“It’s been a long and successful partnership,” said John Finn,<br />

Fleet & Procurement Director at Bibby, “and we now enjoy a<br />

level of support from <strong>MAN</strong> that has developed into an ultraefficient<br />

operation tailored to our very specific needs. We run<br />

a nationwide fleet, and <strong>MAN</strong> mirrors that operation with its<br />

own network.<br />

<strong>In</strong> our 20th Anniversary year, <strong>MAN</strong> Truck & Bus UK is<br />

holding a charity Cycle Ride on Saturday June 23rd. As well<br />

as having fun and getting fit, we are out to raise money for<br />

our charity partner, Transaid. <strong>MAN</strong> has supported Transaid<br />

for over 10 years now, and our aim in 2012 is to raise<br />

some £60,000 for <strong>the</strong>m. All our customers are<br />

very welcome to join with our <strong>MAN</strong> staff,<br />

network members, friends and families. The<br />

Ride, for cyclists of all abilities, will take<br />

place from eight <strong>MAN</strong> centres around <strong>the</strong><br />

UK: Belfast, Cardiff, Enfield, Glasgow,<br />

Nuneaton, Preston, Stockton and Swindon.<br />

There is a website with more information,<br />

including entry forms and participant packs, at:<br />

www.20yearcycleride.man.co.uk<br />

As well as <strong>the</strong> Cycle Ride, commemorative wrist bands will<br />

be on sale at every <strong>MAN</strong> dealership. PLUS… visitors to our<br />

stand at <strong>the</strong> CV Show, or our Swindon offices, can buy a<br />

raffle ticket to WIN a <strong>top</strong>-of-<strong>the</strong> range <strong>MAN</strong> mountain bike.<br />

Every penny we collect, wherever we collect it, will go to<br />

support Transaid and its truly worthwhile work.
