Second KillSpills Rally Saturday 10th September 2005

[cbrbiker]

Message from Stephen Edwards - campaign leader, KillSpills:

Come and join the KillSpills Team in the largest Motorcycle Road Safety Rally in London

The second annual KillSpills Rally (Saturday 10th September 2005) runs from the Ace Café London to the Palace of Westminster via Number 10 Downing Street.

It will be a great fun filled day delivering a serious road safety message to the home of democracy.

Join in the Ace Café's famous annual Birthday bash and then ride through Central London with all road junctions kindly closed by the Metropolitan Police to allow YOU an un-interrupted ride to Westminster. The route we will take will pass a lot of the major sights, so there will be plenty of opportunity for you to wave at passers by and hopefully tell the public about the campaign when you are parked up at Millbank.

As the rally starts from the Ace Café, we ask all riders to be at the Ace for 11am. The KillSpills Team and KillSpills Marshals will be on hand to answer your questions on the campaign and the Metropolitan Police will be there to brief rally riders and to escort the rally to Westminster.

Those of you who joined us last year will (hopefully) have had a memorable day and we look forward to meeting you all again. For those of you who could not make the rally last year, come and join us this year, you don’t know what you are missing!

•-Help us to show the Government and general public that diesel spills present a real danger to ALL road users.

•-Help us to show the Government and general public that us bikers are a caring and responsible group of people, who take the issue of road safety seriously.

The route will take the rally from the Ace Café onto the North Circular road, heading towards Hangar Lane. We then take the A40 to Paddington, Park Lane, Marble Arch, Constitution Hill, Queen Victoria Memorial, The Mall, Trafalgar Square, Whitehall and the bikes will park up along Millbank. On the return journey, the rally will leave Whitehall, go along Birdcage Walk, ride in front of Buckingham Palace and down Constitution Hill, then following the same route back to the Ace Café.

Each rider will receive a goodie bag . This year we have organised a team to hand out A5 flyers to the public around Buckingham Palace, the Mall, Trafalgar Square and Whitehall, explaining what the rally is about.

We had the BBC filming us last year and we will be aiming to get more TV and press coverage this year.

KillSpills T-shirts are available to purchase before the rally…

The KillSpills team really appreciate your support, we can and will make a difference, and your attendance here today re-enforces our safety message.
• Are you fed up with diesel spills on our roads?
• Do you think something should be done about it?
• Do you want to improve road safety?
• Do you want to take part in the largest ever motorcycle rally in London?
If you have answered yes to any of the above questions, then join us and many others at the 2nd annual KillSpills Rally.

Steve

I hope more people off the forum will come this year, it was a really cool feeling riding in such a big group and holding up London traffic.

I would be interested if there were simultaneous/parallel rallies/rides in different parts of the UK. Bit of a haul down to London for a day out.

Still from a political point of view, if it doesn't happen in London then it doesn't matter.

I will express my support by getting a T-shirt.

As I realise I posted this a tad before time, would a kind admin/mod mind making this a sticky for me please? It would be great to improve on the rally attendance figure last year of about 1000 bikes!

Thanks very much!

'Bout time too Ben!

I swear it was earlier last time - July/August. Anyway... September is a bit annoying as that's when the school year starts again. Not gonna miss it though.

[cbrbiker]

[Claud 14.7 to 1]

Hehe ok, no worries my mistake.

[wildcat]

I will be there, as a marshal.
'Tis my birthday that day. can't think of a better way to spend it.
Will probably be leaving from edgware, anyone else in that area???

Fuck yeh i'm IN - Wildcat , i live on camrose avenue - Rex Judd's - but i'll probably go up to Potters Bar to meet up with Smoto, Claud, 89CBRChris and what not who want to ride down with us. Alternatively, i guess people from the north can all pile down to esso at elstree because you can take the A41 down to the 406 intersection that'll lead you onto the ace.

PM me nearer to the time for a meet (Herts usuals + as many of you that are coming from a north or west direction). Jon - i guess if you're willing to go up the M25 for a bit, you'll be bound to find the M1 exit at edgware - basically it's near there. From there to the ace - only 20 mins.

It was a tremendous day the other time and i had a good day. Will be bound to meet more faces.
