The Glasgow Ride of the
DGR 2019 was a great success – about 200 riders and no rain!
The day before, my
friend's daughter Summer came to my house and we had an afternoon of
baking cakes for the after ride party.
We assembled at a
supermarket carpark in Milngavie.
Motorbike Milly put in an appearance
Then headed off through
Bearsden, Maryhill, and Hillhead to our assembly point in Kelvin Way.
From there it was
through Partick, Clyde Tunnel, and on to Triumph Glasgow for the
after ride party.
There were awards for
Best Bike, Most Dapper Gentleman, and Most Dapper Lady – won by
Summer!
The riders and families
had a great time chatting, looking at the bikes, eating summer's
cakes, and listening to a superb young jazz band.
A great day and at time
of writing, the Glasgow ride raised about £20,000 and the global
amount is US£5.7 million. (£ 4.6 million ). However, there still
time to donate!
