Thanks for Egg Run success

AS CHAIRMAN of the Star Bikers Charity Committee I would like to thank everyone that helped make this year’s Egg Run a great day out.
I would like to start by thanking the rest of my newly formed committee for their hard work in helping to organise and promote this year’s event, giving both time and effort to make it all possible.
The Star Bikers Charity Committee would also like to pass on a few thanks to Staffordshire Police’s motorcyclists and car driver, and all our own volunteer marshals. They kept everyone moving and safe between the start at Britannia Stadium and end at the King’s Hall. Thank you to both of the aforementioned venues for their continued support in the staging of the event.
Thanks also go to the Lord Mayor of Stoke-on-Trent who I know had a great time leading the run. Special thanks must again go out to the motorcycle shops for their generosity under today’s financial pressures when donating prizes for our free draw which takes place inside the Kings Hall. They were Bassett’s, Bikerz, B S Bikes, D H Autos, Foley Motorcycles, K2, Norman & Birch, and Websters. Thanks to Andy’s Motorcycles and Trent Trophies who always donate the trophies for best bike, etc. Thank you once again to The Sentinel for its support in advertising the run in the lead up and coverage of the day itself. Thanks to everybody who displayed our posters.
Another good point on the day apart from the number of bikes, scooters, quads, etc, actually on the run, was the number of people who came to stand at the side of the road to give their support, many of whom handed over Easter eggs as the run went past. I would just like to say how grateful we are to everybody who donated to the event, be it with time and effort, Easter eggs or cash donations.
 It is all received with the utmost gratitude. We could not do it without you.
Just one last note, I know it might be a bit colder by then, but it would be fantastic to see each and everyone of you for this year’s 32nd Toy Run. Watch out in The Sentinel closer to December or check our web site. www.stokebikeruns.co.uk.
