Dinner planned for injured mountain biker

Friends of a Nanaimo mountain biker who broke his neck while riding
trails in Kamloops recently are planning a fundraiser to help him out.

Peter Isherwood, 34, is recovering from his injuries in the G.F.
Strong Rehabilitation Centre in Vancouver, where he is fighting to
regain mobility in his arms and legs.

His rehabilitation will likely take at least six months or longer and
his friends and family hope to raise enough money to ensure Isherwood
does not worry about finances while he recovers. His common-law
partner, T.J. Bickerton, has moved to Vancouver to be with him
throughout the rehabilitation process.

A fundraising dinner takes place at Simonholt Food and Drink on
Applecross Road on Wednesday June 8 starting at 5 p.m.

There will be a silent auction, with everything from a $3,300 bike to
CDs, and two dinner options: a beer and burger for $30 or steak and
wine for $50.

For more information, please go to the What's Happening With Pete
Facebook page.

A donation account has also been set up for Isherwood through TD
Canada Trust, account #9228-6325326.
