I have just read an article on motoverte.com ( please click translate on your explorer to read all details )
https://moto-station.com/moto-verte/enduro/encheres-en-soutien-a-mathias-bellino-ca-commence/409558
So this is a thread I wish it could make the home page and/or get a more global traction (journalists here thanks in advance to share!) ; the fundraising is for a great cause while at the same time it is a unique opportunity to increase your own gear collection.
Indeed I am sad to say that Mathia Bellino, enduro world champion 2016, a former french hope in MX and a newly rallye rider got badly hurt, losing the usage of his legs... Similarly to Jessie Nelson, when it happens the rider and the family also discover the cost of the multiple therapies, possibly the cost to transform a house to access it, etc etc ...
To see his full palmares, bio, etc please look at https://mathiasbellino.com/palmares/ or on google/youtube.
The list of riders who gave their gear is incredible, so thanks to them :
Sebastien Loeb, Stephane Peterhansel. Marc Marquez, Johnny Aubert, Fred Bolley, Thomas Chareyre, Christophe Nambotin, Cyril Després, Mickaël Pichon, Glenn Coldenhoff, Tonio Cairoli, Jason Anderson, Jonny Walker, Pela Renet, Marvin Musquin, Steve Holcombe, Kiara Fontanesi, Romain Fèbvre, Jordi Tixier, Graham Jarvis, Zach Osborne, etc etc etc.
The auction is ending on the 15th of december. I have contacted him and he is glad to have more exposure so he is fully ok to ship the gear internationally, to answer questions or just to receive any kind message.
Just check the list of gear as posted by Rangot, it is amazing.

I will send a PM to DC, Matthes, Weege, JT$ too.
Rangot, please could you also make a more flahsy title, like « Unique opportunity to help a rider, AMAZING GEAR CHARITY »
GuyB, ML, please, is it also possible to make something on the homepage like for Weston Peick or Jessie Nelson ?
Thanks a lot !
