    Blood bike east are one of the most active blood bike groups in the country(having done over 600 runs in the past year), they keep four bikes on the road servicing the east coast's hospitals as well as working with other blood groups to provide a national service.

    For those that don't know, they move blood, blood samples, breast milk, bio-chemical samples & just about anything else that can fit onto a bike free of charge.

    Their volunteers pay for their own training and uniforms. The bikes are kept on the road purely through determination and fundraising.

    I figured it's been a while since there was a burger run & BBE always need funds, hence this run.

    For liability reasons, this is not a blood bike east organised run but me organising a run to raise funds for blood bike east( in a fairly amateur fashion).

    There will be a couple of stops on the way to regroup, have a quick coffee and a yap..

    The Details are:

    Start: at the Texaco at the Spawell at 10.30am.
    Price: €10 this covers the cost of the burger, donations are welcome to blood bike east.

    I hope to see you all there for what should be a great run and please give generously.

    I'll get the ball rolling:

    1. me.
    2.
    3.
    4.

    We had 81 bikes, which was a fantastic turnout.

    On behalf of Blood bike east,thank you to everyone that came.

    It's the first time we've had an event of this nature and given the brilliant response today, it wont be the last. watch this space.

    Thanks again.
