Daisychain Run 2004
SUNDAY 9TH MAY
IN MEMORY OF NEVILLE MOGER
Now in its thirteenth year, the annual Daisychain motorcycle run is due
to ride out through the New Forest on Sunday 9th May.
This years run will as ever be held for the Wessex Cancer Trust. This
years run will also be held in Memory of Neville Moger, who was killed
in a helicopter crash in December. Neville's three children were orphaned
as a result of the accident, after losing their mother to leukaemia two
years ago. The boys had already asked for donations to the Daisychain
run in lieu of flowers at their fathers funeral. They will this year be
leading the rideout of hopefully thousands of motorcycles with their uncle
Glenn. The family have been supporting the event since its start in 1991.
They hope that this year will be again a success and held raise even more
for the WCT.
At the Start of this years event, those taking part will also be able
to see a cheque handover. Last years run and treasure hunt raised a staggering
£10,500.
Organiser Gilly Jones said "I was amazed by how many people took
part in last years event, with pouring rain, I thought we would have our
first bad year. But I was proved wrong, motorcyclists are a hardy bunch
and everyone supported the event well. Our first Treasure Hunt was also
a great day, with groups of people riding around the Forest to try and
find the answers to Steve Bradstocks challenging clues. I realised also
how much the run means to those who take part, Paddy Hinton started the
event following the death of his father, I held the 2001 event in memory
of my mother, but when you are told that three boys all under 16 want
to support the event after what they have been through in the last few
weeks, it makes you humble, and more determined to make this years run
better than ever"
The run will meet at Totton Civic Centre at 11.00. The Cheque presentation
will follow, and the run will leave at 11.30. The route will be through
the Forest and the event will end with it's normal Fun, laughs, band and
auction at Gang Warily in Fawley.
If you are interested in taking part please register via e-mail.
