BLESMA BIKE RUN

Post by MOGGY » Sat Jan 21, 2012 3:36 pm

Anyone interested in a bike run from Holy Head to ACE Cafe and Marble Arch on the old A5 in September?

You can join the run anywhere down the A5 or join us when we stop on the way.

Will be going for a Sunday that slots in with ACE Cafe

Talking to BLESMA and ACE Cafe at the moment.

BLESMA (British Limbless Ex Service Men's Association) and their dependants and widows.

Help For Heroes is great, we collected nearly £18,000 for them on the Mad Moped Challange last year

but, BLESMA & the dependants and widows need some.

Hi. I'd be up for that ride. I live in Hudds, so thinking of biking over to the start at Hollyhead and finding my own way home in stages. Is this an MT ride or could I use one of my other bikes ? I suspect it's MT as the cause seems fitting for the trusty ( ! ) MT. Whats the route milage and timing ? what's the plan for when we finish - need to plan where I stay after we finish and set up a route back up to Yorkshire.

The run is 265 miles from Holy Head to Marble Aech (entire lenght of the old A5).

Start at about 7:30 in Holy Head. The Hollys Transport Cafe near Cannock may be a stop.

Im going to ride or drive the route soon and find Cafe's and petrol stops.

I will give an approximate time for all stops.

It would be great to see lots of folks doing the entire run but, If BLESMA get a minimum entrance fee of £10. You can start and finish where you like.


I expect some may just turn up at the ACE Cafe

Bikes, anything on 2 or 3 wheels. Morgans, plastic pigs and Bond Bugs + any disabled vehicle of any type most welcome or any BLESMA member getting a lift.

And a brace on MT's would be very very nice.

Accommodation, and way home its down to you. There may be other MT owners you could get together with.

I will be leaving my Facebook open for people to share lifts and accommodation on

Me and my MT will do the entire run. I'll come over the night before and set off the next day with you lot. I'll sponsor myself via my business. Might be joined by my girlfriend on her scoot or new GN125.

Please let me know when you want some cash for the entry ticket and the dates etc. I'll book some accommodation and plan a return route !

Warm Regards
