We believe that about 20,000 bikers participated and I am glad to announce that there were no significant accidents on the streets.
A lot of preparation happened before yesterday to make certain that everyone who participated remained safe.
I want to express my gratitude to all those who drove safely and cooperated with us and our associates.

According to her, Dave had been a loyal client for many years and she was acquainted with his relatives. She mentioned that he consistently backed community enterprises.
I knew that Green's Pies were his go-to snack, so I thought it would be a great idea to make some crocheted versions. Meanwhile, my spouse Stephen, who loves to ride motorbikes, headed out to join a ride in Burton-in-Kendal.
According to her, it was a challenge to meet the demand as she managed to sell over 100 items. As a result, she raised a whopping £500 for charity.
All of the earnings are directed to his charitable organizations. He was truly kind and compassionate, which is why I wanted to participate in Dave Day," exclaimed Ms. Gunning.
It's amazing how many individuals have gathered to honor Dave Myers.
