Venue: Squires Cafe Bar.

The Royal British Legion Riders branch (RBLR) has teamed up with the Iron Butt Association (IBA) to set a new world record by enlisting the help of around 200 motorcyclists to complete a 1000 mile ride in 24 hours.

The current world record is 156 motorcyclists completing a 1000 mile ride in 24 hours.

Motorcyclists willing to take part in the challenge must pay a small entry fee (to cover costs) and be sponsored for the event for a minimum of £50.

Organiser, Paddy McCreanor of the RBLR, said: "The idea is to raise money for the Poppy Appeal, raise awareness of the RBLR and the IBA and of course, set a New World Record!"

There are two routes for the event - the Northern route will follow the A1 to Berwick-upon-Tweed, Edinburgh, Wick, Fort William and back along the M6/M62 and the Southern route will take in Dover, then onto Southampton and Redruth and back again.

Both routes will start and finish at Squires Café.

To break the world record of 1000 miles in 24 hours, the motorcyclists must clock up an average speed of 41.6 mph and document the trip. Riders taking part in the event do not need to ride in a group, just start from and finish at the same place.

More details are available at the website below or from the organiser at north@rblr.co.uk.
