jimsoon Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 did anyone else attend, I was there along with loads of others, I realize there was another event in Blackpool, this was on the MCN website though.There was loads of bikes out, we rode from skipton - Burnley, and stopped for 1/2 hour, then had a police escort through burnley to another stop, people were lined on the streets clapping and cheering as about 500 bikes went by!A fantastic day (relatively speaking, in the circumstances and all) and I'm sure plenty of money was raised for the North West Air Ambulance. 1st stophttp://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n9/minston2/Photo0009.jpghttp://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n9/minston2/Photo0010.jpglast stophttp://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2704/85/5/560907933/n560907933_1797444_6623709.jpg Quote

jimsoon Posted April 23, 2009 Author Posted April 23, 2009 sorry, he was a young lad from Burnley, who died last year after crashing his bike. He died just before I did my A2, he had done his at the same place as me. the ride out was to raise money for the North West Air Ambulancethis was the ad on MCN...http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/ ...

Guest Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 Ah.. popular guy be looks of it How much was raised? Quote
jimsoon Posted April 24, 2009 Author Posted April 24, 2009 I actually have no idea how much was raised, it was £1 to ride, but that was minimum contribution, i would imagine it was a fair bit, like £1000+ but really haven't a clue, i'll try and find out. Quote
