Absolutely anyone. There is no application form or joining
fee, the individuals who become Lardies or honorary Lardies
have to be up for a laugh, not take themselves too seriously
and have a desire to help worthy causes.
The only fixed rule is that each Lardie gets allocated
a puerile nickname. Paul for example was Farmer Lardie
as he spoke with a Welsh accent and had fiery red cheeks
which looked as though he had spent 8 hours on a combine
getting the harvest in!
We
have "Double Decks Lardie". Dave once let out
he had been a DJ in Denmark. Another is Grandpa as he
looks 60 but is actually only 41. Our first female rider
is Barbie Lardie……we have Lazy Lardie, Slap
head Lardie… and Tub O'Lardie….you get the
idea!
We
have a blind Lardie, Hawkeye. Steve Cunningham currently
holds two world records as the fastest blind man to travel
on land and sea. At present he is also learning to fly,
although thankfully he will not get his pilots licence
by October so he won't be flying us out to Egypt!
