RTTW 2010- Ride to the Wall

thumbs rttw060 RTTW 2010  Ride to the WallJeff Thornton is unable to make the run on Saturday and offers his entry pass to the event. Give him a call.

Meeting at Knutsford Services M6 southbound between J18 & 19 for an 8:30 AM start. Please have a full tank for the day.

The “Ride to the Wall” event is an opportunity for all bikers to pay their respects to those who have lost their lives in conflict’s since the second world war. The event takes place at the National Memorial Arboretum near Burton. The whole day is a moving experience and a worthwhile event.

  1. Andrea and I will be there again, God willing.

  2. I think we will have more Goldwings attend next year. It was short notice but the opportunity to pay our respects and soak up the atmosphere was amazing. No doubt you won’t be on your own.

  3. I know the folk from the club that didnt make it this year because of the short notice are planning on making it next year. Lets hope that people will forget the past few years in the goldwing community and remember why we should be going and join hands in friendship to pay our repects for our fallen heros x

  4. Just to let you all know, that I have just registered both Andrea & I for this years RTTW. http://www.rttw.org/

    Get on and get registered please.

  5. Yes me too, should be a great day out.Suggest we all register for this asap and maybe nearer the time we arrange a bg meet point for Goldwings and have a ride in together.

  6. Pam & I will be there, we have just registered on their site.

  7. Bad news, we can’t go now. I start a RoSPA course on Sat 25 Sep and it runs for six Sat’s, which includes the RTTW day. Needs must.

  8. This is one event we wanted to do as we missed it last year, guess what? we have a family wedding on the same day, I’m so disappointed they clash. Have a great time everyone, and ride safe.

  9. Just registered for this event. Will watch out for convoy down arrangements. Presumably early start for us coming down from Cumbria ?!
    PS – Coming to Blackpool on Saturday so will be able to pay our subs at last!!!

  10. We’ve registed for the event, so weather permiting we’ll be there

  11. We are back on for the RTTW. RoSPA have let me rearrange the training session to another day, whoo ooh. See you all at Knutsford.

  12. Andrea & I will be going with the RBLR guys from Knutsford at 0730hrs. We have a pre arranged RV nearer the place that will be feeding us bacon baguettes and brews for a reasonable cost. Can’t ask for much more really.

    Will no doubt see you all at the Drayton Manor or NMA.

  13. To all going. Have a great ride.

  14. Jackie and I are unable to attend tomorrows run. Have a great day out all of you and remember what its all about. Would you please take pictues of the day for our web gallery and let me have them asap.

    Take care.

  15. Another good day, met John & Maureen Clark, Graham & Sue Pinder and Phil Bowker at the NMA, which was just a chance passing moment around the site, on foot that is.

    Fantastic turnout, much more than last year, took over two hours to get everyone out of Drayton Manor.

  16. I went yesterday & the weather was good thankfully. A long, long day but well worth it. I shed a tear at the service I’ll admit. I enjoyed Graham & Sue and John & Maureen’s company as Pam’s left arm & shoulder were too painful for her to go. Looked out for other Wingers but with so many bikes and riders it was an impossible task! Came back the scenic route as Trikes are charged £5 on the toll road! I suggest a ride to the Arboretum as we couldn’t get near the monument and would be happy to lead it.
