I got about the same number of cycles through Reece cycles in B'ham, for a special needs kids school I do work for, but the chap who helped me there has moved on.

Where are you?

If you are anywhere near the midlands then I'd suggest giving Nigel at John Atkins cycles in Leamington Spa a call, he helps me out loads with big orders like this and he may be able to help you too.

Put together a business plan and approach local companies to raise some funds. Then approach some suppliers (poss Isla Rowentree at Isla Bikes) to negotiate a deal. Isla used to build my track frames and might be willing to help.
