![]() Update on the Hospice Run. Alecia Karr, UKs No 1 Pink Tribute and local rock band Mean Bone will be doing a half hour stint each inbetween the U105 road show program. The ride out is on the weekend the G8 summit starts. So anywhere Belfast, Aldergrove to Enniskillen south will be choke a block with thousands of extra police brought in. So best bet is to support the ride out up to Glenariff and go on round the north coast for a quieter day.......simples |

Unfortunatly Lidls wont be able to supply the ride out with there free tea,coffee and bun stall this year as it has been left too short of notice to get it organised,so the lidls Area Manager Glenn Sinemon has kindly donated a case of Vodka and 2 cases of wine for the end of Ride out Ballot,which i thought was pretty decent of him.

Myself, Stevie and Shanksy did a 10 minute plug for the ride out today with Johnny Hero on U105. Good craic, really enjoyed it. Great that U105 giving us the free air time plus plugging throughout the day

Like to thank everyone who attended todays event and made it one to remember.
Great atmosphere created by having U105 road shore and live entertainment from Alecia Karr and Mean Bone entertaining the crowd. There was a great mix of folk about to support the Children's Hospice and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. The ride out went very smoothly with only a couple breakdowns and a great crowd returning to the Bowling club for the massive ballot draw. Alecia Karr once again sang a selection of Pink songs as a bonus before the ballot draw. The G8 weekend has put a lot of folk going out today as the coast road was a ghost road with no traffic at all.
So it was great to see so many bikers venture out to support the event. Despite the G8 disruption around Belfast just under 900 bikes turned up today. This number was massively increased by the townsfolk of the Carrick area coming to down to support the event with numbers of over 3000 around the car park area being given.
If we get the weather next year, with the setup this year it will be one day to look forward to.
