Charity Ride-out

 

The early part of September the Triangle MCC have an annual motorcycle ride-out for different charities nominated by our members.

On previous rides funds have been raised for The Children's Wards at Ipswich Hospital and various other charities.  As this is open to non-members; all riders and passengers are welcome, with the Triangle club members taking on marshalling and route direction roles.

The route is usually around 50 miles in length travelling for the most part on interesting country roads and finishing usually at a point of interest with catering facilities, etc.

Riders group from 9am onwards to enable the first group to get away at 10:30.  Please come and support us and help us to make this a success.

Charity Ride-out 2007

On the 2nd September 2007 the club held its 5th annual charity ride-out.  The weather was good.  Starting from the Orwell Crossing Cafe/ Lorry Park and finishing with a barbeque at Bressingham Steam Museum, approx 160 riders accompanied by 2 police outriders left the lorry park in groups from 10.30 am, with club members acting as marshals and group leaders.  The route was approx 57 miles taking in all types of roads.

The two charities to benefit from the £953 raised this year are Heartbeat East Suffolk, and St John's Ambulance.  Our thanks go to all riders, individuals, and organisations who helped to make this event a success.
