reported, there seems
to be no mention of Shane's decision to turn down an offer of funds
towards the repair bill for the bike.
Before the start of the main event at Tiger Tiger on
Sunday night, the STARs committee made the offer of a contribution
towards repair costs from their funds given that Shane had damaged
his bike doing the event for them.
Shane thanked them for their thought but ripped up the
cheque Derek presented him with.
In his time at Glasgow, Shane has always been very supportive
of the promotional side of things and has always been keen to help
STARs events. This latest gesture surely highlights again what a great
asset Shane is as Glasgow Captain and once again makes a mockery of
the 'money grabbing' claims often made by other teams supporters.
Nice one Shane.
