Troop Aid
When Troops return to the United Kingdom from the war zones they arrive back without their personal effects or clothing. The objective of Troop Aid is to supply the 'Basic Essentials' when service casualties reeturn from serving their countyry overseas.

Ride 4 the Wounded  July 8th - 15th

Raising funds for Troop Aid and PilgrimBandits charity

The bike and sidecar will be making its way from Inverness to Plymouth. It will be ridden by wounded soldiers to raise funds for others that have been injured. Money raised will be shared between Troop Aid and Pilgrim Bandits charity. A number of events have been organised along the route to raise much needed funds. The bike will be escorted for stages of the journey by supporters on bikes including the mother of a seriously injured soldier. Sponsors of the event include The National Motorcycle Museum and Best Western Hotels.

The proposed route

 Inverness, Pitlochry, Dunfermline, Selkirk, Durham, York, Doncaster, Kegworth, Allesley, Birmingham, Swindon, Wells, Exeter and Plymouth

This is a big challenge for our injured service personnel so please show them your support by making a donation. Thank you
