The Plymouth Mega-Ride is now the UK's largest charity motorcycle ride out with an estimated of 5,000 motorcyclists taking part in 2007, and this didn't include the pillion passengers or the vast number of spectators that showed up on the day.  Starting at Lee Mill Industrial Estate at 10am on Sunday 15th June 2008, the bikers will ride up to Marley Head, back into town and up onto Plymouth Hoe.  Waiting for the bikers at the Hoe are food stands, live bands, motorcycle stands, and much more, not to mention all the various types of motorcycle all parked up just waiting to be admired.  There's even something for the kids!  A £2 charity donation will be collected from all motorcyclists at Lee Mill in exchange for the 2008 Mega-Ride badge.

This year will see the 14th Mega-Ride and with a new improved charity voting campaign we are hoping you will help us to smash the total collected on the 2007 Mega-Ride.  The top two charities, as voted for by you, will recieve 50% each of ALL profits raised on the day.

The 2 winning charities for 2007 were:

JEREMIAHS JOURNEY

Now onto the all important figures detailing how much was raised for the 2007 winning charities.  The grand figure raised in 2007 was £11,185.86.  Of course from this figure there were some deductions to be made.  After all the bills had been paid the total figure donated was £8,123.29 - this means Jeremiahs Journey and the National Childrens Home each received £4,061.65.  Please please please help us to raise even more this year.  If you would like a breakdown of the 2007 Mega-Ride expenses please click here and you will be able to find the costs involved with the 2007 Mega-Ride.
