Ride to the Wall 2019

The first Saturday in October is firmly in the diary now as the day for the annual Ride to the Wall. A day when thousands of bikers the majority being ex-service people make their way to National Memorial Arboretum for a unique motorcycling event which gives motorcyclists the opportunity to gather together at a place of remembrance, to pay their respects to our serving and fallen service men and women and in doing so, raise funds solely for the purpose of perpetuating their memory and recognising the sacrifice made.

It has become our tradition to gather at the Household Division Memorial at 13:00 hrs to lay a wreath, have a quiet reflection and meet old friends.  A couple of Welsh Guards regulars were hors de combat this year but we were well represented.
