Memorial Ride 2023

We had a fantastic turnout for this years Memorial ride, around 80 bikes took part. It’s a day for us all to get together and remember those members who we have sadly lost.

Alan Wright led this years ride in remembrance of his late wife Christine and we raised substantial funds for the North East Air Ambulance.

An excellent day, weather was great and the route was fantastic.

On return to the dealership we had reading by Cross Rob and the listing of the names of members passed. This was followed by a minutes noisy revving of all the bikes!

Julie Howell said – Great to have been a part of a very special day…very moving and quite emotional at times….been a while but well worth a visit to see so many people give their time to remember others ❤️‍🩹

Jonnie Smith says of the day – Fantastic ride out today made better with it being my birthday even if I didn’t get the bumps or any cake but well done to all concerned with organising it for a fantastic cause 🙌

We also got messaged by a non member. Simon Field mentions – Had a message through the Geordie HOG messenger from someone who saw us out today…..
Hi there, not sure if this is the right page, but I followed a lot of Geordie Chapter guys today from Blanchland to just past Shotley Bridge and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Just wanted to commend you all.
Nice to have members of the public noting how well we act when out as a group. Well done all.

 

 

 

Busy week last week.

Hi All,

Last week was a very busy week for the Chapter. There were cheque deliveries for 4 charities.

First off, the BoB ride for Chrysalis. Thanks to the BoB riders and Geordie Chapter members who could make it on the day, we finally managed to deliver the £11,000 raised by the Chapter along with friends and families and the support from other HoG chapter friends we made a group of volunteers very Happy. This money will go a long way in helping this charity over the next twelve months. We look forward to seeing you next year on an open day where hopefully we can support you once again. Well done to all at the Chrysalis Club for your help making life a little easier for the sufferers of Dementia 💜

 

Secondly the annual ABC ride. On A cold and very wet Friday the Chapter delivered the Cheques for the amounts raised on this years ABC run , well done to those who participated on the day and hats off to those who attended today .. someone said a wet day in the saddle is still better than a day at work! Cheques  were delivered to RAF Boulmer, Albemarle barracks and the Life Brigade.
